Welcome back to Woman Crush Wednesday. It’s great having you here with me each week as I shower another gorgeous gourmet gal with some LOVE! It is a day to not only learn about all the fabulous females out there in the culinary world making their mark, but we also get a delicious recipe each week. Since this is the 67th WCW, that is a pretty hefty gastronomic arsenal! Continue reading
Welcome back to Woman Crush Wednesday! My favorite day of the week where I choose a female chef and recreate one of her recipes live on Snapchat. And of course this here is the LOVE story for our one and only gourmet gal! This week’s honoree is the best selling cookery book writer and world famous food blogger Deb Perelman. Her blog Smitten Kitchen has been the gold standard for food bloggers practically since its inception back in 2006. Her prolific posts of incredible sweet and savory foods have ignited flames in the hearts of home cooks from coast to coast! Continue reading
While everyone else I know is savoring some sunny weather, it is still chilly and grey here in London. The perfect hot coffee and sweet treat kind of day. Which fits perfectly with my Woman Crush Wednesday! Because I am going to be showering the amazing chef Bea Vo with some love, and baking her Chocolate Peanut Butter Biscotti. Continue reading
Cinco de Mayo (the 5th of May) is celebrated with more hoopla in the United States than in Mexico where the holiday began. Most confuse it with Mexican Independence Day, which is celebrated on September 16th.

Especially for someone like me who loves Mexican food, culture, and people! Continue reading
It is so nice to be back on track with my Woman Crush Wednesday series after a couple weeks break. It is the 60th time I have honored a female foodie with a love story here on the blog and a cooking tutorial on Snapchat. Since today is a special day we had to have a special culinary queen. And who better than Julia Child, the groundbreaking chef who is still posthumously inspiring millions of cooks! Continue reading
I’ve been under the weather the past few days and even missed my Woman Crush Wednesday cooking tutorial. The first time illness has gotten in the way of my fav day! But luckily today I had just enough energy to bake a banana loaf. And I decided to make it a “free from” variety. No sugar, eggs or dairy. Now it still has gluten, but there’s a reason why!

Happy Easter! Or as we jokingly call it “Happy-ster”. That’s because after moving to Ireland we called Hubby’s mom on Skype to wish her a Happy Easter. However, with the poor connection all she could hear was Happy –ster! Since we will hopefully be climbing Croagh Patrick this weekend I am sure that at the top of the Holy Mountain in the West of Ireland, it’s likely we won’t have the best connection either. So unless you hear from me, this will be your official holiday greeting! Continue reading
