Hersey is tweaking the formula for their M&M-like candies, making it officially NOT milk chocolate as stated by the Food and Drug Administration.

"The new version is called Chocolate Candy which is code for chocolate-flavored confection, or candy that contains chocolate but can’t be called chocolate because it has other stuff in it that’s not permitted by the FDA definitions (like more oil than actual chocolate)."

Summer is almost coming to an end, and we surely need to drink every last drop of it. I was scouring the web in search of a good lemonade recipe at Simply Recipes. Here it is in quick form:

• 1 cup of sugar (1 cup makes it very sweet. Reduce amount to taste)
  
• 1 cup of water
• 1 cup of lemon juice

I also found this quick tip that actually makes the entire recipe easier to mix...

"The secret to perfect lemonade is to start by making sugar syrup, also known as "simple syrup". Dissolving the sugar in hot water effectively disperses the sugar in the lemonade, instead of having the sugar sink to the bottom."

If you're a lemonade fan, you also might want to try raspberry lemonade, apple lemonade, or cherry lemonade. Drink up!

My friend human_skull is an inspiring Food Network star. When she's not busy living out the life of Barbie, she's rockin' the kitchen like a pro. She pointed me out to a site that has recipes and pictures that make me want to eat...a lot. The blog she showed me is called "Ooh, You Tasty Little Things..." which is about using butter for to create good food that is so evil! Check out this photo for their newest recipe, for raspberry cheesecake chocolate cupcakes:
