Bomb Pop Shots - The Kitchen Whisperer

Bomb Pop Shots - The Kitchen Whisperer
Growing up my all time FAVORITE frozen treat were Bomb Pops! Those ‘rocket’ shaped Popsicles that were blue raspberry on the bottom, lemon in the middle and cherry on top. And I’m sure by now you all know what I did with the cherry portion. Yep, you guessed it! I cut or broke that section off. Well when I turned 21 I discovered Bomb Pop Shots. So whether you’re celebrating the 4th of July, Memorial Day, Labor Day or Tuesday, enjoy but please drink responsibly and never drink and drive!

Getting ready for Cinco de fucking Mayo? It's one... Getting ready for Cinco de fucking Mayo? It’s one of my favorite holidays for bad decisions. This year you might make a couple shitty judgment calls but don’t start with your margarita mix. You see how many goddamn ingredients are in those fuckers? ¾ cup tequila (optional, but who are you kidding?) ¾ cup grapefruit juice (about 1 grapefruit) ¼ cup lime juice (about 3 limes) 1 cup frozen strawberries (whole strawberries are really fucking hard to measure. 1 ½ cups ice Blend that shit up. If your fruit wasn’t super sweet you might need to add a little something extra like a teaspoon or two of whateverthefuck sweetener you like to use is fine. Make about 32 ounces, enough to relax 2 people

How To Be An Ethical Carnivore What do you mean You People? Kidding, I agree with you. You people don't understand they difference between personification and reality. Right. The author was being self-righteous. If you read the article thoroughly, perhaps you'd have made a different inference. What is your PETA position on animals that cant survive without human assistance. Wow. Way to focus on the first few paragraphs of the article and blow it completely out of proportion. Your second paragraph is ridiculous, you are aware the the modern cow as we know it today, has been selectively bred to be these oversized, innefective, freaks of nature? I'm always happy to give scientific, factual answers to the myths surrounding eating meat. Eating vege is not "unbalanced and unhealthy" when done correctly, how many omnivores do you know that you would consider to be eating an unhealthy/unbalanced diet? Man.

Lemon-Vodka Cream Pops Using a vegetable peeler, remove all of the zest from 3 of the lemons in 3- to 4-inch-long strips. Set the lemons aside. Combine the lemon zest, cream, milk, sugar, and salt in a large saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar, about 5 minutes. Squeeze 2/3 cup juice from the reserved lemons (juice the fourth lemon, if necessary). Strain the mixture through a fine sieve into a 4-cup glass measure (or any container with a spout for easy pouring), pressing on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible. The pops can be frozen for up to 3 days. nutrition information (per serving): Calories (kcal): 180; Fat (g): 12; Fat Calories (kcal): 110; Saturated Fat (g): 7; Protein (g): 2; Monounsaturated Fat (g): 3.5; Carbohydrates (g): 17; Polyunsaturated Fat (g): 0; Sodium (mg): 60; Cholesterol (mg): 45; Fiber (g): 0;

How To Choose The Healthiest Drinks Infographic Researchers have used prospectively obtained data from 105,986 women in a comprehensive study to evaluate the moderate consumption of alcohol and breast cancer risk association. A large amount of observational research has revealed that women who consume alcohol have an increased risk of breast cancer. The relation appears to be generally stronger for those women who binge drink, are also using post-menopausal hormonal therapy, or/and have low dietary folate intake. A modest increase in breast cancer risk was found to in women who consume alcohol in this study, even those women whose total consumption of alcohol was in the range of 3 – 6 drinks a week. A failure to report on the impact of diet and folate intake on the alcohol and risk of breast cancer association was a weakness in the study.

A Different Kind of Smoothie I sat down with a precious girlfriend for lunch at Fiddlecakes the other day and she told me about green smoothies. Huh? It was a smoothie, but was packed with greens such as spinach and kale, fruit, and sometimes even protein powder. Well, since trying one (which I was a bit nervous about, I’ll admit) I’ve been hooked and have really noticed a difference in my energy. There are a TON of variations for these things, but here is what I’ve been drinking for the last week. 1.) 2.) 3.) 4.) 5.) 6.) 7.) 8.)

Beefeater The Ultimate Strawberry Lemonade One of the first times I ever realized that – HEY! I can cook for myself! – was when I first learned to make lemonade. I magically found the refrigerated lemon juice at our house and followed the directions to make my own lemonade. Sorry for the detour. Anyway, there was a summer there where I made my own lemonade every single day, making sure to rub it in my sister’s face that I knew how to and she didn’t. The key to this being the ultimate lemonade is that you blend it up with the lemon rind in there. And any time of day for that matter. (makes 2 pint-glass servings with ice) 3/4 cup sugar2 large lemons, microwaved for 30 seconds2 cups water1 cup of frozen strawberries, microwaved for 1 minute (you could use fresh, but I think the frozen works better here) In a blender squeeze the lemons and add the rest of the lemon, rind and all. **Note: I like to microwave the lemons to release more of the juices, and microwaving the strawberries does the same sort of thing.

Vive les bistrots! Depuis le début du siècle, les plus grands chefs de l’Hexagone, les étoilés prestigieux, investissent comme jamais dans des restaurants simples aux additions raisonnables où le potage du jour, le sandwich jambon-beurre, la salade aux lardons, la blanquette de veau, la mousse au chocolat ont remplacé le caviar, le homard au curry, les saint-jacques aux truffes noires, le risotto aux truffes blanches, le bar de ligne en croûte de sel et le soufflé à la vanille de Tahiti. En un mot, la haute cuisine est-elle battue en brèche, déboulonnée par l’élite des gros bonnets en mal de plats basiques? Le développement fulgurant des bistrots –400 testés à Paris par le Guide Lebey 2013– est-il de nature à freiner la création d’établissements trois étoiles? Quels chefs de prestige, reconnus, célébrés par le Michelin ont ouvert des restaurants de classe internationale à Paris, rivaux de l’Arpège, de Guy Savoy, de l’Ambroisie, du Véfour, de l’Astrance? publicité Brunch à l'Auberge de Flora Crom'Exquis
