Left over cookies bought from a bakery. No way would I have time to bake today.
Gold rimmed bowls $38 for the both of them from Home Goods. Couldn’t pass that up 🙂 -

Thinkr's Food & Spirits 3 years, 3 months agoI’ve not made this yet or even tried it…but I was watching the Scandinavian Chef on PBS a while back and he made Glogg. His version of it looked so much better but I can not find the video.
I plan on making it while I am here at my parents house. The weather is getting cold and my mom loves her glass of red wine…[Read more]

Thinkr's Food & Spirits 3 years, 3 months agoAlright…alright.
I was looking for a video recipe for Glogg when I ran across this.
I figured why not start the topic off with something a little funny.I know most of us love international food so I figured why not create a space just for that.

2 cups chopped strawberries
1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion (more or less according to your taste)
2 tsp chopped basil
Juice of 2 limes (adjust…[Read more] -

Thinkr's Food & Spirits 3 years, 4 months agoLove your pictures.
I truly enjoy fresh baked bread…..I am getting better at making it. My problem is that I overwork the dough. But if I follow your recipe I just have to use my kitchenaide.
I think I am going to attempt this in a few days. I don’t think I can mess it up. -

Tonight we drove thru Boston Market and ordered the Prime Rib. I have to say I was soooo impressed. They make a sweet potato casserole with marshmallow that was horribly good.
Today….I don’t know what’s for dinner yet. I had grandiose plans of hitting the market early to buy ingredients for a soup I have been craving but I ended up watching a few episodes of an old show. And that made me lazy for a few hours. I will ponder dinner a bit more. Until I figure that out….I am gonna drive thru Strarbucks down the hill for a beverage
