Cook, Tan, Eat, Repeat.
I am going to try and not make this post ramble on and dart from this story to that, but I’m very afraid I won’t be able to do that. Why? Because I’ll be speaking of lemons. And Limoncello. Which means Italy. And this time specifically the Amalfi coast. And we all know what happensContinue reading Limoncello Lemon Curd Ice-Cream
I’m sick today. Stomach flu. Yes I’m starting today’s food blog off like this. I’m bored. There’s nothing to watch on Netflix. My eyes are too tired to read my friends new book that I’m dying to read. My stomach can’t handle my eyes scrolling through my food feed. I feel so weak I shouldContinue reading Stuffed French Toast Dippers
When we were planning our trip to Europe earlier this year, I knew I needed to see more mountains. We had visited Switzerland last year and it did not disappoint. It actually blew me away. What do you expect when you end up in an airbnb with a view like this? This was before IContinue reading Potato Cakes
Oh man, it’s the dog days of summer. It’s so hot here the past few days if I drink any more water, it’ll start coming out of my pores. September and October are the hardest months for me here on the Mayan Riviera. It’s officially low season for tourism, which is great for traffic andContinue reading Herb Feta Orzo Salad
When I posted this on Instagram yesterday, I had a few people, even close friends, shocked at the fact that I am not a fan of Tiramisu, the dessert. I’m not sure why. Let’s analyze. I like coffee, but I don’t LOVE coffee. I can live without it. Same goes for Kahlua, the coffee-flavored liquor. Continue reading Tiramisu ice-cream
Isn’t it great when something so simple is so good? Perhaps I feel this way because I never ate farro until recently. Living in Mexico means I’m not sure what is commonly used in the rest of North America. Meaning, when I tried farro for the first time this summer in Italy, I just presumedContinue reading Farro Pesto salad
I’ve loved this recipe for many years, but I thought I would never share it. I’m soooooo not good at frosting cupcakes. It’s actually been something that makes me a little crazy. And a pretty cupcake is, lets face it, all about that swirl. But, I figured that if I keep telling people to learnContinue reading Lime Cupcakes
We all have childhood memories: memories that can be brought back unexpectedly by the simplest things: a picture, a smell, a song, a word. When we realize we can’t go back to these simpler times, sometimes we want to re-create them. That doesn’t always work though. Have you ever gone back to a restaurant thatContinue reading Creamsicles
Yes, I’m still dreaming of and talking about Italy. I’m not sure I will ever stop. Can you blame me when it looks like this? And you eat things like this? You know what I love about this picture? It’s messy. It’s like the chefs know their ingredients are great: that rested dough, those slices ofContinue reading Braised Tomatoes and Burrata
I will eat them in a house. I would eat them with a mouse. I would eat them in a box. I would eat them with a fox. Okay, maybe the mouse part is stretching it. Noodles. I’m referring to noodles. Pasta. Dumplings. Whatever they’re called where you live. Any which way I can getContinue reading Baked Cheesy Spaetzle with Crispy Onions
