Recipe: Woman Crush Wednesday

Hello again and thanks for coming back for another episode of Woman Crush Wednesday. The best day of the week in my book!  Because another fabulous female foodie gets the love and we get a new recipe!  I am so excited to share today’s honoree with you.  Hubby and I watched Shelina Permalloo win Master Chef U.K. in 2012. We were still living in Dublin back then. Who knew we’d be living in the U.K. now ourselves!  Hopefully one day soon I can go to her restaurant Lakaz Maman in Southhampton for a Foodie Fieldtrip Friday! But first, I am going to recreate one of Shelina’s recipes on my Snapchat (username blissbakery) so come watch, or just continue reading for pics and more about this gorgeous gourmet gal!  Continue reading

Recipe: Woman Crush Wednesday

I realize that for some this whole Woman Crush Wednesday means something all together different than how I interpret it.  But to each his/her own.  For me this day is a chance to shine the light on a female chef creating some fabulousness in the culinary world. The truth is that even having to say “female” chef is indicative of the fact that when you hear the word chef you think of a man. While most of the Michelin star chefs are indeed men, I have taken this day to create a whole LOVE fest for a fabulous female foodie. I am excited to announce the 88th Woman Crush Wednesday honoree is the gorgeous gourmet gal Tess Ward!

Recipe: Head Banging Smoothie

I can’t believe it myself, but it is the last day of Smoothie Scentral Week.  That flew by didn’t it? I hope you have been inspired to up your smoothie game and try some of these or make up your own recipes. All you need is a blender and your fav bits and pieces to pop in there. It is healthy, it is fun and much more cost effective then frequenting your local smoothie juice bar. So for the final day, I had to share a banging smoothie! Since I also did a tutorial on my Snapchat account (username blissbakery) I had to have the perfect musical accompaniment. Which also inspired the name of this super delicious liquid awesomeness!

Recipe: Orangerageous Smoothie!

Bear with me on this but I have to share a knock knock joke that my granddaughter and I love…..

Knock, Knock. Who’s there? Banana. Banana who? Knock, Knock.  Who’s there? Banana. Banana who? Knock, knock. Who’s there? Orange. Orange who? Orange you glad I didn’t say banana?!

Since today’s Smoothie Scentral recipe has oranges and banana, it is safe to say, well this recipe is safe. I made it over on my Snapchat channel (my username is blissbakery if you’d like to come watch) and Hubby even go involved by taking over chief tasting duties. And he LOVED this smoothie!
