Grilled Steak Lettuce Cups with Finger Limes

Ever since I first saw finger limes on  Cooking on the Weekends, I’ve been wanting to try them and use them in a recipe. Well, I finally got my wish thanks (again) to Camp Blogaway. See there were two little baggies of them from Shanley Farms in my swag bag. I was so excited when… Continue reading Grilled Steak Lettuce Cups with Finger Limes

Boulevardier Cocktail

And we’re back! Last week I took a break from my weekly cocktail post so I could participate in Lucky Leaf’s virtual summer potluck.

I couldn’t have been more wrong. Campari, which… Continue reading Negroni

Plum Buckle

It’s finally stone fruit season. This is my favorite time of year because it’s when the best fruits are available. While I’m a big fan of apples and citrus, nothing compares to a fresh, juicy peach, apricot or plum. It’s true that eating one of these delectable fruits straight from your fruit bowl is perfect… Continue reading Plum Buckle

New Props to Show off my Strawberry Bruschetta

I love food bloggers. They’re so generous, friendly and just an all around nice group of people. Here’s a perfect example of what I’m talking about.
