    Designing a special occasion cake, it turns out, is a very personal experience. My fiance and I did our wedding cake tasting with two sets of parents, and although we listened to their feedback, in the end, we went with what we both loved the most. For us, that's going to be a gold-sequined, overflowing champagne-inspired cake. For others, it might be a cake with blood, guts, and zombies. Hey, to each their own.

    This week, Reddit user mikemchenry posted a photo of the Walking Dead-inspired cake served at a wedding he attended last weekend. The zombies you see here are made out of Play-Doh. "Best part was, one broke and fell off the side of the cake, but the character's arm was still hanging from where it was supposed to be anchored. Everyone was like, well, it's a zombie, I guess it's okay that its body is falling apart..." Haa!

    If this kind of cake is your thing, you're in luck. There are a lot more cakes -- wedding and otherwise -- along the same lines ...

    Happy Super Bowl Sunday! Depending on the type of person you are, that means one of two things: A) You're looking forward to the game, or B) You're looking forward to the food. Me? I'm all about the food. Super Bowl Sunday is the perfect excuse to indulge my every gluttonous desire and not not feel bad about it. And what better to overindulge one's self than with cheese? And fries. Or loaded cheese fries.

    Come on, guys, you know you want these bad boys. And come Monday, it'll be a little inappropriate to eat these. Here's the easiest recipe in the world for yummy loaded cheese fries.

    When it comes to the Super Bowl I'm much more excited about what's going to be going into my stomach than what will be going on out on the field. So I've been prepping and planning a menu that will provide a little distraction from everything that happens between the commercials.

    Chicken wings have a starring role in my lineup, because really, what goes better with football than chicken wings? Of course not all chicken wings are created equal, but this recipe for Buffalo-style chicken wings from Featured Dish is nothing short of delish. You bake them so there's no frying to mess with, and they pack a nice powerful kick. Play ball!

    If you love buffalo wings, and you love potato skins, this recipe is for you. Closet Cooking's Buffalo Chicken Potato Skins recipe is brilliant. It's gooey and cheesy with just the right amount of spice. They're a crowd-pleaser for sure. Make these for your Super Bowl party this weekend and people will request them again and again.

    A couple tips since I made these this morning (best second breakfast ever, by the way). It seems like you're using a lot of hot sauce, but those starchy potatoes really absorb the spice. You know your heat tolerance, so definitely alter the recipe according to your taste. Just know that they're not as spicy as you'd think. And my other tip is: Good God these are delicious!

    Back in March, George Clooney and Rande Gerber, businessman and husband to supermodel Cindy Crawford, announced that they were starting a brand of tequila together called Casamigos. Inspired by their assuredly fancy celebrity homes in Mexico, Casamigos is a reasonably priced spirit, which the actor claims "speaks for itself." Now, nine months later, the first ad for the drink has hit the Internet airwaves and spoiler alert! If you like Clooney, Cindy Crawford, Stacy Keibler, and drunken, bisexual romps in the hay, then this commercial is for you.

    You would be hard pressed to find a more festive food than fondue. Warm, rich, and perfectly paired with so many different items for dipping, it's one divine dish ... especially when it's chocolate.

    Chocolate fondue is a perfect dessert for parties or intimate gatherings. Served with fruit, cake, cookies, marshmallows and more, it's sure to please everyone. There are a host of different varieties, but this mint chocolate version from the restaurant king of fondue, The Melting Pot, is by far my favorite. It's rich and decadent with just a hint of mint, and it's incredibly easy to make too. Win. Win. Note: It does contain some liqueur, so if you're serving it to children you may want to make two batches and leave that out of theirs.
