Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
Yesterday might have been Easter with a full springtime brunch that included that brunchiferous staple, Eggs Benedict, but did you know that National Eggs Benedict Day is actually in a week - April 16?
Yep, I didn't know that either, and I also didn't know that there are about a bazillion myths surrounding the origin of an English muffin topped with Canadian bacon, a poached egg, and Hollandaise sauce. Heck, I might have even thought that Eggs Benedict was the bourgie incarnation of an Egg McMuffin! Take a peek at the Sunday New York Times for the full rundown on the (proposed) history of Eggs Benedict.

It is not uncommon for people to hotlink images, but hosting someone else's images or cropping/recompositing them should be a big no-no unless explicit permissions are obtained. At the very least, Theo Coulombe should be given props for the image with a link to where the image was originally published. If not, I'd pull that image tout de suite.
