A Southern Grace: i'm no david letterman, but...

i'm no david letterman, but...

Yum

...Michelle, the brilliant and creative blogger behind Culinography, wants to see my top ten best pictures, so a top ten list I shall do.

Ready or not, here they come...
[from oldest (and most amateur) to newest (and still amateur, but to a lesser degree)]:

bedazzled bread:


bean salad:


sweet potato casserole:


peas & dumplins:


shortbread cookies (so proud of that sheep!):


roasted tomatoes:


ginger biskies:


miniature toitle cheesecakes:


butter mints:


mint brownies:



I'd like to see top ten pictures from the following, if they're up to it (and haven't already done it):

Katie of Salt and Chocolate
Lore of Culinarty
Diva of The Sugar Bar
ovenhaven of :: epicurean escapism ::
Pam of sidewalk shoes

A few last thoughts:
1. It's Kitchen Klutzes of America Day!


Celebrate your disasters!

2. It's Friday the 13th. Watch out for black cats, spilled salt, and broken mirrors.

3. Today also marks the end of Tastespotting as we know it. I want to know who's starting the support group, because Lord knows we'll need it...

I love your pics, especially the mini turtle cheesecakes, mmmmm, beautiful! Speaking of pics, have you been to Tastespotting today? I'm so bummed out. :(

Seeing those baby sheep made me feel like buying a puppy for my kids.

Yummy pictures!

Lyb, I kept wondering yesterday why no new pictures were being posted. This is awful! I loved that site and found most of the blogs I read today from there. What will I do with the countless hours I spent? How will I find new blogs?! I may need therapy for this. Bummed too.

Your pictures always make my mouth water!

My picture should be Kitchen Klutzes instead of Homer's. :)

Lore said...

Lovely pictures! I find the sheep, the brownie, the butter mints, the ginger biskies and the miniature cheescake simply stunning!
And yes I'm up to it. I'm just so behind on my awards posts, so unless there's some time limit attached to it, I would gladly join the fun.

Beautiful photos, Grace!

Send me an invitation to the first Tastespotting support meeting - I'm devastated.

Cookie baker Lynn said...

Aw, lovely. I'm especially fond of the sheep. Would you make a batch of those for the first meeting of the Death of Tastespotting support group?

RecipeGirl said...

All great choices. You have some good food porn.

I'm in for the support group!!!!

That's a great top 10!

If I had to choose I'd go for the sheep cookie (just too cute!) followed by the tomatoes (which I am now craving).
And I'm so bummed Tastespotting is gone, such awesome photos which led me to great recipes and blogs!

I can't decide which ones I like better! I especially like the one of the miniature cheesecakes!

What a great Top 10 list! I particularly like the Mint brownie and the "action" shot of the mini toitle cheesecakes.

I like Letterman's Top 10 but always find that the number 1 answer isn't always that good. I love Great Moments in Presidential Speeches too. My husband and I laugh so hard at some of those lol
