First off, I am not, nor do I pretend to be a baker (neither am I a butcher nor a candlestick maker :D). But this sure is good. Continue reading Peach Tart with Almond Cream Filling

Who doesn’t like pasta? Baby Lady & I love pasta and are thankful for whoever invented pasta and the faithful followers who have continued to improve upon it. There is a pasta for everyone and so many different shapes and sizes. You have Anelli (Rings), Capellini D’Angelo (Angel Hair Pasta), Fettuccine (Small Ribbons), Fusilli (Twisted Spaghetti), Linquine (Small Tongues), Rigatoni (Large Grooved Pasta), Spaghettini (Narrow Spaghetti), just to name a few.

One of the food magazines Baby Lady & I read is Saveur. I have a Zinio subscription which is delivered directly to my PC, my MacBook and my iPad.

I love the combination of citrus and seafood. It is a match made in heaven. Continue reading Red Snapper with Avocado and Basil Grapefruit Salad and Pine Nuts (Pignoli)

Baby Lady says this is such a pretty dish. She’s right. It is. This is another one of the recipes from the Blue Tomato. If you like large appetizers, this fits the bill. Personally, we think of it as a perfect lunch. Baby Lady loves the tomato ceviche sauce that accompanies this dish. The flavors are in perfect balance. P-H-E-N-O-M-I-N-A-L!!!
