Island Living
Growing up I love to eat Caribbean food. One of my favorite food to eat on the island is meat pattie. This summer my sister and her family traveled back to the islands and brought me back the best thing ever...an island cookbook pack with recipes of the foods I remember and love! It had receipes for ginger beer, coconut tart, johnny cake, pick-up saltfish and so much more, but the best thing of all was a receipe for meat pattie!!! Truthfully, I was a little intimidated at first, but at my husband's request I decided to make the patties. Well, check out my masterpiece...they were fantastic! I could not believe it, I was standing in my kitchen eating meat pattie and drinking ginger beer (talk about memories). I plan on sharing these receipes with you soon...Happy Thursday!

Overcooked Broccoli?
We've all done it...overcooked the broccoli, and who wants to eat that. Don't worry, help is on the way. If you've read my blog then you know how much I love the Food Network and one of my favorite host Paula Deen has a video showing how to turn overcooked broccoli into cream of broccoli soup (doesn't that sound good). When I looked at this video, I was amazed at how quick and easy she made that soup. I haven't try it yet, but I can't wait for my next bunch of overcooked broccoli. So try not to overcook the broccoli, but if you do try this quick fix.

My July Party

July 4th Bash
Send out invitiations. A great way to get to everyone in a short amount of time is by email. Let's face it who doesn't have an email account these days. Just make it short and sweet, but include all relevant information (BBQ, potluck, time/place). A July 4th BBQ potluck party is quick and easy to organize.
You can find quick summer recepies on the food network website. http://www.foodnetwork.com/ Have fun, eat well, ENJOY!
