Shrimp ceviche

posted by: Vicki

Instead of par-cooking shrimp and then leaving it in the lime & lemon juices for an hour, can I just clean the shrimp & put them in the lime/lemon juices overnight? And, any recipe suggestions? Thanks.

Fondue Ahead

I was wondering if it would be alright for me to make a white chocolate fondue and then take it to a hotel room and then put it into a fondue pot.

    I love nothing more than to roll out of bed late on a Sunday and pull everything out of the fridge while the coffee is brewing. And usually, looking at what’s available, I find just enough fresh looking items to create a “frittata” from my random items and the eggs, cheese, and herbs I always have on hand. With Mother’s Day brunch on my mind, I thought to share some tips—How To Make a Perfect Frittata.
