Five foodie-finds for Friday, April 5th.

April 5, 2013 6 Comments
nwafoodie unique kitchen gadgets and food

Friday. Friday. Friday. Hello lovely beautiful Friday. Your Friday is going to get even lovelier because you are going to want to buy every single one of today’s foodie finds.

It’s okay.

You are worth it.

1.

French copper bowl for Kitchenaid mixer. This unlined copper bowl is made in France as an exact retrofit for your Kitchenaid mixer. This is for the ultimate foodie who wants a perfectly whipped egg or absolute perfection when candy making.  Scratch that, forget perfection… look how gorgeous that shiny copper bowl is!  This is going on my wish-list right (after I buy a Kitchenaid mixer). Wouldn’t you just love one of these?

 

2.

Fox’s U-Bet Chocolate Syrup. Craving chocolate?  Fox’s U-Bet chocolate syrup has been made in Brooklyn by H. Fox & Company since 1895 and was and is the preferred syrup used in both fountain and home made egg creams in the New York area.  That’s a serious claim by Yankees who are serious about their food.

3.

Organic orange zest.  My super friend VickiW excitedly told me about these adorable little packets of spices that come in handy teaspoon sized packets. On Saturday she gifted me a packet of orange zest and lemon zest so now I am always a pantry-length away from any recipe that calls for it.  C’mon, a foodie must always be prepared and ready to wow.  Thanks VickiW!

4.

Hand-painted pantry cabinet knobs.  These make me smile.  It also makes me wonder who would put these on their cabinets.  I think I would want to be their friend.

5.

Grill’n Barbecue Branch Skewer.  This skewer had me when it said, “holds twice as much as a traditional skewer.”  This is a manly tool and a perfect gift to give when your copper Kitchenaid mixer bowl arrives on your doorstep.  You’re welcome.

Happy Friday!

Lyndi

Eat well, my friends. Eat well.

Ever wonder why a crackling fire draws you towards Ever wonder why a crackling fire draws you towards it like a moth to a flame? The fire’s warmth is more than just heat; the foods you cook on a flame add more than nourishment.⁠
⁠
One of my favorite memories as a kid growing up in the Research Triangle in North Carolina was the annual church hayride at the country home of our friends, the Barbours. We lived in a suburb of the state capital, close to physically yet far away from life on the outskirts of town filled with Tobacco fields, cotton patches, and red dirt roads. ⁠
⁠
The Barbours had some farm that my little self couldn’t comprehend. In reality, they may have had just land, yet to me; land meant a farm. And besides, they had a big ol’ barn, tractors, and hosted the annual hayride.⁠
⁠
My favorite part of the memory was the firepit, where everyone gathered around, laughed, and enjoyed each other’s company. It didn’t matter if you were a kid or elderly. ⁠
⁠
You may think, “But I don’t have a fireplace or firepit! What can I do?” ⁠
⁠
Improvise.⁠
⁠
Youtube a crackling fireplace video or a firepit on a beach. Dim the lights and turn the crackle up. Invite yourself to a friend’s home with ample backyard and offer to bring ‘smores. Go to a park.⁠

Webster’s Dictionary has two excellent definitio Webster’s Dictionary has two excellent definitions for the word nourishment. One is “to provide with food,” and the other is “to provide for,” to provide support.⁠
⁠
I love that.⁠
⁠
Just as food sustains and keeps us alive, feeling supported sustains us mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. It’s how we build bonds, friendships, and hope for the future.⁠

“Stop sneaking the spiced candied pecans!” I s “Stop sneaking the spiced candied pecans!” I said this not once, not twice, but almost three times before Dennis beat me to say those words again. “I’m sneaking some more,” he happily declared.⁠
⁠
I’m delighted that he was enjoying them! I assured him that he could have allllll that his little heart desired… he just had to allow me to take a few photos for you!⁠
⁠
You see these spiced candied pecans are simple and easy go-to appetizers that we should always have the ingredients on hand. For those “just in case” moments when… ⁠

Cheers!⁠
⁠
Did you know that folks in the UK will use the word “cheers” as “thank you?” From wedding toasts to praising someone for remarkable achievement, raising a glass with a special someone is a special bonding moment.⁠
⁠
I love that part about “cheers” and “thank” can be the same. ⁠
⁠
Have you ever wanted to become more thankful? More grateful? More appreciative of, well, everything that we take for granted?⁠
⁠
Why not give thanks and cheer a little more often?⁠

“Just like becoming an expert in wine–you learn by drinking it, the best you can afford–you learn about great food by finding the best there is, whether simply or luxurious. Then you savor it, analyze it, and discuss it with your companions, and you compare it with other experiences.” – Julia Child
