You can call it Artichoke Bruschetta or Crostini, but it won’t matter as much as the 3 words on the tip of your tongue This is delicious…

Spearmint ice cream has an herbal, almost grassy quality. It’s not super sweet like toothpaste. It’s earthier and very satisfying.

A fruit salad that has tomatoes as a main ingredient. Yeah? Well that’s why we call it a fruit salad!

Grilling season is underway. I grilled up a Chimichurri marinated flank steak with grilled radicchio & onions.

Kumquat Gelée. Kumquat liqueur paired with Lillet and Prosecco. Do not dare call it a Kumquat Jello-Shooter. REALLY!

Wild mushrooms top this super creamy polenta. It’s made creamy (and delicious) with the addition of goat cheese.

These asparagus spears are a great shade of purple. They taste very similar to the green variety with just an extra hint of sweetness.

Cheesecake with the sophisticated flavors of ricotta, mascarpone, & rhubarb. Even the crust is special. It is made with cornmeal.

Terrine de Campagne is more than just a fancy name for meatloaf. This rustic pâté w/ pork and chicken livers, is tasty & easy to make too.
