I’ve said it many times and I’ll say it again…I love pasta! I do, I really do! I wanted to use tortiglioni for this recipe because I find that sauce sticks to this pasta so well because of the little ridges. What I love about this recipe is that it saves you time by […]

  Couscous should be a staple in your home because of the simple fact that it takes less than five minutes to make! It’s basically granules of semolina made from durum wheat, which is what pasta is made from. See where this is going? If you like the taste of pasta, you’ll like the taste […]

  Bars are such a great way for me to get creative with flavors! I picked up some butterscotch chips while I was at the store the other day and I wanted to incorporate them into a recipe. The first thing that came to my mind was apple pie! These bars in a nut shell […]

  For this Vegan recipe I was going for the texture of Alfredo pasta which is made with cheese and butter, so I decided to use a creamy tofu paste as a substitute. The olive oil and mushrooms already add a lot of texture to the dish, so the tofu just gave it that extra […]

  These delectable little cookies are the perfect addition to your afternoon cup of coffee! I call them Cappuccino Cookies because they have a slight coffee taste from the coffee extract but a milky taste from the white chocolate chips. You can even forget the cup of coffee and have these with a tall cold […]

Anything that naturally rich in taste and color has me sold. I use my fabulous Breville juicer for all my juices, I highly recommend one. Ingredients 1 […]

My father was recently given an Underwood Standard Typewriter No.3 as a gift and I was instantly mesmerized by it. There’s something about ”old” that’s magical to me. As I photographed it, I imagined where its home once was. With each key I pressed my mind drifted to thoughts of the man or woman who […]

Chirping birds gently awoke me this Sunday morning as if they were calling me outside to play. I picked a simple rose to photograph and then my mind just wandered, dreaming and exploring. After reading some Descartes the other week I was inspired by a quote and a few decorations from home. Needless to say, […]

I was about to say that these pancakes are my first pumpkin recipe this fall but then I remembered what happened last week. My first creation was eaten so quickly I didn’t even get a chance to take pictures, so I’ll be posting that pumpkin recipe as soon as I make it again, pictures and […]

I have to say, this is the best Tiramisu I’ve ever tried. It’s so light and the flavor is so delicate. I’ve tasted plenty of Tiramisu desserts at restaurants, but nothing compares to this one. I received it from a family friend a long time ago and tweaked it a bit. Try it out and […]
