That cute little cat (photo-boming my foodie pic) is Durango, one of our many rescued New York Strays. In this post, you will find out how he turned a peach into a beach ball, while I turned one into a tasty drink.

🍑  If you're feeling hot under the collar these days, you are not alone. We have at least one solution for you: a wonderfully refreshing and hydrating recipe. It's also a great way to use extra fruit in your fridge that may be getting a little too ripe.

Why virgin? A white wine sangria is delicious, but on a workday, I prefer that my fingers hit my laptop keyboard rather than my forehead, which means no firewater until the day is done.

A virgin sangria is also a good idea for households with kids because it can be converted into an adult beverage at the time it's poured, which means one pitcher can conveniently serve drinkers and non-drinkers alike.

How to make my Light BLUEBERRY BLONDIES from Billionaire Blend by Cleo Coyle

Print Friendly and PDF


A light and lovely cross between a butterscotch blondie and a blueberry muffin, these Blueberry Blondies are a bonus recipe from our bestselling culinary mystery, Billionaire Blend

When you bite into these amazing treats, you'll taste butterscotch background notes thanks to the butter, brown sugar, and vanilla. And though they're more "cakey" than a traditional blondie, once cooled, you will get a slightly chewy texture with a nice, crusty top reminiscent of an actual blondie. Best of all, though, this "blueberry" version has less calories and more nutrition.

You can also use fresh or frozen blueberries in this recipe, which means you can make it year-round.
