Kahlua!
I know, I know, I haven’t been posting much lately, ’cause, like most of you, the holiday season to-do list has taken over. We haven’t been cooking all that much either, and when we do it’s a vat of soup or a double batch of whatever so that we can eat leftovers while trying to [...]
Infuse a little summertime into your lemonade with black raspberry and lavender
There is nothing like summer in Michigan. As a Michigan transplant, from a place where you avoid going outside and run your air-conditioner for the entire summer, I can say I choose this. I love it, and I start day-dreaming about it in January. I may get a bit annoyed by the mosquitos, but I won’t [...]
Awesome, Smack Your Mama, Sangria Recipe
I was perusing Facebook status updates yesterday and a beautiful image of fruit caught my eye. It was a photo collage of the making of Sangria by a friend of mine, Cherie Stangis.

iFood
I was clearing out and backing up my iPhone yesterday and realized I had quite a few food related images on my phone. An iPhone food image is far from the traditional food image but I like the various effects you get from all the different phone apps. Clearly my favorite is Hipstamatic but sometimes [...]
Smoothies
I am a summer person and can get a little down in winter but, this year, I have been unusually accepting of winter. I attribute my acceptance to the fact that I spent a lot of time out hiking in it. However, last week we had a warm up and it melted all the snow, [...]
