Shishito peppers are small sweet Japanese peppers. They are perfect for sautéing or roasting whole with pretty much any flavors you like.
Since these peppers are Japanese, I decided to go with an Asian marinade which is a really obvious approach but whatever, stop judging me.
Ugh.
The Gilroy Garlic Festival is exactly what it sounds like: it’s a garlic festival in Gilroy.
It’s like Coachella for foodies.
So, as we all know, the World Cup 2014 has reached the semi-finals phase. In light of this holy occasion, I have decided the Top Four Football Teams in the World deserve a cocktail in their honor.
Rue Meynadier is a street in Cannes, France that is riddled with historic specialty food shops and other fun shops. It’s a must see if you are in the area. If you can’t make it to the French Riveria but would love to see it, don’t worry, I got you covered 😉 .

Although she doesn’t seem like a schemer (yet), there are two things you can count on with Sansa Stark: (1) she loves lemon cakes, and (2) she’s going to make a stupid decision.
I never thought paleo stuffed peaches would be so satisfying.
These hit the spot whether your on a “lifestyle change” or not.
