I have a confession to make. I am a lazy, lazy woman. That, and I hate driving. In fact, I hate it so much that it gets factored into a lot of decisions that I make. Driving time and distance both influenced my choice of employers, residence, and recreation. I am the worst road trip
April Lapse and an Update
Well, I’ve gone and done it. I broke my promise to post at least one recipe and one review per month. April was kind of a crazy month, so I owe all of my loyal readers an apology. In other news, I bought a house (yay!)! The kitchen, while large, is just as outdated as
Bourbon Pecan Pie
March 14th was Pi Day! Being the nerd that I am, how could I let the date pass without making pie? I don’t really making fruit pies, because I am not a fan of cooked fruit (I know, I’m a weirdo). But, this pecan pie is always a hit when I make it. And, while
Cafe Maxx (A Review)
Normally, I am allergic to driving long distances. However, Cafe Maxx was recommended to me by a reliable source, and I am not one to shy away from a commute if there is a good meal to be had at the destination. With that in mind, I made the trip to Cafe Maxx in Pompano
Brunch at Edge Steak and Bar
Sundays are usually “chore day” at my place. That’s when I get all of those things done that I’ve been too busy (or lazy) to take care of during the week. As such, I normally don’t get out much on Sundays. That is, until someone says the word “brunch.” Honestly, is there anything else worth
Red Velvet Nutella Rolls
Skip to Recipe Normally, I suck at posting recipes that have a holiday theme. In fact, it’s by sheer luck and coincidence that I came across a recipe for Red Velvet Nutella Rolls from Yammie’s Noshery just one week before Valentine’s Day. They’re red velvet, and they’re shaped like hearts! It’s as though the universe
Burgie Awards 2015
Renown South Florida blogger, Burger Beast, brought the Burgie Awards back for a sixth year. The Burger Awards, which awarded 15 prizes for the best in South Florida comfort food, as free and open to the public. It was a great opportunity to catch a lot of the food trucks that I hadn’t gotten a
Eggnog Mini Cheesecakes
Skip to Recipe The holidays have come and gone, leaving a trail of obesity and broken diets in their wake. I, for one, have no regrets. Sure, none of my pants fit me quite right anymore, but it was worth it. Plus, it’s a great time for some baking experimentation. I came up with this
Festival of Chocolate 2015
After being on hiatus last year, the Festival of Chocolate returned to South Florida! This event, which is not to be confused with a similar event that takes place at Fairchild Tropical Garden around this time of the year, is a celebration of all things chocolate. There were plenty of vendors, cooking demonstrations, and fun
Johnny V (A Review)
Dining out on a budget is one of my favorite pastimes. So, it is only natural that I took advantage of Dine Out Lauderdale, Ft. Lauderdale’s answer to Miami Spice. When you have high-end restaurants offering $35 fixed price meals, it’s hard to pass up. Since it was a place that I have been meaning
