A little Holiday Cheer

I don’t make mixed drinks very often (more of a red wine or craft beer gal myself) but this one sounds so delish I may just have to imbibe a little over the holidays. The cocktail itself is more spicy with those maraschino cherry sweet bombs at the end. I love painting cocktails so creating this illustrated drink recipe was great fun (complete with a slightly tipsy Santa…..yikes!!).

My Favourite Cold Noodle Salad Recipe Illustration

Since getting the June /17 issue of Bon Appétit mag in my mailbox, I've been experimenting with the endless possibilities of the cold noodle salad.  There's several pages devoted to this great summer sidekick and how to mix n' match different flavours, colours & textures. It's the perfect vehicle for your favourite produce, proteins, sauces & garnishes. I was immediately inspired to both get in the kitchen and get out my paints!
 

The finished recipe....my favourite combination (so far!)
