"sassy radish" news and stories

For those of you not in the know, an Irish Carbomb is a drink that combines Guinness, Irish cream (typically Bailey's) and Irish whiskey (often Jameson). Food blogger Sassy Radish has transformed that bar special into a boozy, chocolate-y cupcake and has made them look deliciously cute with a frenzy of frosting flowers. She doesn't have a blog post up yet to match up with these 'cakes, but I'm certain that when she does, the corresponding recipe will be a winner.

Thanks Sassy Radish!

Okay Sassy Radish, I have a bone to pick with you. Last I checked, you said you were cooking and eating more lightly for the holidays. You dished up a gorgeous looking stir-fry and I felt virtuous just looking at it. But now, you toss this cake, this amazing chocolate cake, with peanut butter cream cheese icing and chocolate ganache, into the Slashfood Flickr pool, leading us right back onto the path of culinary temptation. How's a food blogger supposed to cope?

Don't you think we've had enough sweets treats for one week? After all, it is January, the time of the year when we're all supposed to be resetting our diets by eating lighter healthier foods (and giving our livers a break from all the holiday booze). Thankfully, Sassy Radish has taken the lighter eating mantra to heart and has created this bright, gingery Tofu, Spinach and Okra Stirfry. Served over brown rice, it looks like it made a tasty and buoyantly light meal.

Thanks, Sassy Radish!

I tend to think of potato salad as a dish that should only be eaten during the summer. However, upon seeing this picture (and developing a craving -- I am so suggestible) I started to question that particular notion. Now I'm imagining all sorts of lovely winter dishes accompanied by a dish of creamy potato salad.

Thanks Sassy Radish, for adding this one to the pool. And might I say, you take a mighty fine food picture!
