So I have the best new recipe for you! I was in Puerto Vallerta a few weeks ago and we went to Daiquiri Dick’s for dinner. It is located on Los Muertos beach and is a beautiful location. Both my aunt and I had the Grilled Lemon and Garlic Chicken. It was so delicious. The…
Summer means BBQ’s with friends and family. I am getting ready to host a BBQ for my friend Deanna and her husband, who is visiting from Texas. We share a love of cooking and great restaurants. I am searching through my recipes to put together the perfect meal and came across an old favorite. I…
Happy Fourth of July! Not only am I celebrating the 4th but also the beginning of a nice long weekend. I know, your thinking you just had a vacation! What can I say… So here is an easy way to dress up your watermelon. The syrup is a mix of fresh lime juice, honey and…
At my local farmers market almost every booth has white peaches. I love the flavor of them and try to incorporate them into many dishes over the summer. There is nothing like going to the market, supporting local growers and coming home to create new dishes. Last year I discovered a great recipe by Bobby…
Today I decided to make a pizza using some of the veggies I had left over from the week. At Pizzeria Mozza, my favorite restaurant in LA, they make this goat cheese pizza with caramelized shallots, leeks, garlic and bacon. I decided to make my own version. Nothing can compare to Nancy Silverton’s dough so…
It is officially summer and I love the foods of summer. Yesterday I went to my farmers market and stocked up on some great fruit and veggies for the week. I just came back from a trip to Mexico which was lovely and relaxing. I will have to tell you more about the food and…
Another Tuesdays with Dorie and this week Di from Di’s Kitchen selected French Chocolate Brownies. Chocolate…how can you wrong. My camera is not working so I don’t have a picture. I am hoping to post one tomorrow but in the meantime check out some of the other TWD sites. I decided to skip the raisins…
You might notice for those with Internet Explorer that the big black ugly bar is gone. Thanks Leslie for helping me out! So today’s post is a Tuesdays With Dorie from two weeks back, when the big black bar appeared. The challenge was Madeleines and this time I was determined to get this right. A…
I was excited to see Diane from Diane Dishes select Florida Pie for this weeks Tuesdays with Dorie. I love key lime pie and limes so I knew this would be good. It was pretty easy but my crust didn’t seem to come together. I think I needed more butter to bind it together and…
I know, I have been away for awhile. Work sort of sidelined my blogging and cooking time. But I have a new little favorite to share with you. After working all day I want to come home and make something quick. I saw Giada cooking a Fusilli Caprese Pasta and it gave me the inspiration…
Another Tuesday and another Dorie recipe. This week Caitlin of Engineer Baker chose Fluted Polenta and Ricotta Cake. The great thing about these challenges is that I am trying new recipes. In the original recipe it calls for figs. Well, if you know how picky of an eater I am, you know those went out…
For this months Daring Bakers Challenge Elle and Deborah selected Cheesecake Pops. They are little cheesecake morsels on a stick, dipped in chocolate and decorated how you wish. They are very rich and they would have to be served straight out of the freezer. I fear they would fall off the stick on a warm…
