It was the late ’90’s and I was tucked in my hotel bed at the beautiful Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas. My middle school self had been worn out by the sun and endless amounts of food. Around 2 am the door crashed open. I heard a scream, “I won! I won!”
Chocolate Whiskey Truffles
After school, I used to go up the neighborhood street to visit my friend, Kate. Her family made several delicious treats, such as fondue, chocolate-peanut butter pancakes and whiskey truffles. Since the first bite of their homemade whiskey truffles, I have been hooked! They are sweet, rich and have a little kick! Let’s be real – chocolate is great, cocktails are great. The combination of chocolate and alcohol together? Incredible! I’m so thankful she introduced me to them as they have become a favorite holiday staple.

Holiday Ice: Two Ways
Cheers to the holiday season! I am so excited for the merriest time of the year. From eggnog to sangria to hot chocolate with peppermint schnapps to rosemary gin cocktails, the holiday drink possibilities are endless! To add a little extra holiday flare, I made some ice cubes that bring a little more holly and jolly with each sip!
Kale and Blood Orange Salad
Every year after Thanksgiving, I find myself trying to find creative ways to eat the leftovers. Turkey soup, turkey sandwiches and turkey with BBQ sauce all go on rotation, in addition to the remaining side dishes. But between the leftovers, I try to mix in a few fresh and healthy meals and salads. This dish fits the bill!
