Southern panache for your life
FINALLY, my exhaustive ice cream trials have yielded the smoothest, creamiest, homemade ice cream. Okay, maybe exhaustive is a little bit of a stretch but after 4 rounds of grainy, large ice crystal ice cream production, I was starting to get a little discouraged. How come I couldn’t make super creamy ice cream? Was my
I didn’t intend for these muffins to be dairy-free. Honest. I have whole milk and unsalted butter in my fridge right now. I also had almond-milk based yogurt and light oat milk in the fridge and figured, heck, if anyone were to make a flavorful and chewy-almost-good-for-you-blueberry-muffin, it might as well be me.

This is summer. A frozen cocktail that doesn’t taste like a cocktail in a short glass, with a paper straw and 85°F weather looming on the horizon. It’s just begging you to kick your shoes off and sit with it all afternoon long. Or at least for the next hour because that’s how long it will

Let this be known at the garden cocktail trials! Last week it was the Strawbarb Margarita (featuring mint plucked right from my patio plant) and this week features a thyme and blackberry filled fizzy lemonade gin cocktail which, thanks to @beatriceuber gets the name “The FizzleBerry”!
