Williams Sonoma

Grilled Tomato, Fig and Prosciutto Pizza

Entertaining? impress your guests with this beautiful and very unique starter.

Half Baked Harvest

Nutri Ninja Blender

I need this, and you do, too, if you start your day with a smoothie or healthy juice. I am about to have some oral surgery, and this is just the thing to own for healthy healing. The secret is the included vac that takes out the oxygen from your fruits and veggies. Click the link to see a video. Best yet, it is marked down by $80.

Best Buy

Two Minute Green Smoothie

I have to admit that I am not much of a smoothie person. The last one I had was a complimentary starter at the fabulous Parker Palm Springs Hotel. I must admit it was yummy. And this one looks almost too pretty to eat. It's a genius recipe that you make and store in the freezer the night before. 

Half Baked Harvest

Staub 1.5-Qt. Petite French Oven

Fabulous in matte black but also available in other stylish shades.  This  French oven is perfect for cooking grains and other sumptuous sides.  It's also great for simmering jams, soups and stews. In comparison, this is well priced with free shipping.

Pesto & Goat Cheese Risotto

Oh my! This is one yummy looking bowl. Where's a fork?  I adore making risotto. It's a process that is so rewarding. This a "must try" for me.

KitchenAid Classic Stand Mixer

My friend, Sharon, has just bought herself one, and has been putting it to good use. I have a little appliance envy, I must admit. Get this one while it's on sale!

Macy's

No Churn Minted White Chocolate Swirled Ice Cream
This is the base recipe I use whenever I make ice cream.  It never fails. It's a pretty dish and so much better than the kind that come in the cardboard containers.  I keep a loaf pan in the freezer at all times. It keeps the cream cold, and works out perfectly

Now let's face it, veggies smothered in cheese is never a bad thing is it? This recipe lightens up a classic for Summer. I think it is a great way to end the season. Serve it

Foodie Friday: Fall Baking Recipes & Cooks' Tools

{Via: Inslee }

With pumpkins and apples all ripe for the picking, fall is a perfect time to make some sweet desserts. This will not be the easiest post for me to put together. You see, I love with a capital "L" baking. I mean the sweet sound of the mixer, the licking of the bowl, and all of that sugar....who doesn't love to bake? Problem is, in an effort to be a little healthier, I gave up sugar ten days ago. So I won't actually make one of these recipes until Thanksgiving. But do try them and report back to me every gooey detail, please!

HERE: 22 Tasty Treats & Tools

Apple Galette with Tahini Frangipane & Honey-Hibiscus Glaze

Here is a reason to go apple picking this weekend. As beautiful as this dish is, its' real superpower is tahini frangipane. Sounds delish!

Make these for your kiddos school Halloween Party. They will surely move to the head of the class. Amazon has the cookie cutters and if you are a Prime member, 

you can get them in one day.

This is the Cookie Jar 2.0 There are so many reasons to purchase this box. It can be your at home storage for store bought or homemade cookies. It is the perfect traveling companion for those baked cookies. And what a beautiful gift for the baker!

 Pumpkin Coffee Cake with Brown Sugar-Pecan Streusel

They say this is lighter than it looks. All I am thinking about is that thick crunchy layer of brown sugar and pecan streusel. 

Brunch anyone?

Williams Sonoma

Peugeot 19006 Nutmeg Mill

What a fabulous find! I have scraped my knuckles trying to grate the must have Fall spice. Not only does it grate like a whiz, but it stores the nutmeg, too.

Amazon

Mini Chocolate Chip Cookie Pumpkin Cheesecake

That title is a mouth full!  The presentation is precious, don't you think? Here's what they are: Chocolate chip cookies topped with pumpkin spice cheesecake – topped with whipped cream and crisp cookie crumbs.

 Enough said.

Chocolate Pumpkin Cake

I couldn't say this better: "This utterly unforgettable autumn cake layers moist chocolate-pumpkin cake, luscious milk chocolate ganache and fluffy pumpkin-spice

 whipped cream." Oh Yum!

Midwest Living

Salted Apple Pretzel Pie

Now isn't this unique? A beer infused pretzel dough is used instead of the traditional pie dough. What a fun twist on a classic recipe.

Epicurious

Annoyingly Addicting Bourbon 

Apple Fritters

You have no idea what the "Shop This" team could do with this platter of gracious goodness. I think I will test them out for Thanksgiving breakfast. There are a good number of steps, but I am sure that the outcome is well worth the effort.

Leaf Pie Crust Cutters

Ever wonder how those over the top pie crusts get their look? Artistic creations can be yours with this cutter set. Now on sale just in time for Fall Baking.

Caramel Apple Pie

In my view, all apple pies need a caramel sauce. The recipe calls for a jarred sauce. It is so easy to make, I urge you to make your own.

Foodie Crush

Maple-Bourbon Banana Pudding Cake

This recipe had me at Bourbon. There's just something about adding booze to any dish that gives it a depth of flavor, that I love. "While this delicious, simple cake bakes, a sweet, rich sauce forms in the bottom of the dish."

Food and Wine

Specialty Sugar

Smoky sugar? Sounds fabulous! Oh the things you can do with it. Think dry rubs for grilling, rimming a Fall cocktail glass, or as a finishing sugar for pies, cakes, 

cookies and more.

Mouth.com

Mini Apple Cider Pound Cakes

The perfect thing to eat with a hot buttered rum! To me this recipe is all about the glazes. It is suggested that you make three: Streusel Topping, Bourbon Glaze, and 

Lemon-Sugar Glaze. Yes please!

Pumpkin Swirl Cheesecake

We almost always have a pumpkin cheesecake on our Thanksgiving table. You get all of the pumpkin pie spices and even more richness than your basic pie. 

Sally's Baking Addiction

Cobbled Stoneware Cake Stand

Your homemade cake deserves a proper home, after all of your hard work. Even bakery cakes can look better standing tall on one of these. The colors are made for the modern kitchen.
