IN MY BELLY - condensed version

1. Kara's Cupcakes - brought these to a dinner party the other night and they were a big hit. The frosting was pure butter, sometimes with Madagascar bourbon vanilla or coconut cream cheese. Isn't animal fat great?

2. Eggplant meatballs at Bar Bambino -
I know MEATballs are typically made of meat, but these polpette di melanzane are special. You can share them with your vegetarian friends and have the rabbit pappardelle all to yourself!
Good to know: the neighborhood "parking attendants" won't pee on your car if you give them a dollar.

That's it for now. Say a prayer for Britney.
