The History of Eating! →
What’s On The Menu? The NY Public Library is using online crowd sourcing to help them transcribe the thousands of historical menus they have in their collection. They would never be able to do it on their own so they are asking the public’s help. You go to menus.nypl.org and choose a menu to transcribe. It’s really easy and actually fun. You see what people were eating...

Beet Gnocchi-- made BETTER.
This. Is. Divine. Y’all might remember that I went wild over a picture of beet gnocchi (pause: beets are without a doubt the most color-giving food I’ve come across. Explore!).
