Test Kitchen Top 3: March Madness

It's March Madness time! Which means numerous feasts to prepare and photograph, many dishes to wash, babies to play with, and food to eat. This week's test kitchen was a busy one, but as we all know, that means more food to enjoy and more recipes to share with all of you in the coming weeks. And more Instagramming.

Wait. That's what March Madness means, right?

1. We're mad for babies. Guess who's walking? Clara visited the test kitchen to show off her moves, and we were all pretty impressed. She also ate food, looked adorable, and let us take pictures of her. She should really start charging us for these things.

2. We're mad for baguettes. Carrying a warm, fresh, crackly baguette to work -- to be shared with coworkers, torn off in hunks, and smeared with avocado or just eaten plain -- is oddly exciting. Refraining from breaking into it on your commute, though, is a serious act of self-control. (PS -- this one's from Bakeri in Williamsburg. It's good.)

3. We're mad for doo-dads. We discovered these in Amanda's apartment. Some of us had no idea what they were; do you? Share your guesses in the comments!
