How to Make a Candy Wreath!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving surrounded by family, friends and good food!  We had a great time and as always ate way too much.  Over the past week I had 3 dinner parties and to say the least, I’m pooped!  Never the less it’s time to gear up...

Party Weekend Recipes!

Please forgive me for being scarce these days and for not stopping by your blog as often to say hello, but it will pick up after the 1st of the year.  I’ve been extremely busy with culinary classes and events. Wow! What a busy weekend.  I was so exhausted.  Our...

Black Quinoa Asian Slaw

One of my favorite places to grocery shop is Whole Foods Market.  Everything they have in my opinion is incredible.  Walking into the produce section is like walking into a carnival of bright, fresh, fruits and vegetables stacked neat and clean but in perfect view and reach for everyone. ...
