fancy food 

I’ve been at the Fancy Food Show in San Francisco all weekend.  We have some things we should discuss: flavored sugars, Barefoot Contessa and just how seriously some people take their bottled water.  

More later.

    Wow, I have always thought that the Barefoot Contessa would smell really amazing. Soft. Really I can’t describe it any other way.

    I LOVE the Fancy Food Show. Two years ago it was the Year of the Flavored Salt. This year is the Year of the Bottled Waters? I had the pleasure of a quick chat with The Barefoot Contessa when I was there. She was lovely, approachable and it was…..wow!! Enjoy!
