When I was younger I used to hate eating chicken thighs. There was something about the dark meat and the bones that I didn't like. However, I've grown to love chicken thighs. They're more flavorful than breasts and far more affordable. Do you cook with chicken thighs? How do you feel about them?

Last weekend I was lucky enough to attend one of my favorite events of the year: the Zinfandel Advocate and Producers (or ZAP) annual festival. On Thursday night I participated in a walk-around food and wine tasting. A bunch of wineries pair up with local restaurants and caterers who create a small dish to pair with the wine. Attending this sort of event is a great way to learn about pairing food and wine because you can really taste which pairings work well and which don't work so well. Saturday was the grand walk-around tasting with hundreds of wineries pouring Zin barrel samples, new releases, and premium wine. I snapped a bunch of pictures that better illustrate my experience.
January was for detoxing and clean eating, but the beginning of February's been all about getting our game face on. Right now, we're united in one goal: to score big at this weekend's Super Bowl bash. We pulled out all the stops, from buffalo wings and pizza dip to cheddar stout fondue and spicy sausage nachos. Did you stick around to see what we were up to? Take our quiz to find out.
Still on the hunt for a finger food that'll complete your Super Bowl Sunday? Consider serving the sliders and wings with a cheesy, toasty Southern snack that'll please just about anyone. Seriously, it's melted pimento cheese, crunchy baguette, and crispy bits of bacon — how can you go wrong?
I love the worry-free factor of these bites. The pimento cheese can be made several days ahead, and the recipe can be halved and still turns out great. I don't have a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, so I hand-mixed the pimento cheese. Win over any Super Bowl fan when you read more.
The Twilight craze is still going strong even into Valentine's Day! That is right, there are now sweetheart candies that have been themed with Twilight phrases like Bite Me, I Trust You, Dazzle, and my absolute favorite, I Heart EC. The days of Be Mine are over! Sweetheart candies took it one more step and the blue hearts actually glitter just like Edward. Enjoy!
