Mulled wine – the quintessential holiday beverage! It’s a big ole’ warm and fuzzy hug in a mug. You’ll feel warm through and through and your kitchen will smell ahhhh..mazing! My neighbors have voted me as the official cocktail maker for our annual Halloween Trick or Treat get together! I’m honored, but I owe it […]
Take A Peek Inside A Bee Hive
OIL & HONEY EDITION While working with the bee hives at the science center I meet many school kids, parents, grandparents and teachers. Often times I hear comments such as, “OH, look a beekeeper!”, or “look there’s bees, they make honey” or “NO, don’t go over there, they’ll sting you!”. The latter phrase is often shouted […]
Best Snickerdoodle Recipe Ever
If you love a Snickerdoodle and you are a chocoholic you’re going to go bonkers over this recipe! Intensely chocolate and packed with a flavor punch of cinnamon, they are the best Snickerdoodle EVER! I have to give credit to “Miss T” for sharing this recipe with me. I will also take this opportunity to […]
European Veggie Soup Puree
European Style Veggie Soup seemed like a tasty edition to my “soft diet”. My body was trying to heal from a bout of diverticulitis yet it was also begging for some vegetables and nutrients. A soft diet is challenging at best when it comes to incorporating nutrients. Seriously one can only eat so many bowls […]
Stewed Apples With Honey & Lemon EO
Oil & Honey Edition – My soft diet was wearing thin until I decided to make a pot of stewed apples. Soft – yes, but with a bit of texture and delicious flavors. If you didn’t read about my recent diagnosis of “diverticulitis” you may not get where I’m coming from. Read it here. If you […]
B Cellars A Wine & Food Pairing
When I discovered that B Cellars keeps beehives on their property I knew visiting this vineyard would be highly anticipated, not only to see the hives, but I’d arranged a food and wine pairing…my favorite way to go wine tasting! My childhood friend The Wine Wrangling Woman, and I were scheduled for a mid-morning visit at the winery in […]
Wine Tasting At Elizabeth Spencer
At the urging of the Wine Wrangling Woman’s daughter, our next stop brought us to the Elizabeth Spencer tasting room. Housed in an adorable cottage style, red brick building in Rutherford, Elizabeth Pressler and Spencer Graham began making wine together in 1997. Prior to selling wines together, which they began executing in 2000, both Elizabeth and Spencer enjoyed […]
Pollen And What It Takes To Get It
OIL & HONEY EDITION Bees are interesting creatures. They live peacefully together, thousands to a home. They work together to protect the queen, raise brood, clean the hive, build comb, produce honey, forage for nectar and pollen, control the temperature inside and guard the hive. It’s a process that begins upon hatching, when the newly […]
Blackbird Vineyards Tasting – One Of A Kind
Blackbird Vineyards was the second stop on my first day of touring wineries in Napa Valley. I visited in August when morning temperatures send you scrambling for a sweater, but by mid-morning you find yourself stripping it off. As I arrived at Blackbird the sun was beaming warm and bright and the coolness of the open […]

Some of the requirements of a food blogger are delving through countless recipes, recipe development, preparing the recipes, photographing them, editing photos, and writing. Oh […]
