I'm super excited to be sharing this Triple Berry Cobbler recipe with you guys! But I am over the moon excited about the fact that I get to tell you all about how you can WIN a trip for two to the CMA Music Festival thanks to Martha White!! Where are all my Country Music Fans?!?! I know you're dying to find out how you can win. I've teamed up with Martha White as a blogger ambassador this year, which means I get to share loads of delicious recipes like this Triple Berry Cobbler, but I also get to share their

Here in Pennsylvania it's always exciting when we spot the first robin of spring. It's such a big deal that it usually makes the front page of the local paper. I guess that distinctive songbird is nature/s way of telling us that winter is almost over. I'm thrilled to report that I spotted my first robin of the year yesterday on my run. This morning I saw another robin outside my kitchen window. While those robins are a sure sign of spring, I'm also taking them as a sign from the universe that warmer and brighter days are ahead, both

Have you ever had one of those weeks where you're weren't sure you were going to make it through? Where a random vein in your arm is twitching for no reason and interacting with other human beings is just not a good idea. Do you know what I mean? This was one of those weeks for me. It was jam packed with silly first world problems. Honestly, today I'm just glad it's over so life can go back to normal. - 'Fingers crossed.' Out of consideration for your safety and sanity, I'm not going to get into the details of

Sangria is a must for summer. Today I'm stirring up one of my favorites: White Wine Sangria! It's an easy and delicious cocktail recipe everyone will love. If I didn't need to work in order to pay my bills, I would probably sit on my porch all summer long eating or drinking something delicious (like this White Wine Sangria!), listening to music, and watching the traffic on my street. In my opinion, it doesn't get much better or more simple than that. Those are the moments of summer (and life in general) that I look forward to the most. The

Cheers to another weekend! Earlier in the week my mom and I went to the movies. When we walked out of the theater around 9:15 p.m., it was still light out. All I could think was, 'Woooah.' This, my friends, is why I'm crazy about summer. The days just never want to end, and flip flops are the shoes du jour. Early morning coffee on the porch and cocktails in the afternoon only add to the allure of this time of year. It's been a while since I've had a Drink and Links post here on IBC, so in celebration

I don't know about you, but I'm always looking for creative cocktail ideas. While the standards are amazing and often my go-tos, I do like to mix things up a bit. If I see something new and different on the menu when I'm traveling, I'll likely give it a try. I just may want to duplicate it when I get home. As you know, I got the opportunity to set sail with Carnival a few weeks ago. While on the ship, there were myriad things to do. Usually, around 4 or 5 o'clock in the afternoon (after a day of

It's cocktail time. With Valentine's Day just a week away, I thought I'd whip up another love-inspired cocktail. I figured that my Sweetie Martini from last year needed some company. Lately, my brain has been overflowing with ideas. Recipes I want to try, mini-(and not so mini-) projects that I want to tackle around the house, and things I want to create. I love when I have these floods of creativity. Now, if I could only figure out how to stop time and just create. Since that's impossible, I'm doing my best to take good notes and use my time

If you're looking for a classic margarita recipe, this is it! A simple recipe with really good ingredients creates a delicious margarita every time. Cheers! Cinco de Mayo is next week so I thought a little celebration was in order. With a celebration we need a cocktail. Today it's a classic margarita recipe! A long time ago I shared my recipe for a classic cosmopolitan. As much as I enjoy trying new things with unique ingredients, sometimes the classics are just as good, if not better. When you combine quality, simple ingredients, magic happens. In fact, that's probably why some

Inspired by the classic Italian dessert, this Tiramisu Martini is an delicious and decadent cocktail recipe! Okay. Okay. I know I've been gushing about my recent cruise, but it was so magical and memorable, that I just can't stop talking about. If you've never been on a cruise, it's definitely something I hope you will get to experience at some point in your life. I was very lucky to go on this particular one with my mom. I know it might seem a bit strange for a thirty-something to go on a cruise with his mom, but my mom is
