Foodbuzz has a Tastemaker Program, which occassionally offers ingredients or products to featured publishers, to sample and enjoy. Recently, Foodbuzz offered us the chance to try a sampling of Cowgirl Chocolates, and Christey and I couldn’t exactly turn down samples of handmade chocolate.

Gourmet Chocolate? With chili peppers?

Christey here. So a couple people have been posting pictures/recipes of cupcakes lately in the food community, which ALWAYS gets me craving cake/cupcakes.

So of course it got me again this time and now I present to you my own Halloween CUPCAKES!

When I was a kid, Labor Day was the end of summer, the transition into the new year, perhaps more important in a kid’s life (or at least more relevant) than New Year’s Day.

New cartoons on Saturday morning, new TV shows at night, a new school year, a new teacher, new friends, and old friends who looked new after a summer of growth.

The Labor Day weekend blast has lost its origins as a watered down, US version of May Day, a socialist-phobic version of the worker’s holiday. Now, it’s celebrated in American style with picnics, cookouts, and, typically, watermelon.

Plenty of watermelon.
