Off To Market: New Blender
I've decided to give myself a spring time treat in the form of a new blender. As you can imagine I'm all about cocktail making during the summer and I try to use as many fresh ingredients that oftentimes require blending and blitzing. A new blender that can expertly and efficiently crush ice and smoothly mix it into a piña colada is very important to me.

Summer of Salads: Sun-Dried Tomato Pasta Salad
Whenever I'm cooking for a crowd and need a recipe that's portable, I always consider pasta salad. It's filling and easy to make a large batch. While sometimes I assemble a Mediterranean pasta salad with orzo and feta, I also like to make this recipe with tomatoes and mozzarella.
Happy Hour: Appleton Estate Jamaican Rum
In my continuing quest to think outside the spirit box, I have developed not only an appreciation for gin, but also one for rum. Well not just any rum, Jamaica's finest Appleton Estate rum. Earlier this week I was invited to an tasting at Spruce restaurant in San Francisco, and I got to sample the rich caramel-colored liquor neat in four different cocktails.
Fast & Easy Dinner: Artichoke Wraps With Veggie Slaw
When the weather is gorgeous, who wants to waste time in the kitchen? This no-cook recipe is ideal for hot Summer nights because it comes together quickly and is 100 percent portable. It does, however, require a food processor or blender to make the thick artichoke-chickpea hummus-style spread.
