Why Is America So Obsessed with Cupcakes Lately?
They’re tiny and overpriced but nonetheless delicious “gourmet” treats. America's cupcake obsession is spread long and far. I’m not sure if it's the trendy shop itself or perhaps the huge variety of mouth watering flavors that make cupcakes so tempting to the passerby. All around the country in virtually every city and town you are sure to find one of these trendy cupcakeries, a bakery dedicated to producing cupcakes. And it’s not just a fad anymore; with 669 million cupcakes sold from October 2010- October 2011, we have to admit that this obsession is serious. From Georgetown Cupcakes to Magnolia Bakery, we know the names well and there is certainly no shortage of cupcakes to fuel America’s obsession. So where did this cupcake obsession come from anyway?

Lobster Fondue
I love this recipe for a party. It is elegant, delicious, and can be served on a buffet family style or served in individual portion sizes for a more formal dinner party. Aside from the lobster it is pretty cost effective and I have always found it to be a crowd pleaser. I recently made it as a special for my restaurant and the guests LOVED it. I hope you enjoy it!

Unique Bread for Grilled Cheese
If there is one food that screams all-American lunch it's the grilled cheese. Toasty buttered bread, edges just slightly burnt, crust crumbly and crunchy, with that all important melty, oozing cheese. That is the basic, the stable of countless families, from the young child, to the busy young adult to the independent grandpa.

Wild Garlic Aioli
Now what really is Aioli, some times spelt Aoli or Allioli? All pronounced Ay-Oh-Lee. Of course it’s a garlic mayonnaise of sorts but, to use eggs or not to use eggs? Traditionally Spanish aioli was made with out eggs carefully emulsifying garlic with oil. Aioli originates from France but it has become popular in Italy, Spain, Portugal and Malta not to mention Britain, although often we cheat mixing a garlic clove in a pot of ready-made mayonnaise! While the Italians add mashed potato and the Maltese tomato. But I came across an emulsified quick and easy milk version from a Spanish chef friend, which fascinated me, I’d never seen anything like it before and had to experiment.
