I am all about smoothie recipes in the summer months.  Smoothies for breakfast, smoothies for afternoon snacks, smoothies for dessert, I’ll take it.  And a Matcha Smoothie?  Even better.

Degustabox July

Degustabox July

The July Degustabox was all about BBQ!  And if you’ve read any kinda deep into our blog, you know that BBQ is our jam.  I think this box had each of our hearts in a different way. Me (Sarah):  My absolute favorite candy in the whole world is Goetze Caramel Creams.  I had NO IDEA they came in other flavors. …

Chicken Tostada Recipe

When you have had one too many tacos, a tostado is the answer.  Although, I’m not actually sure how you can have too many tacos.  That seems silly.  But the tostada hits all the taco notes, can be eaten sitting down at the table with actual utensils like a proper civilized human being, can be customized with your favorite toppings…

Meats and Cheeses | The Perfect Party Appetizer Platter

I’m a big fan of the appetizer.  Give me a small bite of all the things and I’m a happy girl.  I’m also a big fan of the cured meats.  And the cheeses.  So give me the meats and cheeses please. And when you have a husband who is a genius at the flavor combos, you get me doing a…

Asian-inspired grill | Vegetable and Beef Kebab recipe

Who doesn’t love a good kebab from the grill in the summer?  We are huge grillers.  As soon as it’s relatively warm outside, we use the grill for most of our dinner.  And eating outside in the summer is another favorite.  Dave whipped up this vegetable and beef kebab recipe last night and it was a huge hit with everyone! …
