Beetlejuice, beetlejuice, beetlejuice! – Purple cabbage and tofu soup
Make no mistake, this is not my soup. This belongs to the lovely Kath/KERF (and you can find the recipe there, too).
Some of the ingredients, I don’t even like, much less together in a soup. I’m curiously drawn in by the pictures, though, and the name makes my head spin with ideas that would make this even more kid-friendly.
The idea of beetle juice might gross some little ones out, but if you have any boys obsessed with worms and dirt and all things gory….or anyone who loves the movie, oh boy, have fun with this one! And well, if not, don’t call the dish beetlejuice, but definitely introduce them to this gorgeous purple soup. Call it “pretty princess soup” or something more dainty.
Facts About Food Friday – Heart cake without a special pan
Yay, Of Home and Muse had a picture example. Easy enough, right?
FAF #4
Who needs a heart-shaped cake pan if you have a square one and a circle one? Bake a cake in each, cut the circle one in half, turn the square so it’s facing like a diamond, and then add each circle half to the top sides. Yay, a heart!
I don’t bake cakes often, but I wish I would’ve thought of this one a long time ago. I’ve been lugging around a large awkward shaped heart cake pan for many years now, just because I thought maybe I’d need it at some point. It’s had a few uses over the years, like the time my mom made a Mickey Mouse cake using a heart as the base. But you have no idea how much of a pain in the butt it is to stack in a cabinet. It would never lay flat. Boo. :(
Edible food fashion – Tomato and cabbage couture
Bubblegum dress
Winter mushroom
Sung Yeon Ju is a Korean artist who has spent two years creating amazing dresses out of real foods in her series “Wearable Foods.” There are several more pictures on TrendLand. I wonder if Lady Gaga drew inspiration from these classy dresses when she chose to wear her meat dress?
Tomato…classy, no?
Lotus Root (So this one probably needs a slip worn underneath, heh)
Red Cabbage
Spring Onion (See? There are some more classic dress versions, too)
