Summer time and Moscow Mules are made for each other! When Jessica from Moscow Muled (Moscow Mule Mugs) contacted me I thought the timing was perfect. I had been working on a Scandinavian version of the Moscow Mule, spring time was coming and she offered to send me a couple of mugs to try out. […]

Grilled Lobster with Tequila Lime Butter
At this point in our lives my husband has everything he needs and then some, truthfully he has more than he needs. This makes it difficult to buy him gifts. Just when I think I’ve thought of the perfect thing, like the time I decided to get him a miter saw, he ends up buying […]
Creamy Cilantro Lime Lentil Salad

It depended on what my dad was diving for at the […]
Uniq Citrus and Cucumber Salad
Have you ever heard the term “so ugly, it’s cute”? Typically this refers to animals and babies, not to food. And it shouldn’t. Actually I’ve never seen anything so ugly that it became cute. Cats with no hair…ugly! Smashed up face dogs with ubers of wrinkles…ugly. Your newborn baby…sorry moms…ugly (but not forever of course). […]
