I know. It’s seems I’ve been a little absent these days. Can I excuse myself with the summertime slow down period? After all, isn’t August the prime time for vacation? It used to be, at least in Portugal where many companies and the Parliament closed for the month and will return in September together with [...]

Mangoland Series: Mango Ice-cream Pie
“Alright”, he said. “I can have a piece.” He was quite a bit distracted by whatever he was doing on his phone, while relaxing on the big brown couch in the office room, so he didn’t glance the plate I was offering until it was right in front of his eyes. I noticed his pupils [...]
Mangoland Series: Mango Sorbet
These mangoes are sold straight from the trees. Normally, the stands are set right under a shadow of a big mango tree, showing us the fruit hanging in all its splendor. That is one of the best things about buying local Merritt Island mangoes. Therefore, they are well ripened and tasty, fruity and deliciously sweet. [...]

Vanilla Infused Strawberry Sorbet

Vanilla Ice-cream with Walnut Praline and Chocolate

Days of savored meals paired with good wine, white and red. Days where dessert was synonyms of chocolate. Days where it seems we did a lot but there’s [...]
Peanut Butter and Chocolate Ice-cream
Since my ice-cream post, I’ve been trying different flavors with the same base. I already did tangerine, strawberry and I’m delighted with all the possibilities. The good thing about it is that it can be made in any freezer covered container, there’s no need for special ice-creams makers, though I’m considering to get this Ice [...]
Stracciatella and Lemon Ice-cream
I love lemons. At our old house, we had a Meyer lemon tree and those were the best lemons I have ever tasted. They were big, round, juicy lemons and I used to pick one each morning from the back yard for my breakfast. They almost looked like yellow oranges, I wish we could have [...]
