Wow, it has been quite some time since I have posted a recipe! My computer has been on the fritz and was making it very difficult to post. So I said screw it and decided to take the leap back in no matter how much trouble it would give me. It feels good to finally be posting again!

So without further adieu here are my favorite television shows about food.

The whimsy of Water for Elephants inspired this recipe for cotton candy popcorn. The circus is one of the biggest spectacles and mysteries that one can’t help but enjoy. I find myself always walking around hypnotized by all the delicious goodies waiting to indulge my sweet tooth. This recipe takes the best of the savory snacks and the best of the sweet to combine and make an amazing treat even the circus would be jealous of.
