While I am away from the kitchen I leave you with pictures of flowers...

On organic hot dog stands and other NYC treats

Since I am in NYC at the moment and am not able to do that much cooking/baking (not that I'd really want to...), I thought I'd share a few of my favorite places to grab a bite in NYC with you. Obviously there are (what seems like) infinite places to eat oneself through in this city, and I continuously discover new gems, so simply consider this a short little list of a few locations I believe are worthy of a visit. 

Strawberry cupcakes with vanilla buttercream - smiles guaranteed.

First I say that I have trouble putting berries into baked goods once we've passed the height of summer, and then I go making these scones and now these cupcakes. I don't know what came over me, but I am so glad that it did.
