I have been going a bit crazy over bagels recently after a good experience that I had. A great bagel shop opened up in our town recently called the Kinetic Bagel Institute. Last week we stopped by and got a dozen bagels of different varieties. Every single bagel was fresh and delicious, and the prices were reasonable too.

Once in awhile my husband and I get a craving for a big, juicy, delicious burger. He is of the sort that would be happy to go out and by one from a restaurant.

Ah…cinnamon and sugar. Such a delightful combination. I didn’t grow up with it, but after years spent in the United States I now love it. A sprinkle of cinnamon sugar on many types of food can make them just delicious. One of my favorite things is to get an elephant ear or funnel cake made with cinnamon sugar at a local event like the county fair. When that’s not possible I make myself a coffee cake.
