Holiday Hooch

Just had to post a link to this adorable holiday cocktail, the Mistletoe and Holly. I'm not sure how it tastes—I'm somewhat skeptical about the flavor combination of cranberry juice, peppermint schnapps, and matcha powder—but it looks so horribly festive that I'd be tempted to give it a whirl anyway.

Mmm, Pumpkiny

Sorry for the infrequent posts, but work has been insane. And weekends have hardly been less nuts. However, I just saw this divine recipe and wanted—nay, needed—to share it with you. Commence Homer Simpson–esque drooling.

Potions Lesson

You've gotta hand it to Martha Stewart (or M Diddy, her prison moniker, if you prefer)—she may have an irritatingly Connecticut television personality, but the lady can cook. And decorate. In honor of Halloween, I am hereby going to link to Martha's Spooky Halloween Spirits. Now, I personally think that there are so many more options than those provided, but these are a good jumping-off point, and have turned me on to something I never knew existed: black vodka. Time to get me some of that and whip up some new Halloween concoctions. I think it's decent quality, and it just looks beyond nifty.

The Food of Love

If you want some breakfast food of love, try these super-simple heart-shaped fried eggs.
For what is obviously the dessert of love, why don't you whip up these decadent naughty ice cream sandwiches (made with Kahlua and dark chocolate brownies and Bailey's-spiked ice cream)?

Mmmm, lovelicious.
