Strawberry Limeade Slushies
Who's sick of hearing about Passover food yet? Bad news friends. Passover isn't for another WEEK and then it goes on for a full week. So there's gonna be a bunch more Passover talk around here.

But I'm weird like this. And the things I miss most over Passover aren't the specifically non-kosher-for-Passover foods like those mentioned above. What I miss (especially considering my family's stricter customs) are some of the little conveniences. Things like soda (nope, we don't drink that on Passover). Things … [Read more...]

Well, I wouldn't quite equate this with turning moldy bread into penicillin, but it was a pretty lucky- and awesome- discovery. It started on a day like today, when it felt like it was a million degrees outside, but in actuality, it was only about a hundred. Either way, it was the kind of day that makes you want a tall glass filled with ice- and some refreshing drink poured over it. I walked into the house, grabbed a glass, and discovered that there was no ice in the freezer. Oh, the horror. After searching the freezer and determining that there were, indeed, no ice cubes, I started to look … [Read more...]
