Who’s been watching WandaVision on Disney+? If you haven’t, stop reading now because there are some serious spoilers ahead. I know that seems weird for a cocktail post, but since this cocktail was inspired by one of the characters on the show, it’s absolutely necessary. Okay, now that all the legalese are out of the… Continue reading The Agatha Harkness

Boothby Cocktail
The Golden Globes are Sunday! The beginning of what would normally be a long awards season. Unfortunately now the Oscars, Grammys and all other awards have been moved to April, which means award season has gotten even longer. What’s worse, it’s all virtual. Everyone, including the hosts, presenters and nominees are going to be tuning… Continue reading Boothby Cocktail
Apple Pie Pork Chops
Back in the “old world” before Covid, I used to get together with several other bloggers at Melissa’s Produce. We’d talk and enjoy an amazing lunch and then have a Q&A with a specific chef about their newest cookbook. Photos would be taken, there would be cooking demos and so. Much. Food. We were actually… Continue reading Apple Pie Pork Chops
Peaches & Cream Cocktail
In case you haven’t noticed, I’m a huge peach fan. As soon as they appear at farmer’s markets and grocery stores, I buy them by the bushel. Like apples in the fall and citrus in the winter, when peaches are in season, there are so many varieties. You could easily have one (or ten) every… Continue reading Peaches & Cream Cocktail
Blood Orange Olive Oil Cake
I love citrus season! It’s that great time of year, smack dab in the dead of winter, when all the bright, sweet citrus bombard farmers markets everywhere. It’s when you are no longer limited to Eureka lemons or Navel oranges. Instead you can grab some Meyer lemons or Cara Cara oranges. There are also Satsuma… Continue reading Blood Orange Olive Oil Cake
Super Bowl Hasselback Potatoes
I’ve never been a big potato person. Didn’t matter if they were mashed or roasted, baked or fried, I just never liked the taste or the texture. It didn’t matter if you bathed them in salt or sour cream, bacon or chives. If it was a white potato, I was out. But those orange sweet… Continue reading Super Bowl Hasselback Potatoes
Black-Eyed Pea Hummus
New Year’s Day is Friday and there’s a tradition that if you eat Black-Eyed Peas on New Year’s Day, you’ll have good luck in the coming new year. I don’t know about you, but with the way 2020 has gone, I could use a little luck, couldn’t you? So, with that in mind, I hit… Continue reading Black-Eyed Pea Hummus
One Minute Before Midnight
I know today is Christmas, but that means that New Year’s Eve is next Thursday, and if there’s one thing we all need this New Year’s Eve, it’s champagne. While there may not be a lot to celebrate this year, there is one thing… the end of 2020. I can’t remember the last time I… Continue reading One Minute Before Midnight
Apple Strudel
From Thanksgiving to New Years, there’s really only one thing I’m thinking about: dessert. Starting with turkey day and all the way through new years there’s always decadent desserts. There are pies and cakes and so many cookies and cookie swaps… it’s easy to see why people tend to gain five to 10 pounds over… Continue reading Apple Strudel
The Bishop Cocktail
Usually this time of year, I’m preparing for three big dinners: Hanukkah, Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. But I don’t just plan the food, I also plan the drinks. I mean, let’s be honest, no meal is complete without a great cocktail. Sure, there is always a bottle (or three) of wine, but no one… Continue reading The Bishop Cocktail
Browned Butter Brookies
It’s cookie season! Normally this time of year I start making tons and tons of cookies. See, by this time, I’d already have had my annual Christmas party with tons of desserts and cocktails. But as you all know, this year, things are a little different. This year there was no party and with the… Continue reading Browned Butter Brookies
