Fabulous Finishing Fridays

For the past week or two I’ve been feeling somewhat under the weather.  I haven’t felt ill per se, just not myself. The over-analyzer in me has been racking my brain, questioning my soul, and seeking answers as to why I’ve been feeling this way.  The answer, though, has nothing to do with analysis, and…

Guest Post: Pistachio and Fig Panna Cotta

I am incredibly honored to host one of my best “blogging buddies” today for a guest post.  A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to post for her, and now she has reciprocated.  The more I learn about Naz, the more I discover commonalities and traits that we share ~ and the more I…

Better Butter Chicken

Alisa told me this was one of her favorites and that I would love it.  Oh boy was she right!  This was fantastic! In fact, the aroma wafting through the house was so darn amazing that I simply chose not to take the time to photograph (that seems to be happening a lot these days)….
