Liberte Mediterranee

August 26, 2010

I picked up this brand of yogurt the other day while at Whole Foods (my home away from home). I hadn’t tried it and it was on sale so I went for it. I’m usually reluctant to try new yogurts without a recommendation because you just never know what to expect…and I’m really picky. But [...]

Mocha Frap= My new fave drink

June 3, 2010

I have a confession to make. Starbucks’ mocha frappuccino light is my new favorite drink. I’m obsessed. I have one nearly every day. Geez…that sounds really bad. But I can’t stop! The heat of the scorching summer sun brings cool sweet treats to mind. And my boring office job requires caffeine for concentration (and not [...]

So Delicious Coconut Milk Yogurt

May 18, 2010

I am a huge fan of So Delicious Coconut Milk Products. So, recently I gave this a try. I sampled the strawberry with grapenuts on top for crunch. I’m not sure how I feel about it though. The taste was a bit off from the traditional tang (that I very much enjoy) of traditional yogurt. [...]

Home made root beer and other southern comforts

May 14, 2010

Last weekend I attended my best friend’s wedding in Knoxville, TN. It was a very special occasion for me because it took me back to my home state, giving me a chance to revisit family and old friends. One of the highlights was the rehearsal dinner at the Museum of Appalachia which proudly displays the [...]

Truwhip

May 10, 2010

Have you tried this yet? I picked it up a few weeks ago in celebration of my boyfriend’s 31st birthday. Going for fruit over chocolate (healthy over decadent), we nibbled on strawberry shortcake whilst sipping champagne. And, what better to top if off with than all-natural whipped topping? I love cool whip and whipped cream [...]

New York Pizza in a D.C. Kitchen

February 18, 2010

A few weeks ago, my boyfriend and I decided to make pizza. If there’s one thing I love, it’s pizza! Especially homemade pizza with all my favorite toppings. Typically, we pick-up a pre-made crust (cooked or dough from the fridge section) and just put what we want on top. [As you all know by now, [...]

The Only Fruitcake

January 15, 2010

Yeah, I know what you are thinking. Fruitcake? Ewww. A totally unappealing, mysterious holiday tradition that no one can understand. Usually consisting of dry bread ensconsed in gelatinous fruit bits, the fruitcake has all but died out among my generation. But, maybe that could change? Baby, let me tell you, the fruitcake is back in [...]

So Delicious Creamer

January 13, 2010

In exploration of non-dairy creamers, I recently posted an article proclaiming Silk soy creamer as a truly delicious coffee cream alternative. And I stick by that proclamation. Only now, I must I must add that So Delicious Coconut creamer is also truly delicious (possibly even more delicious) and must be tried. Immediately. I warn you [...]

A little holiday cheer!

December 15, 2009

Nothing gets me in the spirit of the holidays like egg nog. This year, I decided to give Organic Valley egg nog a try in order to give a little extra support tolocal, organic dairy farmers. Besides, how good does this sound? What makes Organic Valley Eggnog so special? We start with farm-fresh organic milk [...]
