(Above Video courtesy of Dole) Last month I had the opportunity to head out to Monterey, California to spend time with some key people from Dole Fresh Vegetables as part of the Dole Salad Bloggers Summit.

This giveaway is now closed. The winner of the Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker & eCreamery Gourmet Flavorings Pack is Richard H from FoodPhotoNYC.com. Congrats & thank you everyone for entering.

Convenience Store Living {Recipe: Homemade Twix Caramel Cookie Bars}
After the egg cream float, daycare days, we moved to the country. Well, it was 3 1/2 miles south of the tiny town I went to school in, but to a young girl, that was country. There was no Pizza Hut delivery. There were no friends just dropping in to see if I wanted to…
Alluring Cake Balls {Recipe: Thin Mint Chocolate Cake Balls}
I’ve heard the talk of them over the past couple of years… these little things called cake balls. As much as I love cake – I really, really love cake – the cake balls never really tempted me. I have been able to avoid cake balls, un-phased by their alluring pull all over the internet.
Morning Comfort {Recipe: Sour Cream Banana Pancakes}

Summertime Memories {Recipe: Old Fashioned Chocolate Egg Cream Float}
Summertime as a little kid was the best. My mom had an in-home daycare, so every day I had friends my age to play with. There were no video games, only 3 channels on TV – none which were interesting to a kid my age, huge shade trees in our backyard and lots of fun!…
On a Stick by Matt Armendariz {Recipe: Caramel Popcorn Balls)
I have what I would call a somewhat strange obsession with food trucks and fair food. We don’t have many food trucks in Kansas, unless you count the ice cream man, but fairs? Boy oh boy do we have fairs and from a young age, I have been fascinated by the food served at these…
Wendy’s Berry Almond Chicken Salad Gift Card Giveaway
This giveaway is now closed. The winner, Andrea G, has been notified. Thanks so much for participating! Last week I told my kids we were going on a picnic with some of my “co-workers” (that’s my fancy way of saying blog friends). You see, the folks at Wendy’s invited us to a picnic lunch with…
Almost Like Butterbeer from Harry Potter
I think I am one of the few people in the universe who has not read the Harry Potter series. Although I love to read, I have commitment issues when it comes to reading books, and a whole series is just more than my ADD attention span can handle.
