Saturday we continued with our chocolate binge with Mint Chocolate Smoothies. We took our little guy out to a pumpkin patch and autumn under the California sun just isn’t the same as your typical fall visit to the pumpkin patch. It must have been in the eighties out there. Some cool minty smoothies hit the…
Friday was time for some fun. InterCourses includes S’mores as one of the recipes. Late in the evening we settled down to gram crackers, chocolate, and hot toasted marshmallows. We set it all up on the coffee table with a few tealights and enjoyed ourselves while we watched a movie. It was fun, we felt…

Saturday night we had a hearty home style meal of macaroni and cheese that was ever so elegant. I served Chipotle Mac from InterCourses. This is one heat packed dish, but so simple to make. Once again I discovered simple ingredients that are combined together to pack a punch with flavor. Process The method is…
