Summer fruits and herbs go together like peaches and blueberries, strawberries and chocolate, and of course pie and ice cream — the best pairing ever! No the lovely pairing of fruits and herbs aren’t ones that automatically come to mind when you think of summer flavors, or any flavor pairing for that matter, but they…
French Vanilla Coffee Ice Cream
If you follow me along on Instagram and saw my story last month, then you saw me using up the last of that darn gallon of milk used in this Salted Caramel Ice Cream and these Milk Tarts “Queijadas de Leite.” I was experimenting and testing my luck with a highly caffeinated ice cream, I…
Salted Caramel Ice Cream
Ice cream makes everything in life that much better. I wholeheartedly live by that mantra. The comfort a creamy sweet scoop brings when a random craving hits or whenever you’re feeling sad, the joyful memories of hearing the ice cream truck sing its tune when you were a child or the times spent enjoying a…
Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread
I see your yummy comforting banana bread, and I challenge you with a classic Zucchini Bread, a chocolate chip one at that!! Don’t get me wrong I do enjoy a nice thick slice of banana bread, but there’s something a bit more subtle and simple about zucchini bread and cake that I savor just a…
Chocolate – Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ice Cream
Where most would say January felt long and dragged, I on the other hand felt it was long in every perfect way! The kind of slow and long that allowed time for work, free creative time, time for personal stuff and simple relaxing things like stitching, cooking, baking and reading. But February. Now, February has…
Peanut Butter Chocolate Swirl Ice Cream topped with Bananas Foster … No Churn
Lately I’ve been craving ice cream, I mean who isn’t with warm days and summer upon us. Add in that my mind is still not over all the ice cream treats and details from Delia’s darling birthday celebration, the food theme party of my dreams. If only I had a personal ice cream truck serving…
Peach & Raspberry Pandowdy
Oh sweet sweet summertime, you’re sadly coming to your end once again. Although summer isn’t over until the end of September, and even though I continue to ride the summer vibes until the east coast weather officially turns on us, for most Labor Day marks the unofficial end of this season, I love so much….
Sweet & Savory Summer Fruit Salad
Nothing beats juicy ripe fresh summer fruits, like a chilled slice of watermelon on a hot sunny day or savoring a sweet like honey melon on a warm night gazing up at the starry summer sky. It’s one of the many reasons I love summer fruits, not only are they beyond delicious, they’re almost always…
Mango Curd Ice Cream
And just like that, another summer month is coming to its end. July where did you go so quickly? I didn’t get to enjoy and make nearly enough ice cream to commemorate National Ice Cream Month. This food holiday isn’t just a fad either, it’s been around since 1984 when President Ronald Reagan declared July as…
Mango Coconut Cream Pie
Sweet sweet summertime. You are warm and fresh, colorful and ripe with so many juicy seasonal flavors. And I’m going to apologize to all of you right now because I’ve been working on putting together several summer recipes to share on the blog the next few weeks, but the only thing is that a good chunk…
