I'm addicted to the Passion Fruit Mojito from The Cheesecake Factory. So refreshing! My favorite used to be the Matcha Mojito. Now it's been replaced by the Passion Fruit one. I don't want just a glass, I want a jug of it! Seeing that I have mints growing wild in my backyard and several passion fruits in my fruit bowl, I decided to make it myself at home. Well, it wasn't bad, but it wasn't as good as the restaurant’s either. For one thing, the passion fruits had been left too long in ... continue reading...

Fiesta Friday #495
Inspired by my vegan wannabe daughter, I've been eating a lot more plant-based foods recently. Some of the things I tried are pretty good actually. Namely, this vegan burger. And this vegan wrap. And these vegan "meat"balls. Am I becoming vegan? No. We went to a Korean restaurant yesterday and I had a Dolsot Bulgogi, so obviously I still eat meat. But less than before, I suppose.

I just have to show you my plants, you guys! Especially my herbs. And also the chili peppers. Don't they look amazing?

My big salad platter is getting a lot of use these days, in and outdoors. This was last night's dinner. When the weather is too hot... or you're still recovering from an illness... and the idea of cooking is too much, a salad platter is the only way to go. All you have to do is slice some fresh vegetables, boil a few potatoes and eggs, and open a jar of olives... and right there, you have dinner ready! I can practically eat this way for days. But for the sake of the family, I try to vary ... continue reading...
Fiesta Friday #492
In the aftermath of our back-to-back trips to Madrid and California, I'm feeling exhausted and my husband is sick. I'm pretty sure the 100+ degree heat had a lot to do with it. That's how hot it was in some places in California the week we were there. But we did have a lot of fun, and it was gratifying to see friends and family we hadn’t seen in so many years. And what about the food you ate, Angie?! What about the food?! Yes, I can hear you 😂 Well, my foodie fiesta friends... I had Menudo ... continue reading...
