Speaking of goodies, here is a sneak peak at all the things my illustrations land on:

notecards
postcards
recipe cards
stickers
small prints
large prints

Happy thanksgiving!

Mozarella Cheese

You can't go wrong with mozzarella...especially on pizza.

String Cheese

My kids' favorite lunchtime snack.

Graphic Recipes

I'm taking a little break from cheese to show you my latest project.  Someone lovely asked me to draw her mom's special recipe as a holiday gift and this is the result.  I was so inspired that I decided to offer this same idea to others.  You can find out more here. Have a wonderful Monday!

White Cheddar Cheese

White cheddar is good on so many things, but simply on crackers is the best.

Creamy Havarti Cheese

Several of you suggested this cheese and I'm embarrassed to say I've never had it.  I have several cheeses I must add to my "try these" list now.

Cheese Curds

The person that requested these via Facebook challenged me to make them "cute".  Not sure if I accomplished that, but here is my attempt at some cute cheese curds.

Asiago Cheese

Low in fat and rich in protein, asiago cheese is a healthy snack. Geez, I'll take some of that.

American Cheese

This one reminds me of my brother, not only because he requested it, but because he loves sandwiches.  Somehow he manages to get everything in the fridge between two slices of bread.

Cheese Grater

I better pop some common cheese tools into the mix...like a grater.

Parmesan Cheese

The real deal is called parmigiano reggiano.  A friend on Facebook mentioned that the rinds are marked with the name of the maker, an official cheese stamp and the date of inspection. Whoa!

Pepper Jack Cheese

If you need a little spice in your life, this cheese is for you.

Fontina Cheese

I almost wrote that I've never tried this cheese, but then found out it is a popular fondue cheese used in the Alps.  I did experience fondue in the Alps about ten years ago, so I may have indeed tasted this lovely cheese. Hmmm...

Sharp Cheddar Cheese

This is the most popular cheese in our house.

By the way, if you have a great recipe that incorporates any of these cheeses, please link to it in the comments section.

The Irish Mother sent me this great recipe for cheddar cookies! Thanks Margaret!

A Cheese Gathering

Over the next couple of weeks I'll be highlighting your favorite types of cheese.I would love to hear about those you enjoy.  Please let me know in the comments below or on my Facebook page.  The final result will be a cheese print that includes the entire collection.

Let's start with a popular one...swiss cheese.

Wait, just one more thing...I've started creating graphic recipes.  They are something you might be interested in.  What are these?  Just take a peak here.

What? I won?!

Wow!  I just found out that The Lunch Box Project won a Foodbuzz award for "Best Single Topic Blog"!  I really can't believe it.  A BIG thanks to everyone that voted.  What a great day!

Good Food

Peas in a Pod

You know, I have nothing profound to say about peas...except that my kids really like them.
