If you're looking for some delicious treasures that don't require any time in the kitchen, look no further. This month we've been sampling some great baked goods that more than fit the bill. We've also found a new fav yogurt and stumbled upon some March Malbec Madness along the way…
Yesterday's Memories Delivered Today 
A friend stopped by for tea the same day I received a shipment from Sweet Sally's. As she swooned over Rainy Day Fudge Brownies, I helped myself to another Right Size Chocolate Rugelach (inspired by the minis made by Sally's Grandma Gracie). By the time I bit into a Romantic Raspberry Square, I was ready to book a flight to the east coast. No need for that, however, as Sally lovingly ships her deliciously wholesome, freshly baked goodies anywhere in the continental U.S. Treat yourself. www.sweetsallys.com - picked by Peggy Fallon Pound Cake Love 
Janie's Cakes from Tyler, Texas is THE place for pound cake lovers. I'm further convinced the secret ingredient in these baked-from-scratch pound cakes is love. I happily taste-tested "The Italian Jane", a vanilla pound cake filled with Italian Buttercream and topped with pecans. Utterly delicious and unique, especially since the moist-on-the-inside cake has an exterior texture reminiscent of a madeleine. Our tasters unanimously agreed, "That cake is gooood!" Janie's offers an inspired assortment of flavor profiles, with most available in either a 12-15 person or 2-4 person serving size. I for one can't wait to try out the "La Dolce Vita Jane," a mixture of chocolate and vanilla created for Whole Foods, but fortunately also offered online by Janie's. To try them out for yourself, visit Janie's Cakes at www.janiescakes.com - picked by Foodie Pam More than Cheese  Did you know that Tillamook makes yogurt? I've always known them for their cheeses, but as a large dairy cooperative they also make other products. Back to the yogurt: it's good, very good, and with interesting fruit flavors to choose from, too. (Check out all the flavors on their website.) Unfortunately you'll need to live in the western part of the US in order to find their yogurt in stores. - picked by Foodie Husband
Malbec Madness 
I've enjoyed Malbec for years, and Argentinian Malbecs definitely rank up there with ones from other parts of the world. "Malbec Madness" is a collection of Argentinian wines from Trapiche, Michel Tornio, Failing Star and Astica, combined with a promotional event offering a chance to win a trip for two to Argentina. I enjoyed the Trapiche Icons Malbec Vina Adolfo Ahumada (2007) the most. This Malbec was rich and earthy, a little on the heavier side, which paired perfectly with a big meaty meal. - picked by Foodie Pam Disclosure: Items discussed in this post may have been provided to Project Foodie by vendors, publicists, and/or manufacturers.
