Foodies

Do you tend to frequent the same restaurants? N and I always find ourselves falling back on old favorites. On Monday, we started a new tradition of trying out a new restaurant once a month. We kicked things off at Masa in Boston's South End and loved it. Our meals were devoured in no time at all and the sangria was the perfect way to end a hot summer day.

I also like to take advantage of Boston's Restaurant Week. This year, P.B.S., Frank and I have chosen to dine at The Fireplace in Brookline.

What's your favorite dinner spot in Boston? Hole-in-the-wall or upscale? Let me know, we'd love to add to our list.

Bakerella

I'm a huge fan of the blog, Bakerella. If you haven't read it yet, check it out.

Most of you know I'm a fanatic about cupcakes, but this blog shares a recipe for my newest obsession - cake balls. Just brilliant. Check out the red velvet cake balls.

Or better yet, cheesecake pops! Same concept, just add a stick.

I'm whipping up a batch of my own at the end of the month with a couple girl friends. I will share pictures if they look even half as scrumptious as the ones above. Wish me luck :)
