Chocolate Souffle

I have never made a souffle before actually I have never even eaten a souffle before. For the Daring Cooks Challenge I was given a few recipes to choose from or I could even find my own recipe but the hubby and the little boy both voted for the chocolate. I I spent one afternoon baking chocolate souffle's while the hubby was at a football game and the six year old was running around bouncing off the furniture.

"A soufflé is a very sexy pudding. It has to be light, not taste too eggy, be crisp on top and slightly moist in the centre and for any good soufflé, the only way is up". - Gordon Ramsey

With no real basis for comparison I think that they worked out pretty well. They didn't rise evenly but they were light, airy, delicious and of course sexy.

Fisher's Popcorn

#26.    Fisher's popcorn downy ocean, hon!

Yum! The caramel popcorn is my favorite but if you are like my son and don't like the caramel...they have other flavors and if you really have to have it and can't get down to the ocean http://www.fisherspopcorn.com/.

Little Havana & AVAM

I recently had relatives that came to visit us here in Baltimore but didn't have too much time available to spend with me and you know that whatever we did together would have to involve food!

I took them to the American Visionary Art Museum which is an amazing non-traditional museum. We spent all morning there looking around and after we went to Little Havana for some lunch.

Cuban Sandwich & Sweet Potato Fries

Pan Con Bistec Sandwich & Sweet Potato Fries

The fat-free habanero Remoulade is to die-for...ask for a side of it even if it doesn't come with your meal!

Bitchin' Kitchen

OK so you all watch Jersey Shore or Jerseylicous...I watch Bitchin' Kitchen. I love how her kitchen matches her outfits...and the food always looks easy and interesting.

I have never wanted to make Puttanesca before (anchovies yuck) but at the end of the episode I had to try it.

Sushi 101 Classes at RA

RA Sushi is having these sushi 101 classes that are an amazing deal. For about$25.00 a person (including gratuity) you can meet new people over miso soup and edamame, learn how to make three different types of sushi (and eat them too).

Yes I made this sushi!

Find them on Facebook to get info and sign up for a class.  

Thrasher's Fries

We went to Ocean City for a weekend in October...yes it's a bit too cold to go swimming in the Ocean this time of year but it is still a great time to go.

Maybe the rides aren't running but you still have clear beaches...

And there is room to sit down and people watch (you know the few people on the boardwalk).

It's not to hot and it's not too crowded...unless you go to Thrasher's.

#17.  Thrasher's french fries from the boardwalk in Ocean City.

Yes, this is the line for Thrasher's fries in OCTOBER! This is why the boarwalk and beaches are clear everyone is in line for fries.

As you slowly inch your way closer to the front you are thankful for the heat they generate in there but when you actually get up there it's almost hot enough to say forget it after waiting almost 40 minutes...

Almost that hot but not quite. I do love me some fried salty potatoes. But just imagine it in the summer time...
