I hate to say it… but I’m once again underwhelmed by yet another Starbucks drink. The Iced Brown Sugar Shaken Espresso is a new addition to the Starbucks line up (as of March 2021) as an expansion into the non-dairy drink space. It’s made with Starbucks Blonde Espresso which is shaken with brown sugar syrup, cinnamon, and ice and then topped with oat milk. To be honest, Starbucks coffee tastes like burnt espresso to me....

How to Cut Spaghetti Squash I like to use a sharp knife to slice this hard squash in half lengthwise. Typically my knife gets “stuck” in the hard shell, so when that happens I’ll lift the squash by the knife handle and then hit it on the cutting board, so that the knife will continue the cut through the shell. Once you get most of the shell cut, the rest of the shell can be split in half by pulling the halves apart with your hands....

It’s time for shots! I’m a member of the population who genuinely hates taking shots. They make the hair stand up on the back of my neck, that uncontrollable wretch. Just not my cup of tea. These, on the other hand, just taste like dessert. The alcohol is completely hidden! And they sure do bring up memories from my college days. I may have had a few back then. That being said, make sure to enjoy these with caution....
I’ve always been on a mission to change the stigma surrounding one of my favorite dinners: the casserole. You may be picturing a plate full of slop, flavorless and bland. I’m telling you, that’s not the way it has to be! Every time I concoct a casserole I make sure it’s filling, easy, and, above all, delicious.

Easy Mandazi Recipe I’ve been really sick this weekend with a sore throat and the last thing I wanted to do is cook. But I was in the mood for some donuts. 🙂 I wanted something different though, and surfing through the web I came across this African donuts recipe. I was delighted.

It wasn’t until I started cooking for myself did I learned about the beauty of maple-glazed brussels sprouts. Then again, I’ll always meet people who flat out refuse the sprouts, even when they’re glazed or tossed with some bacon. It’s ok, I understand. I know that many of you have seen recipes for roasted brussels sprouts with bacon, but I have a confession. I don’t particularly like bacon. I’ll eat it if it is served to me, but you won’t find me going out of my way to make it....
