I love my friend and fellow food blogger, Jennifer Perrillo. In September we were roommates for BlogherFood09 in San Francisco. During our time together she was so kind to give me all sorts of wonderful things to bring back to Seattle. This included a copy of Japanese Hot Pots: Comforting One-Pot Meals

One of my husband’s favorite Chinese condiments is plum sauce. He dips EVERYTHING in it and who could blame him? The combination of sweet and sour with a touch of heat makes the perfect companion to springs rolls, pot stickers, fried chicken, and duck dishes. This sauce is incredibly easy to make and will have you wondering why you never made it before! [click to continue…]

This has been a great week for SavorySweetLife.com. On Sunday, I was one of the Tasting Panelist for the 2009Seattle Luxury Chocolate Salon sampling an insane amount of artisan chocolate from around the country. Then on Monday, Jaden Hair of SteamyKitchen.com featured one of my recipes on tv and on her blog. If that wasn’t cool enough, I am being featured in an interview for CafeMom.com today. If you’re unfamiliar with CafeMom, they are the largest community for moms AND women’s/parenting site on the internet surpassing iVillage, Babycenter, and MarthaStewart.com. So it really is an honor to be interviewed by them. If you would like to see more of my kitchen and family (yes the picture above are of my adorable daughters), you can read the interview here. And before you go, please keep reading the rest of this post to see how you can win a copy of “Too Many Cooks” by Emily Franklin as well as a small gift card to Starbucks. Thank you to everyone who participated. A winner has been selected! [click to continue…]

For some reason today I was craving Thai iced coffee but ever since we replaced our broken coffee maker for an espresso machine, I’ve had to adapt my specialty coffee drinks into specialty espresso concoctions.
Today was the first time I tried making an iced Thai latte. I was so proud of myself because it turned out so well. A while back I purchased a bag of whole cardamon pods and have enjoyed discovering new and different ways to use them. Today I used them to spice up my afternoon, literally.
Although I found several iced Thai coffee recipes on the internet, there were none for lattes. So I decided to come up with my own. Both my husband and I are so glad I did. I hope you will be too. Enjoy! [click to continue…]
