Chocolate Orange Madeleine Demo | Bite Sized Travel Treats!


IMG_3115
You have got to try out this recipe for the upcoming holidays!

Whether you’re jetting off to the airport or embarking on a road trip, it’s always a welcome idea to tuck away a little comfort food and not always be at the mercy of the concession stands.  After all, traveling can be hectic and a little comfort goes a long way…especially during the holiday season.

When I think bite sized travel treats, this can be anything from bringing home sample sized foodie souvenirs, to picking up small nibbles for your hotel room, to tossing a goodie into your tote.  The options are endless… 

Are you familiar with Food52.com? Take a sec to explore – it’s a great community based/community created food website!  Stuck with a random ingredient you’re trying to use up?  

One of my favorite features is entering an ingredient into their search function, like “Pomegranate” and choosing “in recipes.”  Results pop up showing everything in their catalog that includes pomegranates in their recipes.  From there you can narrow it down to appetizers, salads, desserts, and so on to hone in on what type of dish you’re creating.

Morning Guys!

This is how I’m coping with Daylight Savings Time… 😜⏰

They’re fresh & hot out if the oven. Want one?

Now that I’m up super early I should tackle more editing. iMovie is amazing, but it’s been taking me ages to sort through all of the customization options & content is stacking up! Talk about a learning curve…

Hope you’re enjoying your weekend,

Exploring Maine!


York, Maine

Having an amazing time on the East Coast!

Yesterday I was lucky enough to be taken for a motorcycle ride and explore a slice of Southern Maine.  Quaint towns oozed charm.  Fresh air and lush green grass are a far cry from Los Angeles.

A Cheese-Lover’s Tour of Paris by Taylor Ritchie (Guest Contributor)


The Eiffel Tower, the River Seine, the Champs-Elysees–these are mere details placed to ornament the real heart of Paris–cheese! Like the moon, Paris is made entirely of cheese for the true cheese connoisseur and my tour of the City of Cheese uncovered delectable morsels of Comte and untold lunches of baked potatoes covered in creamy Reblochon. If you love fromage as much as I do, you’ll discover that Paris is truly the ideal destination for cheese-lovers.
