Thursday Tidbit: St. Francis

Thursdays seem to more often than not concern food, so it is not surprise that this week I am highlighting St. Francis in Phoenix. And my favorite thing on their winter menu is by far the pumpkin soup. Literally, heaven on Earth, life-changing, I-dream-about-it delicious soup. And tonight they just so happened to have it! What a relief, my day was instantly better the first spoonful of silky soup paired with pomegranate seeds and croutons. Need I say more?

Perfect popcorn!

Dale & Thomas Chocolate Covered Popsters. Amazing!

A nice touch to the morning

I have seen the cocoa heart in espressos or shamrocks in Guinness but the intensity of these stencils used for coffee and desserts make me smile. I don't even drink coffee and if someone handed me one of these I would go for it! Made by Megan Herbert from Iceland, you can buy them right here. I especially love the thumbprint detail on the handle.

Culinary Dropout

If you are ever in Scottsdale, AZ you must go to the latest FOX Restaurant Concepts place...Culinary Dropout. Everything was delicious. Great drinks, amazing fried chicken and a slice of heaven in the form of soft pretzels with provolone fondue. I'm pretty sure I will be returning just to eat five orders of those.

My Philosophy

I think this quote found on Oh Joy Eats pretty much sums me up in a nutshell. Happy Monday!
