I decided to combine the two to have a nice breakfast dessert. Besides; we have brunch and even breakfast foods for dinner sometimes. I took my standard waffle batter and altered the recipe for each flavor of waffles that I made.<br />

You can infuse your booze with all types of fruits and even a vanilla bean. You can use vodka, rum, tequila, bourbon and brandy. You can choose your own combination. Last week I infused mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, blackberries and raspberries) with vodka. You can use fresh or frozen fruits. If you decide to use frozen fruit let it thaw some.<br />
<br />
Instructions:<br />
<br />
1. Choose your desired booze of choice.<br />
<br />
2. Choose your fruit.<br />
<br />
3. Prep your fruit. Wash, cut, peel and remove stems or anything else that you don't eat.<br />
<br />
4. Take a clean mason jar and fill it half way with the fruit of your choice. Smash the fruit as much as possible.<br />
<br />
5. Fill the mason jar up with your desired booze. Seal the mason jar with the lid. Then the waiting begins. Place the jar in a cool, dark place; possibly the refrigerator. Minimal waiting time is three days for an 8oz to pint mason jar but I suggest five days. The longer you wait the longer the infusion. Some infusions may take 2-3 weeks ex. apples.<br />
<br />
6. Once ready, take a sifter to catch the fruit as you drain the booze into a clean glass or jar. The best part is; you can eat the fruit. Always remember to drink and in this case eat responsibly. Must be 21 years or older to enjoy.<br />
<br />
For this batch I am going to mixing in lemonade and garnish it with fruit.<br />

My tip this week is about the Pasta vs. Stock<br />
<br />
If you plan on making any type of chili, soups, stocks and broth that require noodles. Do not add all of your noodles to the stock as it may absorb all of your liquid. Keep it separate and serve together.<br />
<br />

<br />
I seen a post today from Jamie Oliver indicating how to properly cut an avocado. I thought that this may be a good post especially since I made guacamole this week for the first time. After I tasted it; I am pretty sure that I will no longer be buying it in the store.<br />

By the end of the week I am planning my next week meal. This helps out a lot when I go to the grocery store. I know which aisles I need to go down which eliminates having to walk up and down each and every aisle. Even though the majority of my groceries come from the outskirts of the store. I always start in the produce section to pick up my fruit and veggies and then off to the butcher. The butcher is where I primarily get all of my meat. I get everything there ranging from seafood to chicken to pork beef and lamb. I am not a big steak eater; I'll eat it maybe once a year if that. Also you can ask your butcher about the different cuts of meat and the variety of ways that you can cook the meat. Finally I make my way to the dairy and bread section.<br />
I notice when I meal plan that I don't over spend and just start buying stuff. Also I don't have to worry about trying to find something to cook. I try not to purchase any can goods so if you have to you can buy some foods froozen and then freeze it (ex. veggies, fruit). I even<br />
started making my own sauces.<br />
<br />
Make out your grocery list to plan ahead. You will have a more successful trip. I have a note section on my phone. That is where I keep my lists.<br />

Today Tastings' Tuesday Tip; I add vodka to my pie crust recipe. Yes, Vodka. I don't have to be the most expensive brand. By adding vodka; you're putting in a liquid that is going to evaporate quickly so you will end up with a very flaky crust. </div>

<b><i><u>Happy Birthday Renee</u></i></b></div>
<br />
For my sister birthday this year she wanted alcohol infused cupcakes. I made three different types; Pineapple Coconut Martini made with Patron, Purple Velvet Hennessy Twist (purple is her favorite color) and Lime Patron Margarita. I was asked for the recipe for the Lime Patron Margarita Cupcakes; I used Rachel Rays recipe <a href="http://www.rachaelraymag.com/recipes/rachael-ray-magazine-recipe-search/dessert-recipes/Lime-Margarita-Cupcakes" target="_blank">Lime-Margarita-Cupcakes</a> but instead of using gold tequila I utilized Patron Silver. I also used a classic cream cheese frosting recipe and added two tablespoons of Patron. For the additional alcohol flavor I brushed on additional tequila while the cupcakes were hot.<br />

My son has been asking and therefore I made it possible. I wanted a recipe that didn't require pectin. Upon research I stumbled upon <a href="http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Strawberry-Jam/" target="_blank">All Recipes: Strawberry Jam Recipe</a> I chose this recipe because it allows you to change the serving amount. I only wanted to make one jar to give it a try. It turned out absolutely delicious. If it wasn't for my daughter I wouldn't buy anymore jelly. She is so picky and her taste buds are funny. Please give this recipe a try or any other jam flavors.<br />

So I finally went out and bought one. A Dutch oven is designed to enhance slow cooking by even heating and locking in moisture for tender results. The enameled design on the inside requires no additional seasonings as the cast iron skillets that are used.<br />
<br />

