Bubbly Limoncello Cocktail
When I came across this cocktail, my heart ached a little knowing how much my grandma would have loved it. The combination of Limoncello and Prosecco floating around a lemon sorbet is sinfully citrus and perfect for a warm and humid summer evening.
MCM Books: The Sicilian Inheritance
Before even cracking it open, I knew I would love this book for one simple reason: Jo based the storyline on her own family history and centuries old tale that her great grandmother was murdered. Like I said, I have my own “rich” family history, and that is what makes this book immediately intriguing. We’ve all heard stories about our family, but what really happened?
The Rediscovery of Connection
Imagine for a minute, you are a wrinkly old raisin, sitting in your nursing home wheelchair, barely able to see your great grandchild sitting next to you thanks to your cataract eyes. What would you tell them about life?
Artichoke & Olive Salsa
When you see "bring a dish to share" in a large group text, it can induce a little panic. But, I guarantee this Artichoke and Olive Salsa will become your go-to dish. It's so refreshing and pairs perfectly with tortilla chips or crackers.
It's my turn to say goodbye...

2024: To be inspired, not influenced
So, considering we are halfway through January and I still haven't started my Whole 30 diet plan, I want my resolution in 2024 to focus more on what I love and not what society is loving at the moment. I want to buck the mainstream trend and go with what makes me feel genuinely me.
Ghostly Floating Heads
Let's get this out there right away: I ripped this off of a Martha Stewart post. That lady knows how to craft! And even though I didn't recreate these cheesecloth ghosts in the exact same way, the elegant effect is the same. These ghosts are creepy and beautiful all at the same time.
