"PhotoOfTheDay" news and stories

Today's Photo of the Day is perfectly timed for National Soup Month (with all these soup posts, you'd think I have soup on the brain or something). Prepared and photographed by Maggiejumps (you can find her blog here), the recipe comes from Veganomicon. In the note under the image on Flickr, she comments that there was some worry in her household about a broccoli soup that wasn't creamy or enriched with some dairy but that they shouldn't have fretted, the soup was wonderful.

Today's featured photo comes to us from Tiny Morsels and is of a series of nicely plated Power Ball Snacks. The recipe originally comes from Heidi Swanson's Super Natural Cooking (Heidi is one of my very favorite food bloggers) and Tiny Morsels has adapted it slightly to ensure that it is gluten free.

Thanks to everyone who has joined the Slashfood Flickr group recently and has been adding pictures to our pool. I also loved seeing all the pictures of your favorite kitchen things. Keep them coming!

Miniature food items never fail to totally charm me. Pecan tassies are my favorite cookies, primarily because of their status as pint-sized pecan pies. In today's photo, Rebekah has made some adorable (and very tasty-looking) individual apple pies in ramekins. She claims that it was her first attempt at apple pie, but I would tend to doubt her assertion, since they came out looking so flaky-crusted and perfect.
