Hi, I'm Rachel.

A few years ago I could barely boil water.

True story.

Determined to be a kick ass wife, I developed a love for football and learned to cook in my tiny Jersey City kitchen. I spend my days working in Manhattan, my nights and weekends chasing after a rambunctious toddler, and the hours in between cooking with my husband and feeding my TV habit...oh, and I blog about it all!

iGoogle Themes That Make You Go 'Mmmm'

Food is all around us - in the kitchen, on the street, and now right on the computer. I started using iGoogle about a year ago and it's become my official 'go-to' homepage ever since. Not only can you access email, Gchat, the weather, and The Onion headlines (and much more) all in one space, the theme of your iGoogle can be customized to virtually anything you want it to be. Since I've got food on the brain and the winter themes are just a sad reminder that Spring is too far away, I dug up a few food themes to share with all of you. From the mouth-watering, to the just-plain-creepy, there are lots to choose from, many of which change skins every day, but keep with their central theme.

 

There are cute ones...

 

Seriously mouth-watering ones...

 

And ones that make me gain 5 pounds simply by looking at them...

 

I mean, would you really want this on your home screen for an entire day? (It's Andrew Zimmern stuffing his piehole full of who knows what)

 

Though I lean more towards Travel Channel's Adam Richman, I'm not sure I need his mouth-stuffing mug on the top of my screen peering out at me...

 

Even Food Network, a major television channel staple in the Humiston household, has a theme that's gorgeous and yummy to boot...

 

The Gourmet Theme, which is new and thus kept popping up on my screen as an option to change over, could go either way. It's got the delish bugers as shown above...

 

Yet it changes daily, and it has some that make me go 'ick'. I mean, am I the only one feeling uncomfortable about having two random children on my home screen all day?
I also found one on this theme with Emeril Lagasse's grill on it. Though I've recently crossed over to liking him, I think these skins just need to go. Let's keep it to the food, shall we?

 

So what do you think? Do you use iGoogle, or another customizable reader? Are there any themes that tickle your fancy? I don't know about you, but I'm hungry...
