Salted Caramel Butterscotch Brownies #FWCon

Fudgy, gooey, chocolatey brownies filled to the brim with butterscotch chips and topped with homemade salted caramel sauce. Have I grabbed your attention? These are the BEST brownies I’ve ever made. I’ve made some pretty good ones, but these? These totally surpass everything else. I mean, homemade salted caramel sauce says it all, doesn’t it? After making […]

Ten Recipes Perfect for Memorial Day

Happy Memorial Day! This weekend marks the official start of summer — even though here in Florida it always feels like summer. For all of you who don’t live in Florida, I bet you’re excited to pack up your sweaters and boots and break out the sundresses and flip flops! I’ve always spent Memorial Day on the beach, lathered […]

What I Learned at BlogHer Food

BlogHer Food was full of mind-blowing information, especially for someone like me who really doesn’t get the business-end of things. I’m eager to learn, though. I want to know how to work with all the brands I love, I want to monetize through ad networks, I want to increase my reach and understand the analytics behind all of […]

Food Bloggers Invade Miami! BlogHer Food Recap Part 2

Saturday was another day of seminars and breakout sessions, but this time we had time in the afternoon to go out and explore. A shuttle was provided to take us down to a new downtown area called Mary Brickell Village, so a group of us took advantage of the free ride and found a cute little […]

Food Bloggers Invade Miami! Recap of BlogHer Food Part 1

I’m finally ready to sit down and tell you all about BlogHer Food..  Words cannot describe how motivated I felt when I got home from Miami. I spent four days with bloggers I have been following since I started, women I admire and go to for recipe ideas, advice, and when I want to salivate over […]

Miami Restaurant Review: Perfecto

When you go out to eat with people, do you prefer ordering an entree for yourself or do you like to order a bunch of different appetizers and taste a bit of everything? I’m the latter. Most of the time, I don’t like one-note meals. I like to sample a variety of food, tapas-style. When […]

Greek Quinoa Salad with Garlic-Arugula Pesto

This Greek Quinoa Salad is the perfect summer dish — you should always have good outdoor-friendly recipes for beach picnics, poolside parties, boat excursions, and any other sun-induced activities. Last month, I experienced my first Boca Bash — a huge party out on Lake Boca, where you will find just about anyone who has a boat or […]

Delray Restaurant Review: Denise’s Foodie Event at DIG Delray

NOTE: This restaurant has since closed. I am decompressing from the past weekend spent in Miami at BlogHer Food. I’m still on such a high from the whole thing I can’t even bring myself to give you a recap yet, but I promise by the end of the week I’ll tell you all about the […]

Excuse me while I take a break from posting to enjoy a nice long weekend in Miami for BlogHer Food ’14! This is my first time going to BlogHer Food and I couldn’t be more excited. So many amazing bloggers will be there, some of whom I have met in person before, but mostly those […]

NJ Restaurant Review: Mambo Cafe

South Florida does well with its variety of cuisine, especially when it comes to Latin-influenced restaurants. Cuban, Colombian, Peruvian — there are some really amazing restaurants down here. When my mom told me about a new Colombian restaurant that opened, I was a little skeptical. Colombian in South Jersey? Now that’s something new. But she insisted […]
