I have something very scary to show you and I’m very sorry in advance. Someone decided it was a good idea to make a statue of Disney Princess Belle constructed entirely out of Peeps, a decidedly awful and sticky candy. There are 1,500 Peeps that make up this freaky statue. Belle was created for the Carroll County Art Council‘s 10th Anniversary PEEPshow, and it’s currently in 10th place (a Pikachu statue is currently in first.)
In order to wrap our heads around this thing, we have questions that need answers.

As the snow slowly melts from the ground (and in our hearts) we can finally see the tiny promise that is summer. It might only be April — just the beginning of spring — but I’m already daydreaming about all the things I want to do once it’s July. I plan on going to the beach, reading all the books, making weird but cool popsicles (more on that later), and drinking all the beverages.
Speaking of beverages, I recently found this gorgeous (yet practical) two-gallon Mason jar drink dispenser that would be pretty perfect for all that summer entertaining I’ve also been dreaming about. Just imagine all the big-batch cocktails you could make (and show off) in this thing! Right now you can buy it on Amazon for a little less than $20.

Church cookbooks were once so common, they were considered unremarkable. Living in the South, I know the scene well — Ladies League recipe pamphlets and community cookbooks litter the shelves of thrift stores. Yet the best food writers seek these records out, both as a means of preservation and as a way to gain insight on recipes that truly tell the stories of regional foodways and the cuisines of other cultures.
So I shouldn’t have been surprised when, in researching Greek recipes for tzatziki, Greek dressing, and Greek salad, I found that a Church cookbook would be one of the most recommended, well-loved, and trusted resources. The Complete Book of Greek Cooking by the Recipe Club of Saint Paul’s Greek Orthodox Cathedral is a compilation of two previous best-sellers with a rich history of over 50 years of women cooking and recording the recipes of their heritage.
