You heard that right. Trix. Krispies. No I am not kidding. Yes, they are as incredible as they sound. Now, I have to admit, I have not tried the various other krispie recipes I've seen around lately. Making them anyway. I've certainly consumed my fair share. It is all the rage to do outrageous things… Continue reading Trix Krispies
Sirloin Steak with Garlic Butter
Do you want to know why your steak at a restaurant is a taste explosion drenched in awesome and your BBQ beef is just passable? Come on. You know you're dying to find out.

Snickerdoodle Blondies
I've never been super attracted to blondes. I'm more of a dark and handsome kind of gal. Brownies over blondies every time. Until now. These buttery bars have a secret weapon - glorious cinnamon sugar deliciousness swirling all thru the sweet dough. In addition to being a bar version of one of my most favorite… Continue reading Snickerdoodle Blondies
Spinach Artichoke Pasta Bake
Meatless Monday strikes again! This is one of my very favorite pasta dishes. Full of veggie flavor and rich creamy pasta. It comes together quickly and is good for parties, potlucks or just an evening at home with the family. Not the most photogenic dinner in the world but oh so tasty. Enjoy! Spinach Artichoke… Continue reading Spinach Artichoke Pasta Bake
The Perfect Mai Tai
I went thru a lot of product testing to come up with this recipe. For hours I slaved, tasting batch after batch to ensure a perfect drink experience. The things I go thru for you. Really. I wanted something island-y that would harken me back to days spent curling my toes in warm soft sandy… Continue reading The Perfect Mai Tai
Fish Tacos with Cilantro Lime Sour Cream
My first experience with fish tacos was in Maui. My husband and I went to a little dive in Kihei and drank Mai Tais and enjoyed numerous fish tacos. It was bliss. I was hooked (ha-ha-ha) at first bite (ok, I'll stop now). Since returning from our second honeymoon, I've tried recreating the delicious spice… Continue reading Fish Tacos with Cilantro Lime Sour Cream
Fabulous Four Bean Salad
Full of bright colors, tang and texture, this bean salad is sure to be a hit at your next get-together. This salad requires a little time to hang out at the vinegar dressing dance party (aka: in your fridge), but if you know your way around a can opener, you throw the salad together in… Continue reading Fabulous Four Bean Salad
Hot Monkey
Holy strong drink Batman. I gave this baby a whirl the other night and the next thing I knew I was in a banana tinged daze. No idea where the name comes from aside from the obvious fact that you will act like a monkey after drinking one. And I do mean one. Good luck… Continue reading Hot Monkey
Buffalo Chicken Empanadas
Honestly? These are kind of like homemade hot pockets. At least that's what the hubby tells me. I've never personally had a hot pocket. Just add it to the list of things "all" children of the 80's have eaten that I haven't. Also included are pop tarts & hamburger helper. What can I say? My… Continue reading Buffalo Chicken Empanadas
Nanaimo Bars
I first saw these amazing bars when visiting Victoria for my sister's birthday weekend. My mom and I popped into a little coffee-house to pick up some liquid caffeine and while we were waiting I drooled over the divine treats in their glass cases. These caught my eye as I'd never heard of them before.… Continue reading Nanaimo Bars
