A huge thank you to Verizon for providing me with a DNA for review purposes and thus being the catalyst for the best stuffed burger recipe. Does anyone else get tired of making the same old things all the time? Today I was in my kitchen, pacing from the fridge, to the pantry, to the lazy susan and back again. No matter how many times I shifted through our food nothing inspired me. Finally I threw my hands in the air and admitted defeat. Earlier this month I had subscribed to a recipe … [Read more...]
On a recent press trip to Bermuda, I had the pleasure of meeting and befriending an amazing woman - Carolyn Scott-Hamilton. A talented chef, nutritionist and travel blogger, Carolyn showed me that being healthy and eating vegan while traveling wasn't what she refers to as "social suicide". She was easily one of the nicest, most fun and non-judgmental people I have ever met. While I am and always will be a meat-lover, Carolyn's outlook and lifestyle definitely intrigued me. I was able to take a … [Read more...]
I love the holidays. My favorite time of year are the months between October and January. Between Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year and our anniversary I'm never feel more festive. I love the decorations, traditions, the music and of course the parties. My husband? He could care less! He doesn't openly protest. He is there to hang the lights, adjust the wreath, set up and take down things just out of my reach but his motivation is pleasing his wife and not the festivities. So I … [Read more...]
I'm a self proclaimed Wine connoisseur. A wonderful way to spend an evening is grilling out on the deck of our little beach house with friends. Of course, what kind of host would I be if I didn't supply wine with our evening meal? I try to make it my mission to pair the perfect wine with our meal. Red or White? Well it depends on the recipe. For instance I was recently sent a Daniel Gehrs 2011 Chenin Blanc and a 2009 Merlot as part of a membership to www.cawineclub.com. CA Wine Club's goal … [Read more...]
Children, Parents and Grandparents cooking together, sharing old family recipes and secret ingredients passed generation to generation is becoming a lost art in far too many households. These days, it's hard for busy parents to find the time to put together a balanced meal let alone the time to teach their kids basic cooking techniques. I can't deny that getting kids in the kitchen requires more time, more than a little patience and some extra clean up. I do know that it's well worth the … [Read more...]
The holidays have always been my favorite time of year, even as a kid. It's more than presents (although I do love to give gifts) the holidays are simply magical. Its a time of year when families come together no matter how busy or how far apart. I love walking into crowded stores and see people searching for the perfect gifts, Christmas music drifting through open shop doors. In our family the Christmas traditions are numerous. The women in my family are "Deer Widows" in November and early … [Read more...]
