Mushroom pancakes – Toadstool flapjack recipe?
Looks like a mushroom! I promise I won’t start singing again. At least not aloud. At least not here. :P
I was just going to share the picture of my little mushroom-shaped pancake droplet, but then it got me to thinking about what actual mushroom pancakes would be like. Turns out, I didn’t have to look far to find lots of yummy looking mushroom pancake/crepe recipes.
Try these stuff pancakes/krokiety, for example, from Coffee and Vanilla:
*drools* You can see the little pancake bubble pockets….yum.
Or these leek and mushroom crepes (gluten-free, to boot, if that’s up your alley):
Those two are both stuffed/filled varieties, but here’s some with the mushrooms right in it.
These rolls really caught my eye, too. I usually think of pancakes as being a sweet, breakfast dish with a liquid topping, whether syrup, smashed fresh fruit, or just loads of butter. These rolls are more savory, of course, but I still want to top them with maybe a mushroom soup gravy, of sorts, or make them more like enchiladas.
Maybe more like these, but they’re more crepe-like.
I saw several Korean Enoki Mushroom Pancake recipes, too, here, here, and here.
It’s amazing how a single pancake “flavor,” of sorts, can be translated so many different ways.
Bananas go with M&Ms, Pringles with red peppers – Food art
Cool, huh?
Most times when I find something like this, it’s from a source that’s divorced from the original source’s cousin’s brother-in-law’s second wife’s daughter, twice removed. 
And so then I often go on a wild google hunt, trying to find the original. These pictures are from an art project by Marco Ugolini and Pedro Motta.
I thought it was a neat concept when I saw the pictures, but I got a few laughs to go with it when I found the link on Toxel from when they were featured last year.

So grocery shopping is art now? I like to sort my Skittles by color before I eat them, next time I’m going to take a picture before I eat them and submit it for posting.
Art is in the eye of the beholder….or something like that. :P And well, I’d probably be just as likely to post pictures of separated Skittles, too, I think.
Also, I’m kinda disappointed by a fact I found on the art project site. 
None of the products have been bought after the shooting.
Booooo! I wouldn’t expect them to buy everything, of course, but really, didn’t buy any of it? I wonder if they even restocked any of it themselves or if they just left most of it. I can’t see any refrigerated items off hand, so that’s good at least, but there’s some produce there that was hopefully handled with care. 
When life gives you bananas, write secret messages!
Curved yellow fruits…er, I mean…bananas are such a cheap fruit to find year round, but frankly, they can get boring fast.
With kids going back to school and lunchboxes waiting to be packed 5 days a week for the next 9 months, this is a great way to make the banana a little more fun.
I found them on Laura’s site and she found them elsewhere, but I’ll link to her because she has a nice tutorial on how to do it with several other pictures.
It’s super easy, though…..just poke your message or pictures into the banana peel with a toothpick and by lunchtime, you’ll be able to see it show through. Plain banana in the morning….secret message by noon, woo.
And if you’re feeling extra artsy, don’t be afraid to bust out full sketches like this:
