Trending!

My sister  made a blog entry about things that are trending with her. She asked me to do the same. At first I thought "Well, I  have a food blog so things that are trending with me won't really apply to it." but I was wrong! Here are five things that are trending with me and have everything to do with food.

PVR(Personal Video Recorder...I think?): I am a huge fan of TV and movies. I have Netflix and PVR everything! I really like reality TV and comedies but I have been PVR-ing my favorite cooking shows and shows about food. One of the two shows I PVR is Chucks Day Off. It is hosted by Chuck Hughes who tapes the show in one of his two restaurants. The idea of the show is that he has his day off(obviously)and cooks for people he knows. I've made a few things from his show but my proudest has to be his Legendary Turducken. The other show I've PVR'ed is a show my friend Lyndon actually started called Chefs Run Wild. It stars three guys from Winnipeg who travel around Asia learning local cuisine. It's interesting, informative and fun to say the least.

Bacon grease: After making a package of bacon for breakfast SAVE YOUR BACON GREASE! I have been using it instead of butter when making soups or even putting it on my toast when making an egg in a basket.

Aprons: I know this isn't really a trend but it is to me. At work I've always worn an apron but for some reason I never used to wear one at home when cooking which proved to be a huge mistake. I have a bad habit of wiping my hands on my apron so I started wiping my hands on my clothes at home! I found these hostess aprons on elizabeth W's website. They're adorable! My birthday is July 16th by the way...

Blogs and tumblr: I LOVE looking at pictures which is why tumblr is so amazing to me. I read(watch?) Jo Fuertes-Knight's who also has a great blog on Vice called Girl Eats Food where she makes food like baked bean gnocchi.
My friend Sabrina also has a great tumblr where she post pictures shes taken. A lot of the pictures of from all over Winnipeg and also of the food she makes.

What are some things trending with you? Let me know!
