The Food Timeline

Have you ever wondered when people began making beer? When did Americans begin drinking coffee? What is the history of the marshmallow peep or pop tarts?

I found an interesting website recently containing a timeline of food history created by reference librarian Lynne Olver. It's quite an interesting read! (The website contains recipes as well.)

Edible Book Festival at Johns Hopkins

Hello all~

Every year, I enter the Johns Hopkins University "Edible Book Festival" where people make a wide variety of cakes (and other desserts) based on books. Since I already made a post, years ago, of my first entry, A Clockwork Orange, I'm going to post images now from the past three years of my Edible Book festival entries! Enjoy my cake entry pics!
