I know it’s been a little bit, I’ll stop starting blogs like that. You get it, life happens, etc… Anyhoo, I got a new spiralizer yesterday and had to try it out.

I actually made this brunch last weekend, but didn’t get a chance to post about it. I thought maybe you’d like to have these breakfasty ideas going into your weekend to perhaps try out!  I made maple bacon, a champignon Brie omelette, and a bowl of berries.   Here’s a way to make bacon even … More Simple Weekend Brunch

I just had a feeling this would be great, and it was!  Special thanks to a bottle of good Bourbon and the Jurgielewicz Sons’ pre-packed duck breast at http://www.tastyduck.com, this was so delicious and easy.  And I had a great wine pairing too!  The duck comes vacuum-packed in the freezer bag for the perfect ready-to-cook … More Duck Breast with Bourbon Cherry Plum Sauce

I’m still here, I know it’s been a while. I was at the amazing, spectacular, best show ever – the Summer Fancy Food Show in NYC (which I will be writing about shortly). Then I high tailed it out of town for a quick weekender down to NC near Emerald Isle. Made a nice and … More Quick Check-in with some Grilled Shrimp!
