Our Movies and Munchies selection for this month is Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, hosted by Camilla of Culinary Cam. The movie has a sequel, and we can choose which one to watch. Or we could watch both. I had never watched either of them, nor had I read the book they were based on, so I chose the original movie.
We are still enjoying warm weather here in Michigan, and we are heading to Cabo in a few days, so I am dreaming of cocktails poolside. This Banana Daiquiri is the perfect Indian Summer cocktail.
This hearty, filling chowder, made with leftover rotisserie chicken and leftover corn on the cob, is a perfect way to welcome the fall weather as it finally makes its way into Michigan.
These delicious, tender muffins are perfect for breakfast at home, as a grab-and-go meal on your way out the door, or as a snack in your lunchbox. Studded with fresh apples and covered in a cinnamon crumble, you might want to grab two.
Strawberry Shortcake and Cheesecake collide in this delicious and easy dessert.
I love fresh figs. Maybe they are special to me because they are only available for a few weeks each year, and I live in Michigan, where we don't grow figs. True, I enjoy fig jam, fig newtons, and dried figs year-round, but I'm always excited when I find fresh ones at the market and eagerly pay a small fortune to bring home a case.
Chicken Meatballs warmed in a homemade sweet-and-sour sauce studded with fresh bell peppers, served over a brown rice-quinoa blend for a perfect, quick, and easy fall dinner as the kids head back to school.
