Mmmm, food

A few months back on my old blog, Traffic Jams and Tracing Paper, I posted all these recipes that I wanted to try to make. Then my life became extremely busy and I just now finally have my own kitchen again, so I wanted to repost the tentative recipes and then actually make them. In fact, I just finished making one of them and it's delicious! Here is the original post from September 2009:

 Going along with my plan to transfer some of my favorite blogs posts to here so I can access them easily (and share the pretties with you!) I decided to organize all the recipe links that I have been meaning to try because they look delicious. This was going to be 1 post, until I realized that it would be extremely long, so I'm breaking it up into 2. First up, appetizers and drinks. (Note: I haven't actually tried any of these, but perhaps I should do a comparison post when I get around to it?)

Pesto

Mango Salsa

Cubed Hacked Caprese

Simple Syrup (not a drink, but a mixer)

Sassy Water

Melon Agua Fresca

Citrus Thyme Water

That's part 1, stay tuned for deserts!
