Who loves French Toast – raise your hand! I don’t make it often, but French Toast is one of those breakfasts I vividly remember my dad making when I was a kid. My dad excels at breakfast-making more than any other meal, and I think it’s probably his favorite meal of the day too. When …

Happy Holidays, friends! 2011 has been an amazing year full of all sorts of yummy treats and recipes I couldn’t have imagined a year or two ago. Today the fourth recipe I’ve created for Green Mountain Coffee debuts. I could not imagine in January what a wonderful year this would be; a highly caffeinated year …
Today marks the 3rd recipe I’ve created for Green Mountain Coffee’s blog, Green Mountain Cafe. As I sit here sipping my first cup of Pumpkin Spice (for the day, not the year – shoot, I’ve been drinking this stuff since it hit shelves August 15th!), I can’t help thinking how excited I am for you …
For the past four years, I’ve been harboring a not-so-secret addiction: my Keurig. If you know me in person, or follow me on Twitter at all, you already know my deep and unabashed love for all things Keurig and Green Mountain Coffee. I’ve talked about them so much and so often that at a recent …
Time for another Tex-Mex lesson! What’s a raspado? Quite simply, a snow cone. But raspados are different in that they have more exotic flavors. Some of the most popular in South Texas include Strawberry Horchata, Lechera (sweetened condensed milk), Watermelon, Tamarind, and Plum. But by far, my favorite? Prickly Pear and Lime.

Today, Green Mountain Coffee is featuring my recipe for Island Coconut Chicken Curry. Why yes, I did make a curry with coffee, and no, I’m not crazy! It’s pretty common knowledge that I have a most intense relationship with my Keurig and the Green Mountain Coffee that I put in it, because I like to …
When I was a kid, my dad was the king of two things: hamburgers and milkshakes. My dad could eat a hamburger for every meal of the day. And he could quite happily drink a vanilla milkshake every day too. (Not that my mother would ever let him.) The other day, James and I received …
I’m away for the next five days or so in sunny Key West, FL. Several of my blogging buddies are filling in for me. First up: Tracy from SugarCrafter. Tracy and I first met at Big Summer Potluck last year, though I’d been a long time admirer of her site. I can attest to just …
It’s no secret that New York City is filled with delightful, delectable, delicious restaurants. I’ve had many good, many great meals in the City that are worth the buzz that’s spoken about them. None have been so memorable to me as the two meals I’ve shared at Hundred Acres. We first wandered into Hundred Acres …
