Bake Cookies in Your Car

If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen. Better yet, get into your car.
Actually the heat in the car is enough to bake cookies. Check out the article. Perfect for those men who are obsessed with their cars.
Another excuse to spend your time drooling over your wheels.

Here is a game. Feel free to Play. You can add a question if you like.

Would you rather eat pasta every day for a month or pizza for a month?
Would you rather give up on bread or give up on cheese?
Would you rather a big kitchen with a few gadgets or a small kitchen with the best gadgets?
Would you rather give up sugar or give up fried foods?
Would you rather eat moldy cheese or freezer burnt bread?

My Barbecue Last Night.



I tried grilling every vegetable possible. It was great except for the cucumbers on the grill. I thought I would give it a try. Nasty!

Cache Seattle

I just discovered Cache Seattle. It's a private dinner club in Belltown.
People sit together, communal style and the menu has a different theme each time.
The price is a suggested donation which includes food, drinks and wine. The only downfall is that is sold out until the end of October.
I found this on Delicious City.

New Restaurant in Ballard- Austin Cantina

There is a new visitor in town. Austin Cantina, a Tex Mex Restaurant opening on September 1.
I have a good feeling about the restaurant especially since there will be some interesting dishes like the chile dusted calamari with chipotle mayonnaise and the empanada de plantain made of mozarella, chorizo sausage poblano chiles and warm corn tortillas.
The enchilada filling options are mole, pot roast, pulled pork or vegan zucchini stew.
Judging from the chef's blog, it will be a nice, friendly place and as I noticed on the menu, the prices will be quite reasonable. I strongly believe that you can't judge a person, until you've read their blog.

Will you be one of the first to try?

Austin Cantina
5809 24 Av NW
