Strawberry Elderflower Bakewell Tart

May 29, 2022 by TheRunawaySpoon Leave a Comment

On the  weekend of June 4, Queen Elizabeth will celebrate 70 years on the throne. If you have followed me for any length of time, you will know of my love for things British and that I spend quite a bit of time in London. So I most certainly want to celebrate this historic milestone. Because sticking with one thing for 70 years is a massive achievement anyway you look … [Read more...] about Strawberry Elderflower Bakewell Tart

Strawberry Lemon Delicious

May 1, 2022 by TheRunawaySpoon Leave a Comment

Strawberries are the harbinger of brighter days ahead and I make the most out of them for the brief time they are in season.

Aperol Spritz Sugar Cookies

April 11, 2021 by TheRunawaySpoon Leave a Comment

During the last year, the patio at my house has been my saving grace. I have room to space more than six feet apart, so family and a small pod of friends have visited for food I have prepared, takeout from local restaurants, but above all, cocktails. We’ve even had local bartenders provide delivery cocktails on occasion. Mind you, we haven’t gone overboard and more often than … [Read more...] about Aperol Spritz Sugar Cookies

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.
