Kitchen Sink Links {5}

This Saturday food blogger across the country will be joining forces (selling sweets) to raise money for Share Our Strength. I've been making goodies for the Atlanta event, which will be at Cook's Warehouse Ansley Mall location from 9 am to 1 pm. Check here to see if there's a sale in your city.

If you can't make the sale, consider making a donation online here.

I also decided to give up sugar for a week (great timing, right?).  I have a pretty serious sweet tooth, which seems to have taken a turn for the worst. My body (and my palate) need a little break from sweetness to recover and reset.

But, of course, I can (and do) dream about sweet things all day long, right? So here are a few things I'm lusting for:

Joy's Coffee Coffee Cake Muffins . I've been craving streusel lately (totally normal huh?) and the combo of vanilla and espresso is righteous. Bookmarking these guys for Mother's Day brunch.

I'm so in love with Ashley's words on the seasons of life. We are in a planting and weeding season right now and I'm trying to be present in that, which is always a challenge for me. Her Rhubarb Mojito will probably help though.

Megan makes a mean goat's milk caramel, I mean Cajeta.

I just subscribed to Remedy Quarterly and the back issues arrived this week. I'm so excited to dig in!

Love this info-graphic from Grist (via Good) and this twitter, PicturelessPins!

Wishing you a very sweet weekend!

remains of the snack. 

Our fridge went out this week. Yes, it was pretty terrible to have to throw out a bunch of groceries, but, hey, now both the fridge and freezer are clean!

Here are a few things I'm loving around the web this week:

The combination of pollen and warmer weather we are experiencing in Atlanta right now can only be combated with a lovely drink like this Sweet N' Spicy from Eat, Make, Read

John and Sherry finished up their kitchen remodel over at Young House Love. Opening up that wall did wonders for the space, but I'm loving the penny tile and industrial style stools the most.

It was reassuring to read Virginia's post on The State of Cookbook Publishing, ya know, because I like having a job and all.

Favorite new to me food blog of the week: Food Plus Words. These Whiskey Oatmeal Pies are totally on my "to-bake" list now.

On my "to-make-then-consume-in-mass-quantities list": Chihuahua Mac and Cheese from Scarletta Bakes. This is my favorite line from the post and I think it pretty much sums up my week:

"I personally have never heard of a Mac & Cheese Deficiency, but assuming it exists, I’ve been suffering something fierce."

How about you, how was your week?  What's cooking this weekend? 


Happy Friday!
