My Name is Julie and I have a Problem

Please help me I am addicted. To what you ask? Well, I just call it Food Porn.


What- you are not familiar with the term. Well let me introduce you. Some of my favorite food porn sites are http://smittenkitchen.com/, http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/, and http://foodgawker.com/. Be warned these sites are gateway drugs and can lead to more and more food porn.




I waste hour after hour looking at yummy things I'd love to cook. Recipes filled with butter and chocolate and fat. There are always beautiful pictures that speak to me - yes they say - try this recipe it will fulfill you. But do they fulfill? No, they leave me craving, empty, and with my recipe binder cluttered with printouts of recipes I don't have the time or occasion to make.


My addiction, is unfortunately, geared more toward desserts, which isn't very helpful. If only I could be drawn to healthy dinner recipes.


Don't these look delicious. I have a burning desire to try them and I'm not even that big of a cupcake fan. http://cupcakestakethecake.blogspot.com/2009/04/cherry-coke-float-cupcakes-for-iron.html


This recipe was so interesting I had to try it : http://smittenkitchen.com/page/2/ And let me tell you -it was addictive - I even made it twice.
Please help isn't there some kind of net nanny that will block food sites from my Internet?
