Simple Spicy Orange Stir Fry
Oh man, this stir fry is a winner! I’ve made a fairly elaborate orange stir fry before, which I certainly like. But lately (especially while my pantry is packed away and I’m cooking at other people’s homes), simplicity trumps all.

Fizzy Prosecco Sunrise
Need a sparkly drink for New Year’s Eve?! You could sip this as the ball drops, or the next morning during brunch. I made this for Christmas morning, and I’m so happy with it. It’s a cross between a tequila sunrise and a mimosa. Sold. Simple, gorgeous, and tasty!

Strawberry Orange Spa Water

Stir-Fry with Spicy Orange Sauce
A favorite restaurant re-creation success! A Chinese restaurant that I frequently got takeout from makes this wonderful spicy orange chicken. It’s one of those things that’s so good, my boyfriend and I were incapable of going there and not ordering it. Their irresistible sauce was a very unnatural bright red hue, and was…
