Dash and Bella is a great cooking blog with a focus on cooking with and for children. Wonderful recipes, writing and photos, and an overall excellent idea for a food/cooking site. Definitely worth checking out and bookmarking. (Found via the Knopf Doubleday Cooking site.)

This is a photo of the crowd at the very first Vendy Awards in 2005, which was held in a warehouse where vendors store their carts. The event sure has come a long way. It is now a veritable NYC institution. And The 2010 Vendy Awards takes place this Saturday at Governors Island. General admission tickets are sold out, but donor packages are still available. Check out the site for more details.
From Taqueria Cancun in San Francisco, CA. Best burritos ever. Best food ever.
That is a plate of the most delicious home-cooked Southern-style fried chicken, made by our friend Chris. He prepared this meal and invited us over to make a point.
A few weeks back we took him to our favorite joint for fried chicken, because, according to us, this place serves up the “best fried chicken ever.” He dissed it. We had words. He said he would show us fried chicken done right by cooking some up himself.
Well, he was right. We were wrong. And I am so very glad he put his money where his mouth was and proved us so very wrong. My god, I could have eaten that whole plate. I wish I had eaten that whole plate. It was that good. The best fried chicken ever!
From Bark. Delicious. Perfect late lunch.
