Every summer Saturday from 11 -4pm over 80 artists and a handful of food trucks assemble – we went this past weekend andContinue reading “Assembled at Assembly Row”

Grilled Peach Salsa

I couldn’t do a post about salsa without mentioning one of the best Seinfeld quotes of all time. Agree? On to the salsa…I was soooo sick of eating plain old grilled pork chops so I was perusing the web for some sort of topping. We’ve had BBQ, various chutneys, even this delicious apple topping thatContinue reading “Grilled Peach Salsa”

Banh Mi

We’ve all seen the food trucks around town selling Bahn Mi – Vietnamese-style sandwiches and they…are…yummy! We got home from London and were so food-inspired that we decided to tackle making our own version of a Bahn Mi. And let me tell you…it was easier than we thought…and they came out GREAT! According to Wikipedia,Continue reading “Banh Mi”

Our trip to the UK didn’t just include taking in the sites and tastes of cheery ‘ol London…we also made a trip up to Scotland at the end of the week.

We always make the effort toContinue reading “London Recap, part II – Dining Guide”

Then, I had a few ideas of something to wear and something to make…so I decided to put the second part of my recap on hold until next weekContinue reading “Fourth of July Ice Cream Cones”

Mixed Fruit Crisp

We had just a few strawberries left from our pick-your-own adventure so I thought it would be nice to mix the remaining strawberries with some other fruit to create a Mixed Fruit Crisp. Let’s be honest, you can make a crisp from just about any fruit out there – peaches, blueberries, apples, blackberries, rhubarb, etc…Continue reading “Mixed Fruit Crisp”

Strawberry Mojitos

I mentioned last week that I’d have a couple strawberry recipes for you this week, so here is your first – a cocktail! I just love mojitos – I think they’re the perfect summer beverage. In fact, we had blueberry mojitos as the signature cocktail at our wedding! I thought I’d share with you todayContinue reading “Strawberry Mojitos”

Strawberry Picking

For Father’s Day this year, we decided to go strawberry picking! We were down in Newport, RI and swung by Sweet Berry Farm in Middletown, RI to pick our strawberries and have a little lunch. We had a blast so I had share our day with you! We walked to the strawberry patch… …andContinue reading “Strawberry Picking”
