So I thought that a berry crumble would be the perfect way to celebrate this beautiful day. The smell and feel of Spring is FINALLY in the air. I’m sorry I missed everyone yesterday. I was SUPPOSED to write and blog about how delicious my blood mary soup came out. Well that bloody mary soup …

We’ve been on quite a duck kick lately. Not that I’m complaining. It’s just so freaking good. We can’t get enough of it. What’s so great about duck, is that it isn’t terribly expensive, so when we see it, we have to buy it. When we roast a duck, we usually incorporate it into a …

Yes, that’s right. Peanut. Butter. Truffles. Who doesn’t love a good truffle? They are the perfect little bite-sized treat to attack almost any and all of those sweet cravings. What was so surprising to me the first time I made them was how easy they were to make! Sure they require a little down time …
