Happy April Fools Day 2008 From The Kitchn!

So, did you like our small attempts to fool you? Frankly, we don't think we fooled anyone, but we had a really good time coming up with kitchen and cooking ideas we'd (mostly) like to see in real life. Thomas Keller catering opening day? Yes please. Butter that doesn't burn? A date over proper food with Jamie Oliver? Oh yes.

I had to laugh about the spaghetti tree - waaaaay back in the day, my grandmother completely fell for the news reports on the spaghetti harvest, and for years my grandfather just loved telling that story to the family.

I went for most of these hook, line, and sinker. I really tried to imagine who would want that hideous Rachael Ray backsplash. And I clicked hopefully on the Jamie Oliver link, because, hey, who wouldn't want to win a trip to London. See, I believe you bloggers. Now I'm totally disillusioned and will slither off and curl up in a ball and mope.
