Winter Bucket List + Cozy Cranberry Tea
I’ve heard of Bucket Lists filled with things to do before dying or before reaching a milestone birthday but never one to celebrate a specific season. The list below is my Winter Bucket List inspired this week by Mama Kat’s Writer’s Workshop.
The Daring Bakers’ April 2011 Challenge: Maple Mousse Served in An Edible Container
The April 2011 Daring Bakers’ Challenge was hosted by Evelyne of the blog Cheap Ethnic Eatz. Evelyne chose to challenge everyone to make a maple mousse in an edible container.
Carrot, Apple and Beet Juice
Eggs and toast for breakfast are great but sometimes a glass of juice is all I need. My favorite combination is apple and carrot juice but I’m open to tossing in other fruits and veggies. My sister actually introduced me to juicing beets. She had to be the one to do that though because I’m...
4 Reasons I Would Pack My Things and Move
I’ve moved several times in my life and grew pretty accustomed to the “idea” of it early in my marriage. Steeler Fan’s work required that we move every couple of years as he climbed the ladder. Now that we’re years past all of that, I’ve grown to enjoy being in one place. However, I would...
My Favorite Mexican Torte
I’m so clumsy. Got a wall for me to walk in to? I’m so there. I try my best to protect me from myself by asking everyone to keep inanimate objects out of my path. Like stray shoes. Steeler Fan likes to kick his shoes off at the end of the day. Yep. Right in...
Buttermilk Pie
When I was growing up, I didn’t even like the concept of buttermilk. I thought the thick, sour liquid should remain in the carton it was stored in. So, the first time I heard of Buttermilk Pie, I was a little more than apprehensive about trying it. A couple family members swore to me that...

Chicken Sausage Linguine
Hello, my name is Teresa and I laugh at my own jokes. It usually happens during some random light-hearted conversation with Steeler Fan. While we’re talking I say something that I think is funny. Not like ha ha that’s so funny But like laughing silently while biting your little pinky fingernail funny Then like Laughing...
Hot Cocoa and Birthday Surprises
The following was inspired by the Writer’s Workshop hosted by Mama Kat at Mama’s Losin It! The prompt I chose this week was: 4) Read the quote and let it inspire your post: “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you...
Meyer Lemon Parfaits
I have piles of recipes clipped from magazines and newspapers, picked up from displays in the grocery store and even taken home as souvenirs from cooking shows and other foodie events. If you’re like me, you may have a difficult time trying to decide on which to try next. This week my job was made...
Pacci Ristorante: A Rooftop Indulgence
On Saturday, the Atlanta Food Bloggers Alliance was invited to an afternoon of tastings at Pacci Ristorante. From the moment I stepped inside the beautiful dining space, I knew this event would have to be something special. We gathered first in the cozy bar/lounge area of the restaurant. There we were greeted by Chef Keira...
