Las Vegas

Happy Friday!

I just came back from a short vacation to Las Vegas, Nevada. It was a 3 night and 4 day trip. Like any other trip, I checked the forecast for the weekend to help me pack...the average highs were in the 100F!!! I was floored because I had gone around the same time of the year before and it was much cooler.

I just wanted to share with you some parts of my vacation...warning, there will be lots of food pictures!!

June's BarkBox

Happy Wednesday!

I received my BarkBox last week. Honestly, I forgot about it completely. Surprises can be fun (sometimes)! This month's theme seems to be summer BBQ. Let's check it out!

Mango Salsa

Happy Monday!

Mango season is here and our mango trees are working over time! Although only half the trees are producing fruit this year, we are not in short supply. Mango is one of my most favorite fruits. It's fragrant and sweet. After a rinse and a couple of cuts, you get into the fruit. The meat is firm, but tender so you don't have to over work your jaws. And more importantly, it's nutritious! Before I share my Mango Salsa recipe with you, let me tell you a little more about mangoes!
