Entertaining with :: Haylie Duff

Haylie Duff is a girl who seems to have it all… yet somehow manages to stay completely down to earth, unpretentious and downright fun. She’s already a triple threat talent (actress, musician and food blogger) and now she’s just added the title of “cookbook author” to her resume with the recent publication of The Real […]

Pumpkin & Gingersnap Pie

Are you more of a pumpkin, pecan or apple pie kinda gal? (and yes, “all of the above” is a totally acceptable answer.) Although I wouldn’t pass up any of them if offered, pumpkin pie (which to me is the pure essence of fall) is probably my most eagerly anticipated item on the Thanksgiving menu. And […]

13 Best Thanksgiving Turkey Recipes

Tequila-Lime Fish Tacos

These days I do most of my […]

10 Best Springtime Tables

Has anyone had the pleasure of enjoying a leisurely, sun-soaked outdoor meal yet? I have to admit, though there are countless things I love about spring, I most look forward to relaxed backyard meals and opting for “outdoor” instead of “in” at the hostess podium. The weather is a bit murky today, but I’m still […]
