Food Bucket List

I love food porn.  I am the kind of person that gets down right giddy when my Food Network magazine arrives and I eagerly flip through the pages for mouth watering recipe ideas.  However, I have piles and piles of these magazines all with dog-eared pages and every color sticky note marking recipes I want to try and I have tried notta one!  So last year I had a food bucket list item that I wanted to conquer.  The ever-so-easy (so everyone told me) salsa.  I love me some Pace, but who doesn't love them some home-made salsa?!  So last year that was my goal.  Own a salsa recipe.  Own one I did!  I now make salsa by the bucket loads and while I tweak my recipe each time I can call myself a salsa maker with pride!  With the boom of Pinterest (I love you Pinterest) I pin recipes all the live long day!  Some are easy, some not so easy, some involve expensive ingredients like lobster and truffle oil, and others involve super cheap stuff like a jar of pickles and some flour and eggs.  I have put it upon myself to not only ogle at the food porn I find in my magazines and on Pinterest (once again I love you Pinterest) but to actually make these things!  So once a week I will make an item I have pinned on my food board, or see in a magazine or online.  Give it a whirl, and let you know how it turns out.  Tonight its fried pickles!!  They should be delicious!  I will let you know!
