Authentic Mexican Pan Dulce (Sweet Bread) Recipe

by Amparo Randall May 30, 2019

If you're like me and you find yourself far away from a good panaderia and you're craving an authentic concha, this is your recipe. When you do make them, serve them on a nice big serving tray from JTWoodworks. They make cute serving trays that double as cutting boards, which can be personalized and make great gifts

The Best Cheese Sampling in Maine

by Amparo Randall February 09, 2018

I love cheese (I know, that’s not a very unique statement) and I have been waiting for the perfect event to put out a cheese platter. Sitting in front of the television in my pajamas this evening, watching the Winter Olympic opening ceremony will do.

Portland, Maine has more restaurants per capita than probably any other city in the country. Despite the bevy of fabulous dining options, one of my favorite places to nosh is the Cabot Farmers’ Annex on Commercial Street. Why? Two words: cheese samples.
