buy this book. even if you don’t have a kid.

i’m obsessed with the donut chef. yes, it’s a book for kids. but it’s brilliant. it’s about taking something as simple as a delicious glazed donut and completely ruining it by adding more and more and more. a perfect distillation of how easy it is to get wrapped up in the desire to keep up with the jones’ - or in this case - the donut shop next door.

read it, you’ll understand.

cookbooks of the year…according to various sources

all this year-end hubbub is making me miss christmas already. i’m currently working on a post filling you in on our christmas dinner - complete with a recipe for my favorite item on the menu. but first - because time is of the essence - and because we only have a few more hours left of 2010, here are two lists of the year’s best cookbooks.

see anything here you own & agree that it’s the best of 2010? see anything you completely disagree with? i’d love to know your thoughts…

first up, the list from the ny times. read all about it here.

and next, the list from the daily beast. read all about it here.

dinner time. lunch time. snack time.
i love food all the time. thankfully, i have a job that involves food.
which is fun. and amazing.

i’m a baker, and i own a bakery. i love to eat, and i love to cook - most importantly i love to share food with others.

and that’s what sprinklefingers is for - to share my food thoughts and dreams and wishes with you.

right now i’m wishing dinner was ready.
