Orange Cinnamon Honey Fig JamFor something a bit flowery and highly aromatic, the combination of figs with cinnamon, honey, and orange fills the bill. This delightful jam is wonderful drizzled on all sorts of desserts - pound cake, ice cream - right down to a simple piece of toast. Slow cooked and easy to make, this treat is perfect for guests or gifts. |

When The Going Gets Tough The Tough Get Cozy. A Warm Desserty For A Cold Spring NightYesterday we were bouncing around in that weird mix of rain/sun/clouds/shadow/wind that comes to Sonoma at this time of year.

Bulgarian MakitziThe makitzi that my mother-in-law makes are from her hometown of Berkovitza. She describes the recipe as very basic, so you can add any filler to the dough.

Perfect French Side SaladThis is a simple tasting but wonderful side salad. The ingredients listed are not that easy to find, but you should feel free to substitute other lettuces and herbs that are available. The green beans are important though...so include them if you can. And the dressing is a must. Mix and enjoy! |
