Food Porn

I’ve always liked cooking. During my earlier years I used to be an avid, chubby little baker. Women on my Dad’s side of the family are foodies. My grandma worked in food service, and she remembers family events by what was served. No joke. (“Do you remember Arlyse’s 25th wedding anniversary, and Patsy made that potato salad with real mayonnaise?”)

My sister and I together are an unstoppable force. She works at Good Earth Restaurant, part of the Parasole Restaurant Holding’s lineup of winners. Even though we get a pretty sweet employee discount, an intern’s and a server’s salary is not satiating our desire for top notch food. Our only solution was to start cooking together this summer in our sweet bachelorette pad. Now that I am in Austria, I neglected to pack my recipe box, so I have been looking for inspiration from http://foodgawker.com/. This website is not for those on a diet. It shows mouthwatering pictures of food with links to the original recipes. This website is only topped by http://foodporndaily.com/. It is porn for foodies and the obese. Do not go on these websites if you are high or hungry. It’ll just make everything you have to eat look like horse oats in comparison. However, if you are looking for a little dinnertime inspiration, these two website are sure to fit the bill.
