Mom’s Sweet Potatoes
Hi Everyone!!! I hope you all had a great week last week…. last week was a little hard for me because it was my first week back from a great vacation! It is always hard to go back to work and reality after a vacation! While I was on vacation, I got to go wine tasting, and have high tea, (which I will tell you about in a later post!) and I got to visit some of my college friends in Long Island. I even got to go to the beach, which is like heaven for me! :-) Anyways… I did try to make a healthy coconut panna cotta for…

Authentic Syrian Hummus
TGIF everyone!!!!!! I am soooooooo glad that it is the weekend!! Today I am going to share with you my family recipe for hummus. My Dad’s side of the family is Syrian, so you can trust that I know what I am talking about when it comes to Middle Eastern Food! I know that hummus has become a bit of a craze lately, and all the hype is right. It is pretty healthy, and really delicious! But, there are a couple of things that annoy me about the craze. Firstly, everyone pronounces it “hum-mis”, and this is totally wrong! It really should be pronounced “hom-mous”!! The next thing, is all…
