There’s no better way to start a special day than with a delicious breakfast. If you’re not sure what to get your loved one for the sweet and romantic holiday, try serving them a cocktail and breakfast in bed—it’s a gesture that will win you extra brownie points any time of year, but especially on Valentine’s Day. We’ve got plenty of delicious ideas that fit the theme: heart-shaped foods, pastries that are decked out in red and pink decorations and, of course, lots of chocolate options. These lemon poppy seed pancakes are one of our favorites. Lemon helps offset the sweetness with balanced acidity, and poppy seeds add tiny bits of texture. A homemade raspberry syrup adds the festive pink color and fruity flavor that make these pancakes the ideal Valentine’s Day breakfast.
Irish country pubs serve some of the coziest soups you’ll ever eat. Our rich, hearty and delicious bowls of Irish soup will transport you to the Emerald Isle.
Stopping for lunch at an Irish country pub, you won’t find corned beef heading the menu. (Corned beef is an Irish-American specialty, as pork was more expensive than beef when the Irish first immigrated.) Instead, the perfect Irish pub lunch is a delicious, hearty soup. It’s usually served up with a thick slab of bread that’s generously slathered with fresh, sweet cream butter.
Those looking to cook something similar in your own kitchen are in luck. Our Irish soups and stews are rich with hearty meat, root vegetables, grains and fish—just the thing to ward off the chill. From brothy soups to loaded stews, there’s a little something for everyone looking to bring classic Irish recipes into their home.
Purging your kitchen of old things you don’t use anymore is therapeutic—and potentially profitable.
It’s a tall task to keep counters and cabinets tidy. Your cupboards are likely stocked with kitchen items a professional organizer would toss. (You’re not alone, I promise.) To make your life easier, spend a day decluttering the kitchen.
Before you pack things up for the thrift shop, though, consider that some vintage kitchen items are worth hundreds of dollars. Here’s what to keep an eye out for while you clean house.
