Sweet Tooth - People’s Pops
On a hot summer day a nice cold sweet treat is necessary to cool down and that’s where People’s Pops comes in. I’ve seen them around the East Village with their small pop up but now they are all over the city. I happen to visit the one by Madison Square Park and decided to check it out for myself.
I opted for the raspberry pop and all I can say is that you can definitely tell it was crushed fruit since there were actual seeds. It was sweet and tart and perfect for the hot summer day.

Dress from Urban Outfitters that I bought last year but they do have a fun selection out for this season.
Foodie Quickie - Tech Munch 2012
I had the pleasure of attending my first Tech Munch conference this year and had a blast! I got to taste some delicious treats, learn a few things here and there from the panels and attend some cooking demonstrations with Always Order Dessert and Nomnivorous. I never win anything but this time I won 20 lbs of potatoes from Idaho Potato so I’m sure you’ll see some cookbook confessions featuring the potatoes. So whoever close to me is on a carb free diet is going to have to put it on hold.

Sweet Tooth - Puddin’ Shop
Heard about this Puddin’ shop in the East Village and thought I would take a pit stop with Denise of dee Cuisine to check out the hype.
They offer a wide array of flavors and when I asked what was recommended they said butterscotch or rice pudding. Denise opted for the rice pudding and I for the banana in the mini sizes.
The banana pudding was a bit too sweet but you can taste it’s homemade with real bananas and not with artificial flavoring. Since it’s pudding it was so rich and creamy, personally I probably should’ve added toppings for some added texture. However it was a nice treat for the middle of the day.
Puddin is located at 102 St. Marks Place between 1st and Avenue A.
