Frosting and a Smile

Here's a blog that I learned about from Valerie Tysanner, co-host of WBRE's PA Live! This is the blog of WBRE alum Laurie M., who writes about her love of baking, and shares her favorite recipes for cookies, cakes, cupcakes, frostings, and all sorts of other deliciousness.  Check it out!

Sweet Caroline's Corner

May as well start the new year by getting back in the habit of actually posting blogs! While we've got quite a backlog to work from, here's one that just came in today.

Sweet Caroline's Corner
http://www.sweetcarolinescorner.com/

I've recently came across Nepa Blogs and I was incredibly surprised since I didn't know that nepa have such a big community of blogs. My name is Caroline and I'm the author of Sweet Caroline's Corner, a little blog where I share recipes and other things about life. I would love if you could link my blog on Nepa Blogs!

Hooray! If you have or know of a blog from NEPA that we don't have linked yet, let us know and we'll get to it - hopefully, sooner rather than later!

From the Mailbag: The Slavic Kitchen

Here's a letter we received today for a new blog focusing on Eastern European cooking:

Hello! I am venturing out into the wide world of Blogging and looking to network with locals. I was wondering if you could help me out by listing me, or helping me introduce myself?
My website is www.theslavickitchen.com
I intend to use it to list and experiment with eastern European cuisine as it were, also known as 'local favorites' :) I may even use it to drum up support to open my own foodservice business of some sort. Its not entirely all tidied up yet, but I should have just about everything where I want it within the week. Thanks!
-Deb

I can't wait to see what kind of recipes Deb will have to share with us.  Keep checking back for more updates!

Facebook Fresh

We've been adding several new subscribers to our Facebook Group over the past few weeks.  With new subscribers, comes fresh blood into the NEPA Blogosphere.  I'm sure I'm leaving out a few, but here are 3 new blogs that we weren't already linked to:


Rants From My Crazy Kitchen

http://rantsfrommycrazykitchen.com

From the AboutHi! Welcome to Rants From My Crazy Kitchen! Here you will find all kinds of recipes, tips, rants on days when recipes I try don’t come out like I wanted and some reviews of recipes from cookbook and restaurants. Me? I’m Bernadette. My husband is Don and  I’m a stay at home mom currently to a beautiful almost 3-year-old girl, Amanda. Amanda doesn’t like to eat at all. I like good food but I know how to eat healthy, even if I don’t always. I hope you enjoy what you find here, and if you have any questions or comments (or complaints) you can contact me at bernadet@ptd.net.

Her Way At Crabtree Gardens

http://crabtreegardens.wordpress.com

From the About: "Hi! My name is Sandi Crabtree, I’m an avid gardener and owner of 2 businesses; Crabtree Gardens, LLC which is a five acre chemical-free naturalized cottage garden and Cottage at Crabtree Gardens Guest House which is my English inspired B&B located next to the gardens. 

I also hold a certificate in Garden and Interior Design from Inchbald School of Design. I’m a garden coach, club speaker, and also develop and teach workshops at Crabtree Gardens. I love the soil, nature, designing gardens and writing about them.

I live in Northeastern PA with my wonderful and supportive husband David. I’ve been gardening for over thirty years and hope to garden for at least 30 more, if my body will allow me too. I’m also finding pleasure in photographing nature in my gardens for my website and this blog."

Danielle Pasternak, Wedding Coordinator Blog

http://dpnak.com/blog/

From the About:  "...When I was a little girl, I would dress up my grandparent’s and have them play ‘wedding’. I remember clipping a white rag to my grandmother’s head, making her a bouquet out of napkins and lining an aisle with stuffed animals. I would make sure every detail was ‘just right’, hit play on my little purple cassette player and direct the entire wedding. Then, I would have them go back and do it all over again. By my count, my grandparents were not only married for more than 50 years, but at least 147 times."


All of these blogs have been added to the blog roll for your reading pleasure.  You should also consider joining our Facebook Group, if you haven't already.  You will be able to connect with several area bloggers in a relaxed online atmosphere!  

Happy Saturday :)

Cooking with Booze

Some blogs have cryptic titles, titles that are based on quotes from literature or have odd little stories behind them or are otherwise incomprehensible without some explanation.

Cooking with Booze isn't one of those blogs.

Cooking with Booze
Recipes from Laura's Kitchen
http://boozecooking.blogspot.com

Cooking with Booze is a recipe blog by Laura Herron, a Pastry Arts student at Luzene County Community College's Joseph A. Pagliante Culinary Institute, located in downtown Nanticoke. Every single recipe on her blog (as far as I ca tell) calls for some sort of booze - whether it's Veal Scallopini with Lemon-Sherry Sauce, or Cornish Game Hens with Lemon-Wine-Rosemary Marinade (made with Chardonnay or Pinot Grigio), or Grilled Mojito Chicken, or the somewhat more blunt Pork Roast with Beer (which opens with the statement "This recipe is so easy that you could train a monkey to make it.") If you like cooking and you like booze - or if you just like good food, and like finding delicious new recipes - this is definitely a blog you should check out!

It's a Keeper

From the NEPA Blogs mailbag:

My name is Christina Hitchcock and I'm a food blogger. On my site, It's a Keeper (http://www.everydaytastes.com), I'm blogging my way through my recipe pile (ala Julie and Julia style). I started with a pile of 300 + recipes that I've collected and decided to cook my way through them and report the results back to my readers.

I've been featured a number of times (see my I've been Featured page - http://www.everydaytastes.com/ive-been-featured/) in The Times Tribune, Happenings Magazine and on WNEP. Plus, my husband and I have 2 cookbooks.

Christina is from Madison Township. It's very exciting to know that someone like her is right here in Northeastern Pennsylvania! Be sure to check out her blog, and all the recipes that have gotten her stamp of approval, at It's a Keeper!


If you blog in Northeastern Pennsylvania, blog about Northeastern Pennsylvania, or used to live in Northeastern Pennsylvania and have a blog, please contact us at nepablogs@gmail.com so we can list you!

Cooking Like Keller

"Cooking Like Keller" is a demonstrative cooking blog of a former NEPA resident. I will be adding this blog to the "Bloggers Originally From NEPA" section to the sidebar.

From the About section: Chronicling the culinary misadventures of an amateur chef in his attempts to cook and eat the most delicious food possible.

My first question after reading this blog was "Who is Keller? And why is the author cooking like him?" The answer of this question was found with a simple search of Wikipedia. The chef aspires to cook like his idol Chef Thomas Keller who is known for being a famous French cook.

**Michelle's Sidebar: If "Unexplained Things" was our first official Tumblr blog added to the site. Make "Cooking Like Keller" the second official Tumblr blog addition. As you can see from the differences in these two blog setups, Tumblr appears to be a highly customizable blogging platform much like Wordpress or Blogger.
