Some of my favourite coffee shops in LA based on how much I like their iced vanilla lattes. And you should trust me because I don't think LaLaLand Cafe is that good, sorry.

I mean how good can a drink really be if you're waiting two hours for it, come on now.

A few weeks back I saw a post *somewhere * that was a picture of sourdough toast slathered with several types of pesto and garlic butter. It was a work of art..the different shades of green from the different pestos, like an edible paint swatch, the background a bustling European farmers market..that picture has lived rent free in my brain since then (and do you think I can find it again?!?!?! NO !!! ugh!) So with that beautiful toast having preoccupied my brain for weeks, it time to gather up some of my favorite toast recipes to share. Obviously the basics are simple: 1) toast bread 2) top with delicious foods. But this list might show you some new toast combos that you haven't even considered. I've broken it down to Savory Toast, Sweet Toast, French Toast, and a list of ingredients and supplies. And if any of you saw that pesto toast picture I'm talking about, please ๐ let me know!!

Iโm widowed, and my daughter is grown, but I still love to cook and want my meals to be not only tasty but also aesthetically pleasing. However, after becoming an empty nester, I found it increasingly challenging to prepare appetizing meals in smaller portions. When I searched for ways to prepare meals for myself, I was disappointed to find that many of the recipes on the web were quite tasteless, and inaccurately documented recipes were abundant as well. Determined to create a repertoire of individually portioned meals that were easy to prepare and appetizing, I set out to do so. This list includes recipes that I have tried and found to be delicious, as well as other ideas, tools, and small appliances that contribute to making a table for one easier, tasteful, and more beautiful.
