Fresh Strawberry Margarita Pie

April 23, 2023 by TheRunawaySpoon Leave a Comment

Cinco de Mayo and strawberry season line up here, so what better way to celebrate than a strawberry margarita? Well, the answer is a pie made with fresh berries, lime and a hit of tequila. This sweet, tangy and cool treat has been a real hit from me. One family member tells me every time we share a meal that “that strawberry tequila pie is the best thing you make.” I get the … [Read more...] about Fresh Strawberry Margarita Pie

Strawberry Caramel Cake

April 16, 2023 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

I don’t know if necessity is the mother of invention here so much as desire. I had beautiful strawberries. I needed to make a dessert. I knew I needed to make something new and exciting, but I really craved my strawberry caramel sauce - it’s a favorite of mine.

April 2, 2023 by The Runaway Spoon 1 Comment

I love a Mimosa at a spring brunch. Orange juice and champagne – it’s like a cocktail, but healthy for breakfast (right?). It’s a classic combination of flavors that really sings of spring and fresh flowers and floaty dresses. And with Easter coming up, I want to share this special twist to that brilliant pairing. Lemon curd is such a treat, but once you’ve mastered … [Read more...] about Mimosa Curd (Orange and Prosecco Curd)

Orange Clove Caramel Spread

December 4, 2022 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

Do you remember pushing whole cloves into an orange to use as a Christmas decoration? We called them pomanders and I just love the smell of orange peel and clove. It speaks to me of Christmas. With a pretty ribbon pinned to the top to tie to the tree or sitting on the counter fragrancing the kitchen. But pushing those cloves into the oranges with your thumb really hurt. I … [Read more...] about Orange Clove Caramel Spread

I'm P.C. I think I am like most people. Somewhere in the middle between food snob and food schlub. Just being in the kitchen makes me happy. I live, mostly in my kitchen, in my hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
