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.

We both love to cook and bake, and… Continue reading Mixed Berries with Mascarpone-Limoncello Cream

Strawberry Shortcake
Today is the first day of Spring. Yippee! Spring means longer (hopefully warmer) days, long walks, blooming flowers, chirping birds and that Summer is just around the corner. Today was a picturesque Spring day in the Pacific Northwest. Gorgeous. Really, I don't think people who live anywhere else (except maybe Wales) can appreciate a crisp… Continue reading Strawberry Shortcake
