Crio Brü Gift Box Giveaway

I’m very excited about the special giveaway I’ve got for you today! I have an almost daily habit of brewing up a cup of Crio Brü for myself in the morning. (I’ve written about Crio Brü before: here, here and here.) Crio Brü is a brewed drink made from 100% premium roasted cocoa beans. Those who […]

In her newest book, Weelicious Lunches, Catherine McCord covers just about every possible hurdle you might face in packing a lunch for your kids to take to school.

Who knew that I would taste the best lemonade I’d ever tasted in the middle of a strawberry field in Oxnard, California? Random, I know, but those tend to be the best discoveries!

We’re citrus fanatics in the Fuji household, and so we love the winter months when citrus season is at its peak. The Fujilings love helping out in the kitchen when any citrus is involved, knowing that they’ll get to snack on whatever citrus we’re cooking with as we go. One of the varieties we’ve fallen […]

This Sunday is the big championship game, and trash-talking has already begun in the Fuji household. But no, I’m not referring to the Super Bowl game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Baltimore Ravens.

I love cranberry sauce. In fact it may just be my favorite part of the Thanksgiving meal lineup. But cranberry sauce shouldn’t be reserved for the Thanksgiving table—I think it should be a part of the entire holiday season because of its versatility.

I love Julia Child for many reasons—her spunk and dogged determination, her love for life and cooking, her love for France, and her cookbooks. But another reason I love Julia Child is because she was a cat lover, a fact which award-winning children’s book author Susanna Reich captures in her book, Minette’s Feast: The Delicious […]
