in Food & DrinkIrresistible Fun Food: Mousse
What is mousse? To me, it’s glorious pudding! The English translation for the word mousse is “foam”. Are you thinking what I’m thinking? Yeah. It sounds better if you call it mousse. No surprise it’s a French dessert. There are some savory mousse recipes like chicken liver or vegetable. That doesn’t appeal to my taste […] More

in Food & DrinkIrresistible Fun Food: Bruschetta
I love to watch Italian cooking shows; especially Lidia Bastianich. Not only does she teach you how to cook Italian but she also throws in a few words to help you learn how to speak Italian. There are lots of similar TV shows and food blogs where I learn about preparing Italian recipes. But Lidia […] More

I publish a post series about “Irresistible Fun Foods”. This is sort of a “spin” on the idea. This post is about fun food tweets. Two things in life that can make me happy. A good cooking show or a fabulous food tweeter. Oh yeah! I’m easy. LOL. I like this guy because his tweets […] More

in Food & DrinkFood From Spain: Iberian Ham
In a previous post I shared some tantalizing tidbits about tapas, and would like to share even more. Did you know that a tapas sampler is likely to include extremely thin slices of Jamón ibérico or Iberian ham? Did you know that jamóni bérico and Italian prosciutto are not the same? Did you know that […] More

in Food & DrinkIrresistible Fun Food: Tapas
In plain English terms, one can describe “tapas” are Spanish appetizers. But that sounds boring, doesn’t it? The word “tapas” is so cute and so inviting. If your friends said: “Hey! Wanna go get some tapas!” Admit it. You’d go for it! I know that tapas originated in Spain. I know that you can probably […] More

in Food & DrinkIrresistible Fun Food: Sliders
When I was in my teens there were lots of fast-food restaurants around. But there was only one restaurant that I could go to, spend less than a dollar, and feast like a queen! The name of that restaurant was Royal Castle. The first restaurant opened in 1938 (about 20 years before I was born). […] More

in Food & DrinkIrresistible Fun Food: Slow Cooker Cheese Dips
A few years ago for a Christmas holiday, I was trying to buy myself a gift and wanted to purchase a small cooking appliance. That year Instant Pot was all the rage. But I couldn’t afford it. I settled for a slow cooker/crockpot because it was on sale. This memory dot can be connected to […] More

in Food & DrinkIrresistible Fun Food: Nachos
My first two posts in this series about irresistible fun food were Fritters and Empanadas. This post is about Nachos. If you don’t know what they are let me describe them. Take a large plate or platter and cover it with crispy corn tortilla chips (store-bought, choose your favorite brand, or do homemade). Cover the […] More
