My grill is crappy. It’s of the camping variety, those that sit low and are small. I’ve been wanting to try grilling pizza all summer, but have lacked the patience. But now that things are cooling down and football season is kicking up, I think that this Rustic Eggplant Grilled Pizza just might be whispering sweet nothings in my ear. Hearty, delicious and perfectly fall.

{Unknown}Have you been having an amazing first week of fall? I have. Here in Oklahoma we’re experiencing a lot of below average temperatures and I’m soaking up every moment! Not only did I break out the Halloween decorations (fine, that was last week), but some long sleeves, too. Have a fantastic weekend and enjoy this week’s Mad Props!

1. Bailey’s Coffee Cream CrunchThis is actually more of a House Swoon. I love the classic structure of this Charleston, South Carolina home that has a few unexpected elements thrown in. Like the double staircase to the front door and the slim windows flanking it on three sides. I adore black shutters on a white home and all of those lovely trees and surrounding greenery only help to enhance the entire structure. But my very favorite part? The hanging porch lamp to be sure.
Posted In house and homeThis recipe for Indian “Espresso” Coffee looks a-maz-ing! There’s actually not even a speck of espresso involved, the creamy froth is the result of whipping coffee and sugar together. Is it just me or does this look highly addictive?
Posted In recipesI don’t normally go for blended frozen drinks, but his one looks deliciously dangerous. Silky smooth and way too easy to drink ten of. But this is no frou-frou cocktail, there are six – count ’em six – kinds of liquor in a Call a Cab Cappuccino.
Call a Cab Cappuccino
– 1 1/2 oz shot of Espresso – Chilled
– 1 1/2 oz shot of Godiva Chocolate Liquor
– 1 1/2 oz shot of Godiva White Chocolate Liquor
– 1 1/2 oz shot of Godiva Caramel Milk Chocolate Liquor
– 1 1/2 oz shot of Kahlua
– 1 1/2 oz shot of Frangelico
– 1 1/2 oz shot of Vodka
– 4 scoops of Vanilla Bean Ice Cream
– dark chocolate to garnish – optional
– piro to garnish – optional
In a blender, add your ice cream & then add in all of the remaining ingredients. Pulse until well blended. Serve immediately. Chill any remaining drink.
Posted In cocktailsI’m obsessed with pot de crème. But I would reveal all the secrets I’ve ever known if you made me one of these. (Are those little cups just the best??)

Posted In recipesNew graduate Jack Bresnahan exhibited a series of biodegradable plastic lids that repurpose used tin cans into household containers in a New Designers show last June. A set of nine in all, which transform the cans into objects including a vase, soap dispenser, sugar caster, tea and coffee canisters, toothbrush holder, money box and desk tidy. Love these, very smart design at work.
