Can't Keep a Good Idea Down.

Posted by Jacqueline Church Jun 24, 2008

When I saw these popsicles in NYMag.I thought hey, they stole my idea...! Remember the Granita? It just goes to show you that when an idea has arrived, it has arrived.

Here's another idea; A culinary calendar. There are some fantastic classes and events, some of them once in a lifetime opportunities...really not to be missed if possible. How about cooking classes with master chefs, top restauranteurs and sommeliers?

The first Slow Food Nation event in San Francisco? Got it.

Or, if a wedding is on your calendar (and your friends are really special AND you're really rich) why not stock their newlywed pantry? This is Dean and Deluca (whose catalog is fondly referred to as food porn in many households...) going over the top, once again. Follow the link to fully stocked luxurious pantry. Everything here for the lucky couple setting up house. Artisanal oils and vinegars, Italian sauces and pastas, herbs, arborio rice, finishing salts, pure maple syrup and pancake mix...it even includes a canvas and leather tote for that time in the distant future when a shopping trip will be needed.
