I know its a bit of a cop out, but finding edible looking Blue Food is hard!

Blame my sickness...

Since I've been a bit under the weather I have been vegging out a lot lately. I don't know how I got sick, but its not fun! I just back to school yesterday afternoon and am not looking forward to office hours and such this week. Luckily I have no classes Mondays and Wednesdays. Today is a Monday schedule on campus!

This doesn't have a particular color inspiration, but it just sounds good... I love shrimp and garlic! And after watching a garlic themed episode of Food Network's The Best Thing I Ever Ate, this one looks really yummy!

For the sake of pleasing *supercoolR I'm dubbing this Cloud Dancer for the white of the shrimp and Ochre for the garlic...

Since there aren't a lot of blue foods, I am using this week to catch up on some of our former colors. I'm sick so what better way to pass the time than to beef up the blog?

Week 7 was Honeysuckle's time to shine. From January 13-19, 2011 this vivid shade of Pink benefitted from Valentine's day for food inspiration.

Here's a yummy drink that I hope you will love as much as I do.

P.S. Isn't that a sexy recipe card?

So Precious... So Creative... So Yummy!

Aren't these precious? I'm currently sick so anything sweet and sugary looks good right now!

And since we are color themed, I guess I'll add these to Week 2 (Cloud Dancer January 8-14, 2011)

Of Owls and Flowers

My favorite colors are blue and yellow. And this cake combines them as well as *supercoolR's famed color palette and LuckyArtemis' love of owls! Sure it's a few weeks too late, but it never hurts to go back and visit an old classic!





Even the insides are amazing looking!

Back to Basics

Here's a post for a former color, Blue Curacao (Week 3-January 16-22, 2011)

This was just too yummy to pass up... Gluten Free Chocolate cake that actually looks good!
