Bruce and I will be bringing y’all recipes for weekday dinners, weekend brunching, sweet treats & cocktail recipes! First and foremost, we want to hear from y’all on what you would like to see from us! Clearly, our recipes should be easy to follow, delicious, and approachable. 

Although we try to keep things light and healthy like our Dover Sole with White Wine Caper Sauce,  we do splurge with a few comfort food recipes for the weekend! And we all know that Bruce’s desserts are just about the best around. He continues to bring all of us drool worthy cakes, cookies, pies, and more! National dessert day is a weekly celebration over at our house!

Our son will jump in on occasion with recipes for global cuisine that will give us all something to get excited about! We will all learn more about experimenting with fresh ingredients and lots of flavor. Although meat will be in some of his meals, we will all find out how to use more vegetables and lots of spices to make dinners something to dream about! 

Finally,  I am here for your cocktail hour! Fresh cocktail recipes for happy hour are my thing!  I especially love making simple syrups with ripe fruit. In addition to making simple syrups, I will show you how to mix and match citrus with these syrups to add to vodka, gin and more! Crafting a show-stopper cocktail at home has never been easier! And we would love to hear from y’all on what you would want to see more of! Tell us what breakfast, dinner, or cocktail recipes! Let us know if you want more salads, soups, appetizers, brunch ideas, or cocktails!

We so hope you are loving what you are reading, and will let us know what you want to see more of!
