In Which YumSugar Gets a Spray Tan in the Buff

BellaSugar — Mon, 28 Jun 2010 08:00:36 PDT

Earlier this month, YumSugar had a big event coming up, the Food & Wine Classic in Aspen. She wanted a healthy glow for the days-long festivities but didn't want to expose her skin to UV rays. (Smart cookie.)

Enter the spray tan. Yum decided to try Brown Sugar Boutique in SF. While this faux-tanning service can be performed by a machine, our foodie wanted the preciseness that only a human can provide. And while Yum decided to go in her birthday suit, most places provide paper underwear or let you wear your own skivvies. Find out about her experience with spray tanning when you read more.

Off To Market: Butter Bell

partysugar — Fri, 02 Mar 2007 09:57:41 PST

YumSugar needs our help readers! Here's the deal, she recently splurged on some super expensive goat's milk butter and she wants to keep this special, smooth, excessively creamy butter at room temperature for maximum enjoyment. This butter is too nice to throw on a plate and place in the cabinet, so we need to find Yum a butter bell. A butter bell is a butter container that maintains the perfect temperature of the butter while protecting it from outside air. She began looking for one but all she could find were hideously country little butter bells with butter written in loopy letters. YumSugar is not much of a romantic and her kitchen is sleek and chic rather than country and kitsch, so keep that in mind when you search for a butter container. She has beautiful granite counter tops and a modern butter bell will work wonderfully. Save what you find in the Yum Market on TeamSugar with the keyword tag, Butter Bell. Both YumSugar and I are excited to see what you discover so good luck!
