Happy Hour: Red 2005
Worried about what wine to pour for Valentine's Day? Have I got the perfect bottle for you!
St.
Seeing Red
Although Valentine's Day may be over, it doesn't mean you have to get rid of all the red. In fact, red is fab year round! The kitchen supplies in the Yum Market on TeamSugar demonstrate that red is modern, fresh, and vibrant.
Make Red, White, & Blue Popsicles For the 4th
To me the best popsicles are fresh ones with chunks of real fruit. Although I've never frozen a homemade version, it's really not that hard to do. With the right kitchen tools - a food processor, fine mesh strainer - and a few cheap super market add ons - dixie cups and popsicle sticks - you can have a tasty and refreshingly cool summer treat.
Happy Hour: Kono Marlborough Pinot Noir
When YumSugar and I were trend watching at the Fancy Food Show earlier this week, I was really into tasting all of the wines and liquors. Ok I was really into tasting just about everything, but I was paying special attention to anything that would make my next party super duper fabulous (yummy international wines, infused and organic vodkas, martini glasses shrunken to the size of a shot glass, etc). While there, I was lucky enough to meet John, a handsome fellow with sandy colored hair who was pouring tastings of his Kono Marlborough Pinot Noir from New Zealand.

Burning Question: What Causes Red Wine Headaches?
Red wine headache, or RWH, has long been a subject of contention. Contrary to popular belief, it isn't caused by sulfites (both sweet white wines and dried fruits contain more sulfites than red wine), but rather compounds found in grape skins. Still, no single chemical has conclusively proven to be the culprit.
Fast & Easy Dinner: Shrimp and Ginger Stir-Fry
As much as I love talking and thinking about Thanksgiving, sometimes it's nice to take a quick break from the all-American feast and enjoy a simple Asian-inspired meal.
In this recipe, shrimp is combined with a gingery soy sauce, chunks of red pepper, and slivers of green onions. Served on a bed of rice, it makes for a light and flavorful alternative to the season's plethora of comfort foods.
Fast & Easy Dinner: Pork Chops With White Beans

Tonight fix up a simple and delicious dinner that's a cinch to put together. Canned white beans simmered with onions and red peppers serves as a bed for succulent and juicy bone-in pork chops.
Southern (Indian) Thanksgiving
This story was written by member courtneyd and comes from the Kitchen Goddess group in the YumSugar Community.
For a few years now I've wanted to try to marry the traditional Southern Indian food my husband grew up enjoying with Thanksgiving as I know it (Southern girl with a love of spice and heat). So this year I did a trial run of a tandoori-style turkey made in the oven.
A Conversation With Diddy
Rapper and mogul Diddy was in San Francisco last week promoting Cîroc, his vodka brand. I was lucky enough to sit down with the musician, and we chatted about entertaining. Not surprisingly, he consumes a lot of Cîroc and his signature drink is a Cîroc and lemonade — say it fast and it sounds like a lyric in one of his songs, "ci-rocking lemonade."
