In mid-July I traveled to New York City for the BlogHer15 conference. The conference schedule is non-stop but I found that I had a few free hours midweek to explore the city. Having lived in NYC for a couple of years, back in the day, I wasn’t interested in merely pounding the pavement and hitting all […]
Food Tour – Charlotte
Recently I had the pleasure of attending a walking food tour in Charlotte, N.C. My daughter was visiting from Napa, where we had taken a food tour back in January. She suggested a local tour in North Carolina and since I thoroughly enjoy these kinds of “tours” I hooked us up with Tour de Food – […]
Shrimp Sauce Piquante
Growing up in southeast Texas right on the Louisiana border I developed a taste for cajun and creole dishes at an early age . My Dad could take lots of heat, my mom, not so much and I fall somewhere in the middle, leaning towards the hot side. Shrimp, preferably gulf shrimp, are one of […]
Mussels In White Wine For Two
While working on developing a recipe for the Sustainable Seafood Blog Project I visited the seafood department of my local Whole Foods. If you read the SSBP post you know I pay particular attention to where my seafood comes from as well as how it was caught. I found these fresh, east coast mussels had just […]
Seafood Dinner
I’m so excited today to share a fresh, healthy and savory seafood recipe with you. What I am even more psyched about is my partnership with the Sustainable Seafood Blog Project! Participating in a conversation about sustainability, especially when it comes to our seafood, justifies my struggle with seeking out and purchasing sustainable seafood. Most of us don’t think of fish […]
A Week In Napa
Recently I had the pleasure of spending a week in Napa, California. Most of us are familiar with the name “Napa”. It conjures up visions of countless vineyards and tasting rooms complete with limos whisking groups of fun-loving tasters from tasting room to tasting room, empty nesters strolling through the wineries, sipping glasses of Cab whilst enjoying each […]
Steel Cut Oats Pancakes
This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and Quaker. All opinions are mine alone. #MyOatsCreation #CollectiveBias Steel Cut Oats are not as well known as regular Quaker Oatmeal or even quick cook Oatmeal. The first time I tasted Steel Cut Oats was back in the 70’s while staying with a friend in L.A. She had discovered […]
Mispronounced Food Words
Food words are often mispronounced. I attribute this to the fact that so many of the foods we enjoy are not “American”. We love foods from so many countries here in America that we need lessons in how to correctly pronounce some of these words! How about “Ancho” or “Anise“, “Croissant” or “Boudin” (one of my […]
Turkey Pot Pie
We love pot pie here at The Orange bee. My homemade is our all-time favorite. It’s reminiscent of childhood Sunday evening meals, with a pot pie hot from the oven, in it’s tiny little cardboard cup with Ed Sullivan, black and white on the television set. Once I decided to make these from scratch they […]
