When I was a child, I never celebrated Children’s Day. It is a traditional holiday that I didn’t know existed. But now that I know about it, I think the concept of Children’s Day is wonderful. The holiday is celebrated on various days each year all around the world for different reasons but all child-related. Whether it’s for Save the Children foundation or to recognize the needs or rights of children, it’s a great way to protect the future of the world. For instance, Children’s Day or El … [Read more...]

April 26, 2011 by 4 Comments
Last week I was invited to a Hellmann's event featuring Bobby Flay's recipes with the help of Hellmann's mayonnaise. Previously I posted the Miami Cuban Sandwich, which is a scrumptious sandwich. So now I am sharing two more recipes that were demonstrated at the event; The New Orleans Chicken Muffuletta with Spicy Olive Relish Mayonnaise and the New York Turkey Reuben with Thousand Island Coleslaw. Both sandwiches are delicious. I'm a bit of a picky eater and I have to say that the flavors in … [Read more...]
Easy Recipe: Bobby Flay’s Miami Turkey Cuban Sandwich
April 23, 2011 by Leave a Comment
[Read my Hellmann's recap with Bobby Flay at La.Venue in New York City.] If you ever tasted and savored a real Cubano (Cuban) sandwich, then you know the real deal. It's a sandwich made with roasted pork, ham, Swiss cheese, pickles, mustard, and depending when you get it, sometimes salami on warm Cuban bread. I love my Cubano to be heavy on the roast pork with some mojo (garlic sauce). You can't go wrong with garlic on anything! Well besides sweets like cakes and cookies. ;) After … [Read more...]

Ocean Spray Sparkling Juice | Review
April 11, 2011 by 4 Comments
I have a little confession to make: I absolutely LOVE soda. If it were calorie-free (I don’t drink or like diet soda), I would drink it every day. But since its all sugar (high-fructose corn syrup to be exact) and about 150 calories a serving, I drink it on occasion. Recently I was contacted by Ocean Spray® offering to send me some samples of their new sparkling juice to try out, which comes in two flavors; cranberry and Pomegranate-blueberry. Ocean Spray® Sparkling Juice is made with 70 … [Read more...]
