Apparently these cookies are all the rage. I haven't tried making them yet, but they look delicious. I wanted to share in case you felt like trying the recipe (and sharing some with me:). Salted Butter and Chocolate Chunk Shortbread Cookie Recipe
Cranberry French 75
Looking for a great holiday cocktail to make on Thanksgiving? Check out this Cranberry French 75. I may need to do a trial run before the big day :). Looks festive and delicious!
Fall Nachos
I love this fall version of a classic. Fall Nachos
Roasted Butternut Squash Bruschetta
Fall is in the air which means it's squash season. This is a delectable appetizer and the sweetness from the butternut balances out the saltiness of the cheese making it totally addicting. Roasted Butternut Squash Bruschetta
Prosecco Slushie with Grapesicles
Who doesn't love a good glass of Prosecco? Below is a recipe for Prosecco Slushies and Grapesicles which I like to use as a garnish. Cheers to warm summer days and cold delicious drinks! Prosecco Slushie
And here is the recipe for Grapesicles but you could use any fruit like strawberries, blueberries etc.
Grilled Baby Potato Salad
Although I haven't made this yet, the recipe looked great and I wanted to share. Who wouldn't love kettle cooked potato chips on top of potato salad?! Grilled Baby Potato Salad
Pavlova Recipie
I made this Pavlova recently and loved it! It's a light dessert and great for summer. Pavlova Recipe
Fourth of July Recipes
Looking for festive recipes to make this weekend? Here are a few that will add some red, white & blue to your Fourth of July holiday.
You can't go wrong with a trifle, and putting a little orange zest into the whipped cream adds a nice touch of citrus.
Fruit Pizza I've never tried jelly on it (as the recipe recommends) but it may be good. I'll be making a rectangular version this weekend using strawberries and blueberries to create a flag.
And last but not least, who doesn't love an old school Ice Box Cake
Have a fun and delicious July 4th weekend!

Puffed pasty wrapped bacon anyone??
I was drooling when I saw this recipe for Bacon Cheddar Twists in Puff Pastry on Brunch at Bobby's the other day and had to share. I can't wait to make this as a Sunday morning treat and for the upcoming Easter holiday! I think I'll use the Everything But the Bagel Seasoning from Trader Joe's instead of poppy seeds though. Oh and by the way, and he happened to mention Mrs. London's in Saratoga on this episode too! Love a little upstate NY love on national TV!
The Perfect Winter Meal
Winter is upon us yet again which means comfort food. I wanted to share this amazing recipe from Food & Wine that we made on Christmas Eve, and it ended up being a huge hit! The sweetness of the root vegetable mash went so well with the savory braised beef short rib, it was perfect combo. We plan on making it a few more times this winter. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did! Braised Short Ribs with Root Vegetable Mash
