Two years in business and it’s been an incredible journey thus far. I’ve met so many people, I have been able to inspire, be introduced to local agriculture, produce many smiles, and contribute to happy bellies! Along the way I’ve learned so many lessons. Thought I would share a few today……
Sweet Recipe: Banana Foster Parfaits
I was a faithful fan of Chef Emeril Lagasse’s live show on Food Network years ago. One day he made this delicious dessert that’s native to Louisiana with the most simple ingredients.
I thought to myself, I would definitely make this dessert in the near future. Then that’s when Emeril lit the dessert aflame and my plan to make the dessert in the near future was quickly set on the mental back burner, I was terrified! I was new to marriage, and while I wasn’t new to cooking, I surely didn’t want my husband to come home from work to a burned down kitchen. However, I was still very intrigued by the dramatics, and the live audience reaction was electrifying.

Strawberry Mango Fruit Snacks
Anyone else still holding on to their new year resolution to eat healthier in 2016? Well, I’m desperately trying to stay strong. While I will treat myself every now and then, I want something sweet and healthy that I can make here in my kitchen.
So I decided on homemade all natural fruit snacks. They’re so good…and really easy to make however, a tad bit time consuming. They have to be cooked in the oven at 170°F for about 8-9 hours. It’s totally worth the time. There is nothing like real fruit snacks. The flavor is second to none. Here are my super complicated elaborate ingredients: strawberries, mango, and honey. That’s it…that’s all!

Dear Lord,
Why, oh why did this evil drop into my spirit. I’m just going to go ahead and admit I’m not even right for posting this deliciousness. Two of my favorite things in one amazing dessert. *sigh*

Bitter & Blanc Bread Pudding
The first time I had this delectable dessert was on a cruise ship. Let’s just say it was love at first taste. I knew I could…no…had to duplicate the recipe as soon as we returned from our vacation.
This is one of my favorites and I’m happy to share my recipe with all my Sweeties! I promise it’s not a challenging recipe…there is one step where it would be nice if you had an extra set of hands…but after that, it’s smooth sailing…in a pool of chocolate sauce! YUM!
