A taste of summer, they look yummy
I love scones and these look really good.
For years I was challenged when it came to making biscuits or scones then I found this recipe on Food52. These scones are absolutely delicious, no one and I mean no one makes scones like my friend Liz Larkin, the Scone Lady of Pound Ridge. I adapted her brilliant recipe for Royal Wedding Scones, using cranberry and orange rather than blueberries. These scone are light, fluffy, moist and delicious and were perfect with some homemade devon cream (because I can’t find it anywhere I made it) and some of the mixed citrus curd. Some of these scones are for my British (Welsh) friend David Prosser/Barsetshire Diaries, who never fails to entertain and amuse with his lovely blog posts every week. I hope you like scones David because I made some for you.
As long as I was making scones, for the Tea Room and for David, I thought it would be…

That looks good and the recipe looks easy too, very much a plus.
I had the opportunity of meeting the mom of one of my dearest friends for the first time back in 2014. She flew from Texas to New York to visit her son Richard and his husband Garrett for the first time since they married that Summer. She spent Thanksgiving with them and to our delight, she accompanied her son and his husband to our Friendsgiving celebration that following Saturday evening.
It was the first and only Thanksgiving my husband and I celebrated in Fairfield, Connecticut before we sold our house and moved down here to Miami Beach. That holiday, my husband manned the kitchen, producing a southern feast for 30 that rivaled any dinner I had ever eaten, while I tapped into a hidden love and happily played bartender.
Knowing that my friend’s mom was coming to our house for the very first time, I wanted to welcome her with…

Awesome!!
The holiday season has come to an end, and as much as I will miss the smell of pine and the strings of glowing lights, there is one thing I am looking forward to leaving behind — all of the calories!
So much effort is put forth by many of us during the year to get to a point where we feel good about ourselves. Unfortunately, it is usually during the holiday season that a good portion of what we’ve done to get healthy is undone by the mounds of food we inevitably eat.
So what do we do about it?
Resuming our trips to the gym AND eating better than we have been is a hard pair of actions to tackle simultaneously, especially if we’ve abandoned both routines. While working out takes a lot of physical effort, cooking a healthy meal is on the opposite end of the spectrum…

I am glad you gathered your courage and moved forward, Your blog is wonderful
This week I am taking you all on a little trip down memory lane, I am re visiting a few of my first posts. I actually posted twice on that first day. The first a mere paragraph saying I had no idea what I was doing and would try to get this blog up and running. It is embarrassing a little to read it but also saddens me because my pugs were alive when I started this blog. When I figured it out I posted this recipe which I had already posted on Food52 for mixed citrus curd. I have not made this recipe since I first posted it in January 2012 and I am using tangerines, cara cara oranges and lemon. This would be good with any citrus you like, the flavor of the mixture of different types is delicious.
I was so nervous starting this blog, what if…
