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…
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…
TKBT On Location:
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…

Want to really impress her, top this decadently Chocolate Cake with the perfect easy Ganache! Yum Yum! To all the Mothers (and soon to be Mothers) out there, I want to wish you a…
Holy Guacamole!
Avocados are a funny thing. They’re kind of like Cilantro in the way that people respond to them. People are either a huge fan or they really can’t stand them. Admittedly, I was in the latter camp on both accounts. As you can see from my last recipe, Cinco de Mayo Street Tacos, and this…
Captain America Pancakes
Hey! It’s Tax Day here in the USA!!! Yay! But who wants to talk about that? Not me…I’d rather talk food and Superheroes and make Captain America Pancakes! How bout you? Less than a week from today (April 23rd to be exact), Avengers: Infinity War, the latest installment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), is…