<br />
For my first meal I decided to make Chicken & Dumplings. It turned out so good and delicious. This Dutch Oven is definitely worth it and I will be investing in different sizes.<br />

I was really tired and just wanted to relax. It has been an exhausting year mentally and physically and to top it off I was leaving to go out of town within two days. After much thought; I decided to throw myself a Moroccan Spa at My Place Party. I hired Make Up & Martinis to come out and give my guests and I makeup application along with manicures and pedicures. I even had my cousin come out to curl my hair. I even provided belly dancing hip scarfs for my guests. I had a blast and so glad that I decided to celebrate my life.<br />
<br />
The color scheme for the room was fuscia, purple, teal, orange and metallic gold.<br />
<br />
I had provided the guests with lite bites to eat while being serviced. We had a tricolor pasta salad, tuna, buffalo chicken dip, french and Caesar salad cups, veggie and fruit skewers with associated dips to accompany, candy jar, and alcoholic jello shots.<br />
<br />
For dessert we had no bake key lime cheesecake and a banana pudding taster spoon.<br />
<br />
My birthday cake was a Banana Pudding Cake.<br />

Since I am a baker; I decided to give two of my guests that helped with Strawberry Cake Cups. To do this I diced up some cake pieces, macerated strawberries, prepared strawberry glaze and powder sugar glaze. <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Bottom layer: 1/3 of the macerated strawberries and and strawberry glaze.</div>
<div>
Second layer: 1/3 of the diced cake</div>
<div>
Then repeat until the top is reached; lastly pour powder sugar glaze on top and seal with a lid.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>

I was so thankful that the client called and gave as much detail about the event as possible. The more details you give about the event the more I can customize the outlook of the dessert. I was told that the colors for the wedding is purple, silver and white. I used a white cupcake liner, white pearl cupcake wrapper along with purple sugar sprinkles and silver pearls. The client requested vanilla cupcakes and vanilla buttercream. When I arrived at the venue for the proposed shower the client was so happy and stated that the cupcakes looks just like it represented the them very well.<br />

I used my chocolate cake recipe and my base vanilla ice cream recipe bur added crushed oreos to the mix. I made the ice cream a day prior and let it set up in a spring form pan lined with parchment paper. The parchment paper helps for easy turn out the next day.<br />

I wanted to make it for my daughter birthday since she absolutely loves Reese Cups. Then she decided that she wanted an Oreo cake for her birthday so I decided to make it for my neighbor son birthday.<br />
<br />
I used my basic chocolate cake recipe; then I added 3/4 cup of creamy peanut butter to my basic buttercream recipe for the filling and frosting. I also added chopped Reese Cups to the top of the filling and the top of the cake. I also poured chocolate ganache on top of the cake.<br />

This year I wanted to celebrate my mother by throwing her a surprise birthday party. I can't believe that she is turning 60 and looks good for her age. I thank God for choosing her to be my mom. She has taught me to be the woman that I am today that no man/father could ever teach.</div>
<br />
For her party I wanted her color scheme to be yellow, silver, white and black. If anyone knows my mother she loves bright colors that's why I choose yellow to be the predominate color. I prepped and planned for this event for about a month.<br />
<br />
I was going to make my mom a cheesecake cake but she called me one day and said for my birthday I want you to make me a Pineapple Coconut Cake just like my mom used to make. I can never replicate the love that my grandmother put in her cakes but I wanted to give my mom the cake she requested. Instead of myself making the cake I had my daughter do it. This made it even more special for her. This was my daughter first time making a cake. The cake was 12" and three layers. It surely was heavy. But it was also delicious.<br />
<br />
I wanted her party to be full of lite bites. On the menu we had three different types of skewers. There was Jerk, Teriyaki and Mango BBQ. We also had itslian and BBQ meatballs. I had boiled corn on the cob and baked beans. For the greens we had ceasar and regular salad. I also decided to dip some pretzels in yellow candy melts. I made cheesecske stuffed strawberries and used the left over cheesecake dip for the grapes.<br />
<br />
The party was a success and she cried tears of joy.<br />
<br />
Love you Mom.<br />

She turned 4 this year and I am delighted to make her a birthday cake. I made her a 8" two layer vanilla cake with pink, purple & yellow rosettes. I attempted to utilize the colors from Dora the Explorer.<br />

A banana pudding cake gives you this option. The vanilla cake is three layers with the vanilla pudding and bananas as a filling. The cake is frosted with stabilized whip cream and garnished with vanilla wafer cookies. This is what I call a two-for-one type of deal.<br />
<br />
The cake does have to be refrigerated due to the bananas being in the filling and made with fresh whip cream. <br />

These dessert cups are cute and can transform your dessert table from blah to gorgeous. With these dessert cups your dessert can be properly displayed showing all of its layers. In this dessert cup there is a layer of crushed vanilla wafers...then a layer of pudding...with a layer of bananas going all the way to the top then finally garnished with whip cream and a vanilla wafer.<br />
