Whether I can afford to bid or not, it's always fun to check out the items available at auctions. The Slow Food USA auction is particularly fun because it is almost all foodie items!
Slow Food has a long list of items to bid on. I want them all! I am now dreaming of making my own pizzas in the wood fired oven. I'm also imagining myself eating everything from the basket of apples to baked goods with pure vanilla. Don't even get me started with all the culinary tours and vacations.
Be sure to check out the complete list of auction items before the auction closes on June 26. For more information on Slow Food USA, visit their website.
What item would you (or did you) bid on?
This last weekend I went shopping for a turkey (I know it's early, but I needed to do a little experimentation). I had some trouble finding a bird that wasn't frozen solid (I wanted to use it the next day) but finally found a fresh one that clocked in at around 12 pounds at Whole Foods. It was a serviceable little bird, but was fairly conventional and mass produced. 
Cakes so amazing they'd be hard to cut into
