I did it. I done did it. Have you ever made a decision, a commitment and wondered “what the hell have I got myself into”? As my time drew near to opening the café I was asking myself that very question. Oh why do I jump in with both feet? I mean this is work! It’s […]

Salted Caramel Fudge {in 5 minutes}
Follow my blog with Bloglovin It’s amazing how this time of year tempts even the non-sweet maker into a cookie and candy making machine. Actually it’s quite over-whelming at times which is why I love having a few super quick and easy recipes on hand. One of my go to recipes every year is my […]
Cranberry Pineapple Sauce
There are so many things that I love about Thanksgiving, after all it is a holiday centered on food. It’s a time when families and friends gather together and mostly enjoy the holiday. A holiday steeped in tradition. I’ve done my share of experimenting with different flavors and dishes. Sometimes the new flavors were stunners, […]
Lemon Pepper Asparagus Pasta Salad
One these days I’m going to count how many recipes that I’ve posted that have lemon as an ingredient? Perhaps I shouldn’t or I might find out exactly how freakishly obsessed I am with all things lemony. Sometimes is just better not to know. I’m finally posting my the recipe that I eluded to in […]
Maple Glazed Carrots–Secret Recipe Club Reveal
This is the longest hiatus between posts that I’ve ever taken. As a matter of fact the last time I posted, was during Secret Recipe Club Reveal last month. At my last posting I was hot and heavy into finals for Part 1 of my school. I then took a one week break and visited […]
Impossible Egg Muffins
Raise your hand if you grew up with a box of Bisquick in your pantry. We used it for biscuits, pancakes and the popular Impossible pie.
Meyer Lemon Eggs Benedict and Grilled Asparagus
When Easter is hopping around the corner the first food that comes to mind for me is always eggs. More than any other food, eggs represent Easter. Colorfully dyed eggs, plastic filled eggs, cheap shiny grass as a nest for them. Eggs are a birth, a beginning so is Easter and so is Spring.
Loaded Potato Skins
Yesterday I posted homemade gnocchi, the incredibly pillow like gnocchi that melts in your mouth and forces you to over eat because you can’t stop yourself but somehow you can’t seem to make your self feel guilty abut it because it’s so good gnocchi. There is also a bonus, a bi-product of making the gnocchi […]
Bottom’s Up Baked Lobster and Artichoke
If you’ve been following along you’ll remember that a couple of weeks ago, we bought ten lobster tails (since they were on sale at a price we just couldn’t resist). I made Lobster Verrines as our starter and Lobster Risotto as our side (which ended up being the star of the entire meal) and for […]
Greek Inspired Salmon Salad in Lettuce Wraps
Confession time. My husband and I started Weight Watcher’s 1 1/2 weeks ago. I haven’t really talked about our change because so many people are on their New Year’s Resolution Band Wagon to get healthy and fit. The decision to do WW isn’t about any New Year’s resolution, it merely was about the fact that […]
