Freaky Food Fun: Spaghetti-Laced Hot Dogs.

By Chrisjob

Yeah, so, the details are in Russian, but it's one of those projects where the photo conveys the step-by-stepness: gather some hot dogs (or my fave alternatives, the Tofurky Chipotle Franks by Turtle Island or SoyBoy NotDogs), insert some uncooked pasta, and then boil until al dente.

New Crush:Matthew Mead

By beccajo

OH Matthew Mead, where have you been all my life?

First, you pimp an IKEA lantern.

Then, you make a delish salad (perfect for my poker/taco night Thursdays).

But Matthew, you had me at 'hello' with these, genius, ruffled skirts for ice cream cones.

Be sure to check out his archives too.  

Along with Tracy Porter, I'm loving the trend towards more maximalist living.

Not quite shabby Chic, not quite Martha.....what would we call this?
