Sansa’s Lemon Cakes

Posted on July 2, 2017July 2, 2018 by lakesandlattes

Sunday Morning Cinnamon Rolls: Quick & Easy!

Posted on June 25, 2017July 2, 2018 by lakesandlattes

I love lazy Sunday mornings. I’m usually up hours before the rest of the family and it’s such relaxing time to sip coffee, read and relax. We try to keep Sundays for family and really limit any social activities. It’s the only day everyone can sleep in as long as they want since there’s no…

We recently took a family trip to Ireland.  For 8 glorious days, we drove around beautiful countryside, took in the sites, and tucked into Irish Soda Bread.  They serve this bread everywhere.  It’s such a delicious, nutty, tangy treat.

Colorful Mango Sticky Rice – Khao Niao Mamuang

Posted on May 26, 2017July 2, 2018 by lakesandlattes

Have you ever tasted Mango Sticky rice? This is one of my favorite Thai desserts.  It’s typically served warm and the flavors from juicy, ripe mangos and creamy coconut sauce work so well together. On a recent trip to Whole Foods, I stood in amazement at all the different colors of rice offered in their…

Itineraries are Overrated

Posted on January 7, 2017July 2, 2018 by lakesandlattes

There are many things I admire about my husband. Most of them I knew before we were married. His brilliance. Kindness. Integrity. His sense of humor. His dance moves and bartending skills. There were some traits that surprised me after we were married, like his innate ability as a father. In fact, the first infant he’d ever…
