Grapefruit Margarita
Another day, another margarita. Don’t judge me, OK? It’s Cinco de Mayo! I’m pretty sure margaritas are mandatory on Cinco de Mayo. Yup. Totally. And that’s fine by me, ‘cuz these grape fruit margs are fabulous — mild, sweet, tangy, and refreshing. Even Dan, who doesn’t like grapefruit at all and looked deeply skeptical when I…read more »
Classic Lime Margaritas
Someone pointed out the other day that I’ve been going nuts with the beverage posts lately. It’s true. The only action my kitchen has seen in the last few days is fruit-squeezing, ice-making, and cocktail-stirring. Before you ask, no…I have not suddenly developed a drinking problem. It’s just that for food-blogging purposes it’s a lot…read more »

Strawberry, Banana & Nutella Bread Pudding
You guys know how much I love Nutella, right? Some people have drinking problems, some people do drugs…I eat Nutella from the jar with a spoon. It’s uncontrollable. Nutella is just soooo good — thick, creamy, nutty, and chocolate-y…It’s like crack for choco-holics. For obvious reasons (i.e., I don’t want to be 500lbs and constantly covered in…read more »
Apple Goat Cheese Tarts
So, The Hunger Games movie premiered this week. Most. Exciting. News. Ever. I only discovered the books a few months ago but like most people I was hooked right away. I tore through the series in about a week, and I’ve re-read all the books like 4 or 5 times in the last month alone….read more »
Chewy Chocolate Cherry Oatmeal Cookies
OK, raise your hand if you liked oatmeal cookies when you were a kid. Anyone? No? You in the back, put your hand down, I don’t believe you. Nobody liked oatmeal cookies when they were kids.

Nutty Nutella Banana Bread
So I’ve been told that today is National Banana Bread Day. This is the first time I’ve heard of this “holiday”, but I’m more than happy to celebrate. I love banana bread!
