I refuse to let Summer go! Technically, Fall doesn’t begin until September 22nd, but Labor Day always seems to feel like the last Hoorah of summer. In my World, Labor Day is synonymous with grilling and great side dishes like Homemade Potato Salad. For those of you not from the United States, Labor Day is…
American Recipes
Chili, cornbread, a proper baked potato, BBQ chicken pizza — American cooking is comfort food with a capital C, and it's perfectly at home in a tiny kitchen. These are the classics done right, built for one or two people.
Avocado Baked Eggs
Admittedly, I am one who, more often than not, skips breakfast. It’s not good. I know. I know. And…actually, I notice a difference on the days when I’ve had a good breakfast versus those where I don’t have anything…or I think I’ll get by with a cup of coffee and a protein bar. Never seems…

Watermelon Sorbet
As DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince once rapped in that (ahem, my) 90’s favorite, Summertime: Here it is, a recipe slightly transformed Just a bit of a break from the norm Just a little somethin’ to break the monotony Of all that hardcore heat that has gotten to be A little bit out…
Zoodle Lemon Chicken (As Seen on Hallmark Home & Family)
I’ve been traveling a bit this summer and summer is definitely in full force everywhere I am! When I left Los Angeles, we had 115°F. Albeit a dry heat, it was still really, really hot. Shortly thereafter, I made my way to Atlanta where it was nearly 95°F…not 115°F for sure, but with high humidity,…
Red, White and Blue Velvet Cupcakes
On July 4th, we celebrate America and the signing of the Declaration of Independence 242 years ago on July 4, 1776. I just love America and everything that goes along with this National holiday, like parades and fireworks and picnics and flags and, of course, all the great 4th of July themed foods. Hopefully these…

Happy 4th of July! Here in America, we are truly blessed to have so many things to be thankful for this Independence Day. With all the fun celebrations comes great food and a need to figure out what to bring to the BBQ. These 4th of July Fruit Skewers are a great addition to any…

The $10,000 Food Network Award-Winning Crab Cake
(feat. Demal Mattson)
It’s no secret, I love food. But it’s more than just something that tastes great. I love how food connects people. Whether a family sitting across the table from each other, a couple out on their first date or two friends chatting over food, eating is something we all have in common and something that…

Sparkling Cocktails (Morning Mimosa,
TK Bay Berry Fizz, Classic Champagne Cocktail)
A few years back, I started having a real appreciation for Champagne. Before that, I never really considered it as an option because, frankly, I didn’t really like it. Of course, we had Martinelli’s Sparkling Cider growing up on holidays and I loved that. But then, I remember tasting Champagne for the first time when…
Açaí Bowl
Açaí! Pronounce ah-sigh-ˈEE, it’s one of those cool words I envision yelling as I launch from a zip line platform in the middle of the Brazilian rainforest. Açaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii! They probably have a zipline somewhere in the rainforest, right? Well, until I have the good fortune to take a trip to Brazil (which is definitely on…
Homemade Croutons
A crouton is the type of thing that I think most people overlook. I did. Sure, croutons are supposed to add a little crunch to a salad, but in my experience, they’re usually a little stale or soggy, way too garlicky or just taste overly-processed. And so, I think people generally don’t think much about…
