Drink Recipes

There is nothing quite like sipping a small, ice-cold glass of homemade limoncello after a delicious dinner on a summer evening. Friends of ours initiated us into this custom, and I have to say, it’s my new favorite summer tradition. I love drinking a digestif in lieu of dessert — it satisfies your sweet tooth without adding too...

Mother’s Day is this weekend, can you believe it? I know that people tend to go out to eat on Mother’s Day, but I think I’ve hosted Mother’s Day dinner more often than I’ve gone out. We already go out to eat after church most Sundays, so it almost feels more festive to stay home,...

Hi! Colleen here today with some really good news… Tomorrow is National Margarita Day…Woot!! That means it’s almost against the law to not have at least one margarita! Did you know that there’s a website devoted to celebrating National Margarita Day on February 22nd every year? They actually have over 10K Facebook followers that will globally be having a...

Hi, it’s Colleen, Jo-Lynne’s recipe contributor, back today with what I hope is a New Years Resolution for 2015 that will stick with me this time and maybe inspire a healthier you!

I know, I’m a little bit late to the party, but I just discovered the wonder that is the Peppermint Mocha Latte. I was at Target a few weeks before Christmas, and I stopped into the Starbucks at the front of the store, prepared to order my usual favorite treat — a mocha latte. While I...

You can make a savory...

You know me, I love a good cocktail. But there’s something about holiday cocktails that I’m absolutely obsessed with. They are just so pretty and they photograph so beautifully. And let’s face it. Every holiday party is a bit more festive with a signature holiday cocktail. I have a few holiday cocktail recipes here on my...

Where were clementines when I was a kid? I can’t really remember them, and then all of a sudden 5 or so years ago they started showing up in crates or mesh bags. One taste was all it took for me, and now I’m always on the lookout for them as soon as their season starts… I...

There is nothing that says Christmas quite like a frothy glass of eggnog. I posted this homemade eggnog recipe years ago, but I just updated the pictures (thank you, Colleen!!) and I figured this is the perfect time to republish it. I often make it (alcohol-free, of course!) for my kids’ breakfast. I use organic whole...

Catering to guests over the holiday season can become tricky with the number of people who have food allergies and are cutting certain ingredients out of their diets. It’s Tonya here with a simple DIY Pumpkin Spice Coffee Creamer Recipe that is the perfect addition to your Thanksgiving dinner party. The best part is, it can...
