We love visiting and shopping our local Farmers Curb Market in Greensboro. Dating back to 1874, open Saturdays 7am- noon and Wednesdays from 8am-1pm, it is one of the oldest markets in North Carolina.

Coctel de Camarones -this is without a doubt one of my absolute favorite dishes. As the weather is heating up here in North Carolina I’m dreaming of digging into one of these. When I take a bite and close my eyes I am transformed to a gorgeous ocean view with sea breezes blowing through my […]

Fish Tacos are one of my favorite meals. When my man, Dan brought home some fresh snapper fillets last weekend I seasoned them, threw them on the grill and presto! Fresh fish tacos. It doesn’t get better than this. Luckily I had the ingredients to make the pico and chipotle mayo. Fresh, healthy and perfect […]
If you’ve been following my blog you might have noticed that bottled salad dressing is not my favorite. I’ll take oil and vinegar over bottled dressing any day. It’s such a simple affair to whip up one’s own dressing and the rewards are terrific. Well worth the effort. This is one of those recipes I […]
