Sunsweet: Where Good Food Abounds
Happy Monday, lovelies. I never mention the day of the week in my posts, but it's that kind of day when I acknowledge the newness another week brings. It's another opportunity to wake up and grind it out. To chase our dreams and realize them all. I have t...

Honey French Roasted Beet, Pear, & Bleu Cheese Salad
After a brutal winter which I thoroughly enjoyed, even tho I missed two of the biggest snowfalls we had D.C. because of travel, I'm so glad spring is here. With bits of snow flurries in-between summer like days and lovely 60F days, there is no doubt spring i...

Easy Onion Dip
This quasi-refined onion dip is a far cry from Latin food, but I've noticed and embraced a shift in my cooking. Beyond Cuban and Latin fusion, I've spent a good portion of the last 3-4 years exploring a lot of other foods and cuisines in their purest form....

French Eating is Orgasmic with a Sexy Warm Fruit In Vino y Miel in Val de Loire
I'm such a lucky gal. Yup. Sure am. My parents rock and I'm so eternally grateful for them. They really are a girl's best friend. I work really hard so I can comfortably take care of them when the time comes (and pay them back, of course, for all their loans...

#FlanFriday: The Drink That Shouldn’t Have Been a Flan. Ever. Not Even Coffee.
So today is a weird day. The rain has me feeling blah. I'm completely sleep deprived over a super fab whirlwind trip to the west coast for 12 hours. The on-and-off and Winter in D.C. has me anxious, anticipating what my next outfit's going to be like. And to...

Cooking With Pictures
I can't remember the last time I shared my thoughts on a newly released cookbook with you. I used to be all about them until I calculated the amount of time I was spending too much time perusing a plethora of books, all to try recipes I may or may not like...

Roasted Red Pepper Hummus & Cheese Open Face Eggplant Sandwich & Other March Madness Snackables
Close to six years ago, I shared here a garlicky hummus recipe. Hardly believable I've been blogging that long, but as I look back, I laugh at the sheer awfulness of my pictures. Fortunately, my writing was witty (not sure what happened there) and straight t...

Chunky Garlic Basil Pesto
I swear by garlic. I live by garlic. I breath for garlic. Therefore, I am garlic. Well, sort of. At least I don't reek of it. But, man o man, or girl o girl, is it one of my top three favorite foods. Ever. After all, it's 1/3 of our Cuban holy trinity of c...

Lemon Pepper Chicken Wings w/Mango Habanero Sauce
Chicken is my friend. I love, love pollo. Nothing like an attractive whole chicken, roasted to perfection: juicy, tender, with a healthy-colored exterior. Yes, please. The bird is just so versatile, too. Though I've read more negative things about the edib...

Strawberry PoppySeed Glazed Roasted Garlic Brussels Sprouts
Hey friends! It's been two solid weeks since I've shown myself, but all for great reason. My travel season has finally started after a much needed 3-month break. It's been so delightful being idle at home, relishing in family moments and some intense desk ...
