"Alanna Kaufman" news and stories

Every once in a while, we like to get a little up and close personal with our bloggers. We've already met Bob Sassone, Ellen Slattery, Shayna Glick, and Sarah J. Gim. Now let's meet the latest addition to our team, Alanna Kaufman. -- Marisa McClellan

Do you have a personal blog?
I have a recipe blog, Two Fat Als, with my boyfriend. I write, he photographs, and we both cook.

What is your day job, or rather, what do you do when you're not food blogging?
I am currently a senior at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. I study English and Political Science, and I hope to attend law school in the fall.

How long have you been blogging with Slashfood and what is your favorite post?
Four days and counting! I love the post by Shayna about the world's largest wedding cake -- that thing is beautiful! It's my secret dream to be professional cake decorator, and I sometimes sit in Barnes & Noble, flipping through entire books on wedding cakes. I've never seen one that awesome before.

Do you have any non-food-related, non-blogging hobbies?
I'm taking a drawing class, and I love anything crafty. Also shopping, reading, guitar hero, Project Runway and Top Chef, wandering around Philadelphia and playing with friends.
