I have had at least four versions of this appetizer. Some had sauces, others had different cheeses, but this one has goat cheese because “Pig Dates a Bleu Cheese Crumble” doesn’t have quite the same ring. It’s delicious and easy and will definitely be the first thing to go at your gathering. You will need…

An over the top birthday cake, for an over the top friend… The Lavender Honey Lemon Meringue Cake.
As you may have read, my best friend’s 40th birthday would have been last Saturday, 7/11. Her too short life, ended at 38 but I’m certain that she would have wanted those left behind to celebrate. I know her family and friends had a party back home. They ate good food and drank good drinks……

Sweet Summer Centerpiece: A table scape too easy not to do!
On my way through the grocery, I saw these vibrant daisies. They were dyed and ridiculously unnatural in color. These were the kinds of cheap flowers that I would have previously mocked. Cosmo said “Get these, mom! They’re cool!”. I chuckled a little and said that they were kind of cheesy, and reached for an…
