@PoorOldMama... sorry you didn't hear about this year's FOODSTOCK, but look out for more FOODSTOCK conferences in years to come!

9 Oscar Dogs Inspired by the 2012 Best Picture Nominees

Leandra - Thanks! I'm glad you dig the dogs!

Jim Bob - Yeah spam would have been very appropriate on the Hawaii dog!

And for all you "Southern Dog" voters - yeah, that one was one of my favorites. Gravy on fried chicken sausage is pretty delicious!

Cook the Book: 'The Mozza Cookbook'

The most memorable Italian meal I ever had was when an Italian nonna, Loradonna, in Tuscany, taught me how to make potato gnocchi with roasted red pepper and parmigiano sauce. It was the single best bite of food I have ever had, and one of the best cooking experiences and meals of my life.

Welcome To Cutty's Week. Here's Your Breakfast.

Wow! I can't believe they're getting their own week here at SE, but how great - their sandwiches are seriously delicious!

Cereal Eats: Grape Nuts, Neither A Grape Nor a Nut—Discuss

Leanadra! I TOTALLY AGREE! I am obsessed with Grape Nuts... in fact, I once made a video about my love of Cheerios and Grape Nuts, which I eat just about every single morning, for my blog: http://bit.ly/qREpeZ
So happy you posted this!

Cereal Eats: The Troubled Relationship Between Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Golden Grahams

A Sandwich a Day: Grilled Pimento Cheese Sandwich at Early Girl Eatery in Asheville, NC

Early Girl Eatery is one of my favorite restaurants anywhere! Never got around to trying that sandwich but it looks good... And they have biscuits to die for - the best I've ever had in the south: http://bit.ly/ngyNBp

Come on in 'The Kitchn'

@Shelbsthomcat - yeah I love the avocado on there too! adds an extra creamy, fatty (as if there wasn't already the bacon) layer!

I LOVE beet tzatziki! What a perfect combination. Also works great in a sandwich:

Meet and Eat: Will Levitt, Serious Eats Summer Intern

@sastribling... Glad to hear someone else had Gourmet so central in their life in junior high! I think when I was reading it back then I certainly felt like the only one!

A Sandwich a Day: Georgia Reuben from Hi-Rise Bread Company in Cambridge, MA

@J.W. Hamner - yep I've seen those Yelp posts about service too. I've never really had a problem with it, they've always been perfectly nice... and at the end of the day they serve me a perfectly good sandwich, so I really can't complain.

Served: Making a Life with Cheese

Hannah,

What a great piece! Cheese really is an important cornerstone of the culinary world... I'd love to hear more specifics on the cheeses you are into. Also, how did you end up educating yourself on cheese if not through the person at that restaurant? Any good books?

I run a blog on cooking and college, The Dorm Room Dinner, and recently had my first attempt at homemade cheese: http://tinyurl.com/629ug94
