Food: Let's Talk About Mushrooms

Mushrooms add a texture and smoky flavor to your meals. Mushrooms are my "go to" ingredient. I use them to add weight to simple soups, texture to a majority of my potato dishes, and to flavor salads.

Below are some vinegars and oils which I use to prepare mushrooms.

1. Safflower oil
2. Grapeseed oil
3. Extra Virgin Olive oil
4. Garlic Oil
5. Balsamic vinegar
6. Basil Oil
7. Red Wine Vinegar
8. White vinegar

In addition, I have also found that soaking mushrooms in lemon, lime, and/or tangelo juice adds a yummy spark of flavor to them. Especially, when used on salads and chicken.

Divatosity: Reclaimed Wood

I love the look of reclaimed wood. The color and texture of the wood makes me think of a quaint field with farmhouse in the distance.

Divatosity: She Has Good Bones

This table is older than I am. My parents bought it back in the earlier 1970's. It is truly an antique. Alas, over the years she somehow became neglected. She has been a holder of travel souvenirs, bowls, and even a vase or two. After I nurse her back to health, I plan to use her as a vanity of sorts.

Divatosity: Striped Palettes Are So Much Fun!

This color palette is a good precursor for Spring...which cannot get to the Midwest soon enough. This color palette makes me want to sit outside on the patio of a bistro. I imagine myself seated on an elegant black wrought iron chair surrounded by dear friends.
