Margaritas

margaritas!

It's Friday! And you know what this calls for... Margaritas!

These margaritas are absolutely delicious and you best believe me because I do not lie about margaritas. These are very quick and easy to make, going from blender to mouth in less than five minutes. Best served with chips and salsa, summer fruits, and more margaritas.

limes, chips, and salsa

So give a toast to the end the week! To the summer heat, good health, and, most importantly, tequila!

Tapioca Pudding

Tapioca Pudding

To me, tapioca pudding is a comfort food. The flavors are simple, the texture is interesting, and it goes just as well served hot on cold winter nights as it does served cool on warm summer afternoons.

Tapioca pudding is versatile. Anything from berries to bittersweet chocolate can be added for a unique flavor. I chose to make the traditional vanilla to give myself (and you) a base to build from. Though, like me, you might just find that the pudding has mysteriously disappeared before you have a chance to experiment.

Twix Cookies

Twix Cookies

My favorite candy bar has long been the Twix. The crunchy cookie, the ooey gooey caramel, and the melt-on-your-hands-and-in-your-mouth chocolate has made itself a home in my heart. And so, when I saw these cookies for the first time, I knew I had to make them. Pronto.

The shortbread cookie is phenomenal. It has a wonderful salt/sugar combination and is just the right texture. It converted me from an "I like shortbread on occasion" to an "I love shortbread, feed me moooore" kind of girl. The shortbread could easily stand alone, but when combined with the chocolate and caramel? Let me just say you will no longer be buying Twix bars from the supermarket.
