Sun Dried Tomato Basil Mozzarella Canapés
I love a canapé party – people, music, cocktails, and tiny, beautifully-crafted, savory bites. Canapés can be simple and flavorful, or complex and gorgeous (and also tasty). Sun Dried Tomato Basil Mozzarella Canapés are on the easy side, but take a little finesse to assemble. Sun dried tomato pesto packs a flavorful punch, while subtly…
Curry Lime Cashews
I have a cashew obsession. I will literally consume an entire pound while watching one episode of Daredevil on Netflix. This happened once…no lie! My husband lovingly keeps me in check and reminds me not to buy cashews unless it’s a special occasion. We had some guests over for dinner a few weeks ago (special occasion –…

Herbed Goat Cheese Stuffed Peppadew Goldew Peppers
It was hot here this week! What the heck happened? Oh wait, I live in Texas. The most fickle-climate place ever. The weather teased us with lows in the 30’s and 40’s for three days. Now we are back to highs in the mid 80’s and lows in the 70’s. Fall weather, where did you…
