Choose Your Egg.


"Cage Free", our eggs of choice.



















Choice is a good thing. And while we don't believe Americans necessarily need 67 brands of candy bars to choose from, we do appreciate our various options for eggs:  free range, cage free, vegetarian diet, organic, grass fed, brown, white, large, jumbo, 6-pack, dozen, 18-pack...just to name a few.

Price used to be our only determining factor when purchasing eggs. But after watching "Food Inc.", we've modified our thinking. And while it's still tough to sort through all the marketing and buzz words associated with today's foods, we think shopping at a reputable grocery store may be the ultimate key.

Our supermarket of choice is "Whole Foods". Specializing in natural and organic products, they put our ethical shopping radar system at ease--so we feel good about the groceries we buy (especially eggs!).

We want to hear what you think about eggs. Does free range, cage free, organic, etc... matter to you? Where do you buy your eggs? White or brown?

A Few Of Our Favorite Sweets.

Chocolate tortilla chips, from "Food Should Taste Good".
























Tiramisu, from "Whole Foods Market". Recipe, here.



















Red velvet cupcake, from "Trophy Cupcakes", Seattle.



















The cannoli. (Photo from "Serious NY Eats").

















I have to admit, this post is making me drool. First off, if you haven't had the chocolate tortilla chips (from "Food Should Taste Good"), you are missing an amazing, salty-sweet experience. And the tiramisu from "Whole Foods Market" is ridiculous. We also love the scrumptious, velvety smooth red velvet cupcake from Seattle's very own, "Trophy Cupcakes". And lastly, can you really go wrong with a cannoli? Mascarpone, chocolate chips, crispy shell...oh lord, there's the drool again...

Part of our extended "Featherette Favorites" series. Stay tuned--more faves all this week!
