Kitchen Gadgets

Woo Hoo!! I feel very blissful! A little late and way overdue, but nevertheless--I Won a Foodie Giveaway!!

A while back, like six or seven weeks ago, I won some really cool kitchen gadgets on a giveaway that Chef Bliss offered on her 100th post. It's taken me this long to blog about it because I was so busy promoting my new cookbook, Foods and Flavors of San Antonio, with a month-long Fiesta of Foods and Flavors on my Foods and Flavors of San Antonio blog. How many times can I say foods and flavors in the same sentence without repeating myself or without being irritating?

I love all these kitchen gadgets and The Original Dutch Caramel Wafers were awesome! Thanks so much, Chef Bliss! If you haven't been to her blog, be sure to go over to see what she's got cooking. She's got the secret ingredient to cooking and life: She's blissful!

Second Sunday San Antonio

There's a new foodie blog event at Foods and Flavors of San Antonio.

Second Sunday San Antonio. We all cook the same recipe from my new cookbook, then compare notes and see what everyone's dish looks like. This month we're making Mexican Pork Chops (click the link for all the details and the recipe).

Several foodies have already made this and everyone has said it's absolutely delicious. I can vouch for that; it's my favorite recipe in my cookbook.

We'd love to have you cook along with us. The round-up will be posted on April 12th, which is the Second Sunday of this month.
Hope you'll participate!
