  • Strawberry, Mango, Banana & White Port Sorbet

    I made sorbet with my food processor tonight!  I should also tell you that I’m so excited about it, I initially wrote that first sentence in all caps.  But that seemed a little aggressive.  I don’t want to scare you away.  Anyway …. 

  • Carob-Covered Strawberry Smoothie

  • Strawberry Basil Lemonade Spritzer

    Happy Saturday, folks!  I had a fantastic spring day wine tasting in Napa with a wonderful friend of mine.    I made a nice light sparkly (and hydrating) spring drink for us to sip along the way: a strawberry basil lemonade spritzer. I thought it would be a great way to start a day before wine…

  • Roasted Strawberry Shortcake w/ Tarragon Biscuits

        Yes, roasted strawberries!    If you have never tried roasting strawberries, you. should. do. it.  Roasted strawberries are indescribable.

  • Lava Flow Sorbet

    Piña Colada sorbet.  With strawberry sauce on top.  What else can I say?   This recipe is inspired by one of my Hawaiian treats!  I had a couple Lava Flow drinks during my trip (spiked and virgin versions, both amazing!)  They’re piña coladas with some kind of amazing red fruit puree poured down the sides…

  • Blueberry & Strawberry Cornmeal Pancakes

      A few days ago while I was looking around other food blogs, I saw a couple references to a very weird holiday – National Peanut Butter Day!  Apparently Tuesday was it!  I was very intrigued, and had to look up more weird food holidays, and found this gigantic list of them.  Now I don’t…
