Am I a cooking nerd? Kitchen geek? I got some new food coloring for my birthday… and I was excited about it!

I should also add that these are gel-based colors, and are much stronger than the standard food colors that you buy in the grocery store. The pink and purple colors are from just 2 drops of coloring each.
You can find these at Amazon:

One of the food sites that I like to visit is Foodgawker. People submit pictures of recipes they’ve made, and they are posted to browse, admire, and tempt you to make something good as well.

I was browsing some other cooking blogs, and found this recipe. The pictures looked so good! I bookmarked it with the intention of making it later in the fall. Well, that later was last week. They didn’t just look good, they tasted very good. Here are mine:
