10 Months Later....



Sorry I haven't had time to post my new recipes or drinks in such a long time. Life's been a little hectic.

I am, however, here to post links to some fabulous dishes and desserts I've collected along the way. And hopefully, I'll have a new martini recipe (or three) coming up soon.

In the desserts department, oh - you must try this Key Lime White Chocolate Mousse Cheesecake. And a new favorite, Strawberry Shortcake. Finally, here's a Banana Split Cake that I made for Justin's 14th birthday*. To. Die. For.

Not to be outdone are the main courses. We loved this Shrimp Creole, and these Southern Fried Catfish Sandwiches. Also making a frequent stop on our dinner table is Chicken and Waffles, a Harlem favorite.

Give any of these - or better yet, all of them - a try. Definitely worth your time.


*Here's a tip: don't use the toffee bits on this ice cream cake. Use nuts. Why? The toffee bits are frozen, and when you take a bite, they stick to your teeth. Then you take another bite of ice cream and wowza. I about came out of my chair, my teeth hurt so much. Trust me - go with nuts.
