I pinned the heck outta those recipes, here are some of my favorites to try soon!

Happy eating!
   

    

TGIFriday Video: Booze and John Green!

We 3 Happy Eaters have a particular fondness of author/vlogger John Green. He wrote The Fault in Our Stars, a New York Times Best Seller, and if you haven't read it you really really should. Really. I don't care if you don't like YA, you will love this book.

On the vlog scene, John Green hosts Mental Floss, a weekly show on YouTube "where knowledge junkies get their fix of trivia-tastic information." Seriously nerdy, seriously witty, seriously amazing, and his latest vlog is this week's TGIFriday Food/Fun video!

A quick, fascinating look at the history behind your favorite cocktails:

Happy Friday, eaters!
