    Orange Honey Glazed Salmon

    August 20, 2024 /

    Hip Hip Hooray, here is a mouth-watering delicious meal that will serve as a welcomed delight for your eyes and stomach! This Orange honey glazed salmon recipe is a nice switch up from our usual chicken or beef routine. We were starting to get out of control with our burgers and pizzas this summer, (but who could blame us). But now that we are heading towards the end of summer, we are looking for a filling yet, delicious switch of main courses. We think you will enjoy this too! Try this recipe similar to the Honey Glazed Salmon offered at the Le Cellier Steakhouse at Epcot Park at Walt Disney World…

    Simplicity in a time of chaos. In today’s times it is so abundantly clear that there are not enough hours in the day to accomplish all of the items on our to-do lists. Everyone seems to be  racing at light speed to get here or there, shuttling kids to one gathering to another, impressing clients, or bosses to climb up the corporate ladder.  While hurling through life at warp speed to reach goals and milestones, everyone seems to just be getting their actual life spoon fed to them by means of social media, phone messages and endless texts. Everything rushed, nothing truly appreciated. I enjoy and need my time walking,…

    Inspired by Frozen Banana popsicles at Disney World Magic Kingdom at Disney World Lake Buena Vista, Florida Looking for a great way to cool off and satiate your sweet tooth? Look no further than this addictive snack that is a big departure from your normal go to’s. Prepare these frozen banana treats and be a hero in your neighborhood or party sphere.

    Mexican Arroz Con Pollo

    June 30, 2022 /

    Inspired by an amazing night out on the town in Cancun, Mexico While on our way to scout a potential site to open a Del Sol store in a sleepy little village and cruise port town of costa Maya, We first disembarked in Riviera Maya, Cancun Mexico. This colorful and vibrant city is beautiful and bustling. A mecca for tourism and a mixture of old world charm give the city a very unique and appealing draw. Colin and I were taken aback by the amazing smells and inviting smiles that permeated the air. There were so many lovely restaurants to take in and sights to see and enjoy. One night,…

    Look No Further Than Charleston SC For A Getaway To Remember!

    March 6, 2022 /

    Grab your fried Green tomatoes and Sweet tea and come on.. If you are passing through or live anywhere near the beautiful and charming city of Charleston, you have to stop and take note. Soak in the slow southern ambiance and mossy green trees. Smell the coast and feel the warm sun on your skin as you walk a few of the cobblestone streets. Charleston, the South Carolina port city founded in 1670, is defined by its cobblestone streets, horse-drawn carriages and pastel antebellum houses, particularly in the elegant French Quarter and Battery districts. The Battery promenade and Waterfront Park both overlook Charleston Harbor, while Fort Sumter, a federal stronghold where…

    Sweet & Spicy Grilled Hawaiian Pizza

    Looking for an awesome Friday night, fun party vibe switch up? Whew, that was a mouthful…. This is one of those Hawaiian dishes you’ve probably had before. We know it’s getting chillier outside but who doesn’t love a tasty treat even if frozen? There’s a great mix of flavors on this pizza that gives it such a unique profile, but it’s good enough that anyone can enjoy it. Tasty ribbons of honey ham over buttery-seasoned pizza dough with rich tomato sauce, freshly melted mozzarella, sweet grilled pineapple, crisp red caramelized onions, Hot & Sweet Jalapenos and combine for this Hawaiian inspired pizza recipe. YUM To really make this dish something…

    Have you ever looked at a child, family member, or even your spouse while they are reacting to a funny joke? Ever heard a story related to their childhood that just blew you away because as they were recalling the story, their face absolutely lit up and you noticed new bits and quirks of their personality that you had never seen? It’s mornings like these, that capture the feeling. Mornings, when nature and nurture are in tune and you are sharing a perfect moment with someone you love. This tends to happen often for those fortunate enough to spend quality time with each other in a relaxed and fun environment.…
