I recently attended a theme party in St. Tropez like no other I’ve experienced. You know how I love parties with themes! This one was a double birthday bash for a fabulous lady and her son! She turned 50 and he turned 18! Thus… #18and50shadesofpink The party was an entire weekend extravaganza in St. Tropez, one […]
I moved my office this week. Moving is like sticking a sharp knife into your chest and twisting it no matter how organized you are. You know what I mean ?? After the move the pain slowly subsides. And of course moving forced me to purge and sift through files and files of paperwork and then ultimately throw […]
It’s full on summer… hot and sultry here in NYC. This heat reminds me of Texas but it wasn’t this humid in Wichita Falls; although I do remember plenty of days when the thermometer spiked to 100 and above. It’s on these hot summer days that I want something refreshing and bubbly to drink. One of my […]
When my mother entertained at our home in Wichita Falls, Texas she would really go all out. She made everything herself, including dessert. The one that I remember the most is an ice cream pie that has a crunchy graham cracker crust, 3-4 types of ice cream and sorbet and the best part was the […]
Wherever I travel outside the US, I always look forward to spending time at the farmers markets. Markets make me smile. They inspire me to cook and to learn about the ingredients and specialties of a specific country. It’s all about Flirting with Flavors! The food markets tell me what a culture is like, what people’s tastes […]
Honestly, I didn’t expect the food in Israel to be so good and fresh! Here are my 3 favorite restaurants in Israel! When we arrived, we drove to Caesarea and after seeing this fascinating Roman historical site, we were hungry. Aren’t I always hungry? We sat down and had the most delicious fresh seafood, langoustine, branzino, and […]
Before I visited Israel in April, I was content with eating store-bought hummus. It was so easy. You just head to the store, buy a container of the flavor you like, tear back the plastic wrapping and place it on a platter with pita or vegetables. My how things have changed! After experiencing a hummus […]
Israel has been on my bucket list for years for so many reasons. I’m Jewish. Both my parents were Jewish. My mother’s family was from Hungary and my father’s from Germany. I am blessed that both families came to the States before the Second World War and hence avoided the holocaust; but I’ve wanted to discover […]
Having survived my first brutal winter in NYC, in 1977, I remember being so relieved when the magnolia tree outside my window started blooming its deep pink blossoms. I was a single girl in NYC living in the West Village. I had very little money, and I was happy when I had a date for […]
You all know that I’m not much of a baker even though I love desserts. So when I make a dessert, it has to be easy! This Apple & Pear Crisp is just that. It takes very little time, is uncomplicated but tastes like a restaurant dessert. I never have received so many ‘oohs and ahhs’ from any dish […]
