Melissa’s Pimento Cheese Biscuit Sandwiches & a GIVEAWAY

Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers… or better yet, Melissa’s Produce picked a pound of peppers and presented a plethora of Pinterest-worthy pepper preparations. If that tongue twister didn’t tickle your tongue, then the recipes in Melissa’s new cookbook, The Great Pepper Cookbook (2014; Oxmoor House, $29.95) will. It is packed full of […]

Yesterday I mentioned that April was Grilled Cheese Month and I gave you a phenom recipe for a Peach & Red Pepper Jelly Grilled Cheese. Well, you didn’t think I could leave it at that, did you? When M & I did a grilled cheese tasting night, that peach pie-like sandwich was the front-runner, but […]

Who knew? April is grilled cheese month and since this is the last full week of it, I guess I’m a little behind the game and need to step it up a notch. Grilled cheese was one of the 3 types of foods that got me through my first trimester of pregnancy and I love […]

Mat Kearney & Wine, Ham and Gorgonzola Tartlets & a GIVEAWAY!

Every once in a while you come across someone who is truly genuine. Someone who doesn’t compromise himself for fame or fortune or the chance to be the next new thing. A person who clings to honesty and authenticity in all he stands for. I met a person last weekend who has such character and […]

OK, so cheese isn’t exactly the healthiest food in the world but there’s no reason it can’t be incorporated into a healthy diet. I often use low fat cheese in my recipes but when I want to just chow down on a hunk of aged dairy, I want the real stuff. The best cheese to […]

Oh Valentine’s Day, I’m never sure what to think about you. On one hand, the idea of a day for lovers to express what they mean to each other is kind of endearing. On the other, it’s usually filled with expectation, obligation and for some, disappointment. I have pretty much nixed V-day because I really […]

When I first got to know M, I started to realize that he did some things backwards. He would call his foot his leg, switch out words in a sentence and regularly exchange dinner for lunch. Now, I must explain that he is Austrian so mixing up the words doesn’t sound too strange considering English […]

Living in San Diego I’ve eaten my share of tacos. Hey besides a big fat burrito, it’s the perfect late-night drunk food! My favorite kind of tacos are garlic shrimp tacos and Baja fish tacos. They are so good with a margarita on a hot summer day! I’ve seen people put all kinds of things […]
