Taste Treats

My current foodie obsession is Greek yogurt. This dairy delicacy is the consistency of ricotta, sumptuously smooth, and decadently rich. Though on the tart side, add a bit of fresh fruit (mango and strawberries are my fave) or a drizzle of honey and you have yourself a healthilicious treat.Photo by moi.

Things I Learned from Nigella

While Ina, Giada and Julia are my stateside culinary heroes, my favorite cooking Brit is without a doubt Nigella Lawson (sorry Jamie and Gordon). She could be serving canned beanie weenies and I'd watch with zeal.
