This week was a crazy tough week. Filled with so many mixed emotions, from joy, to sympathy, to love and community, to frustration and back to sympathy again.

That’s a LOT to take in, in one week!  I hope many of you were able to enjoy a ‘peanut butter pie‘ with your families.  If you missed it, Todd and Diane, the incredible team of White on Rice, did their ‘thing’ and put together an extraordinary video tribute to Mikey, Jennie and how the the food blogging community rallied in support.


This morning it was such a welcome relief to sit at my computer with a steaming cup of coffee and enjoy what all have you have been up to!  You all inspire me ………..here’s a few that caught my eye this week.
