- There’s a new cupcake bakery in Pleasantville, NY! Flour & Sun Bakery is having its grand opening on the 21st, but it’s open now. I bought a half dozen assorted cupcakes today — I’ll taste test them with my parents and the boys after dinner tonight. (Denise, the owner, sealed my box with a sticker so I’m not tempted to sneak one beforehand.) I’m particularly excited about the chocolate Guinness with vanilla buttercream.
- GoPicnic seems almost too good to be true: ready to eat meals, all-natural and with no high-fructose corn syrup or trans fats, all in a cool package. Kosher, vegan, and gluten-free varieties are available. Seems like you can only buy them online right now. I can see these being terrific if you’re on airplanes a lot, are taking a road trip, or just have a very busy schedule with kids where you’re eating in the car between activities.
- I can’t stop reading about food storage and emergency preparedness. I’m not interested in extensive food storage for our household, but the organizational aspect of it appeals to me! Check out Shelf Reliance, which sells a wide range of freeze-dried foods and some can rotation systems for the very serious stockpiler. Jodi and Julie’s Food Storage Made Easy blog is also a fascinating read.

I thought the cupcakes at Flour and Sun were good but not fabulous. Nevertheless, I’m hopingto stop by Sunday to get a “Lucky” cupcake because it’s just got such a Voodoo Donut vibe.
