Somehow the stores are gearing up for back to school. Apparently fall is coming? (Someday?) But it’s still 110 degrees in the shade right now and I’m HOT. And so are the kids. Enter: snow cones!
There are a bunch of recipes floating around the interwebs for snow cone syrups so I just picked out the [...]
We had one glorious almost-70-degree day here in Nashville and it made me SO READY for spring rightnowthisinstant. This, of course, made me want a good salad! I found this dressing recipe in Rick & Lanie’s Excellent Kitchen Adventures, which I love. The recipe is insanely quick, easy and good, which I also love.
One Particular [...]
Summer’s not quite over yet (as evidenced by the 90+ degree September we’re currently having in Nashville), so I thought I’d pass this one along while there’s still some heat in the air.
You can make this with lemon, lime, key lime or any combination thereof; today I had a bunch of limes so limeade it [...]
I resisted “guacamole mixes” for years. I mean, what exactly is IN those little packets of “spices,” “flavor enhancers” etc.? Likely stuff I can’t pronounce. And you KNOW how I feel about that.
Enter: Jason’s Guac Starter. It’s made by a local guy, which is awesome, and I can pronounce everything in there. Also awesome. AND [...]
Ohhhhh my moly.
If I were the demanding type I’d demand that you make these immediately. I’m not, of course so I’ll just strongly suggest it.
The peaches are so good this year and I bought more than I’ll ever be able to eat, so I wanted to some up with something to do with [...]
Just like last year, I planted a bunch o’ tomatoes in the garden in the back yard. Unlike last year, my tomatoes this year came under attack (ATTACK I say!) by bugs. First it was worms (tomato worms? Hornworms? I don’t know. Icky worms). Then came the stinkbugs. All my tomatoes were being eaten and [...]
Some people come from money; I, on the other hand, come from funny (which is even better). My Uncle Steve named this drink. Don’t you love it?
The folks over at Pom Wonderful contacted me a while back and asked if they could send me some of their juice to try (for free, okay, FTC?). I [...]
This recipe comes from my great aunt Eva who named it thusly. Or perhaps she got it from her mother, my great grandma, who named it thusly? Either way, who am I to argue? It is, indeed, one of the easiest desserts you’ll ever make.
It is also from an era when food wasn’t asked to [...]
What it is:
Crazy easy to make with only two ingredients
Completely natural, chemical free
What it’s not:
Loaded with high fructose corn syrup
Neon (because, um, ew)
What’s not to like?
Combine these:
16 ounces simple syrup
12 ounces key lime, lime or lemon juice or some combination thereof
Stir or shake to combine. The end! See? Crazy easy. And you can customize it, [...]
It’s summer! The time when I reach for Lucy Buffett’s cookbook before anything else.
This one is based on Lucy’s Cadillac Margarita, adapted to, naturally, include key lime juice. Because I am obsessed love it.
Do me a favor and combine in a shaker:
1.5 ounces tequila
3/4 ounce Grand Marnier
1 ounce key lime juice
1 [...]
