Recipes in this Post Salmon Croquettes Martini Caper Every once in a while, I make too many mashed potatoes. Yes, it’s true, even Spane and I cannot eat as many as I made the other night with liver and onions! A long time ago, I discovered that salmon croquettes were particularly good using a left over baked potato as binder. I had left over mashed, why not I thought? These turned out so good I didn’t even have chance to take pictures! Amber and I munched on them while we sat and talked over a Caper Martini.

No actually, I have frozen lemon juice ice cubes that I made last month with my Kitchenaid “juicer”. Each cube is about the same as the juice of one lemon, so you can add it to other things as well. One component of my lemonade is a little unusual. If you can get to a Mediterranean or Armenian store, you can find Rose Syrup. It’s great in a lot of things, but lemonade in particular. So here is my recipe for the Perfect Lemonade: : Rose Lemonade Ingredients 2 lemon cubes (or juice of 2 lemons) 1/2 cup organic sugar 1 teaspoon Rose Syrup … Continue reading
