A different kind of bread pudding, plus my sister's new food(ish) blog


Been having a lot of fun at work lately, writing about these adorable Easter-themed (and easy to make) cake pops, as well as a Mexican bread pudding called capirotada that is full of dried fruit, nuts, brown sugar syrup and, of all things, cheese.





My sister, Chelsea, and I have been talking a lot more about food lately. She's always been an astute shopper, but now her focus is on ingredients. We talk about genetically modified seeds, so-called "natural" chicken, organic milk, "Fresh" the movie, rice bread and grocery store prices. We're both officially food dorks in the best kind of way. I was bugging her this weekend about starting a food blog. She needed a place to share her discoveries, like the bruschetta grilled cheese she'd just made. And then just like that ('cause that's how my determined sister rolls), she started Simplicated. I'm so excited that she's at least testing out the blogging waters, now matter how much it ends up being about food.
