Dining Outside the Home: Conroy’s at Marriott Resort on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina 

Dining Outside the Home: Conroy’s at Marriott Resort on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina!  When you receive special attention from the talented kitchen chefs at Conroy’s, sit up and take notice. Culinary delights, high on presentation and exquisite in taste, make an evening meal one worth remembering. Never mind that the oceanfront view is drop dead gorgeous; that’s merely a bonus. The melt-in-your-mouth flavor of the Chilean Sea Bass drizzled with a rich Béchamel Sauce practically made my eyes roll back into my head. If you’ve never tried it, the next time you find it on the dinner menu, order it without hesitation. Chilean Sea Bass is tender, moist, buttery, and sinful. Try it anyway. It is high quality and honestly, you’re worth it!

Eating My Way Through the Alphabet: Letter E

What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Something to Savor: Edible Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough! Now you have no reason to sneak a teaspoon of cookie dough when that sweet craving strikes. Since this recipe eliminates the need for a raw egg, it removes the worry of allergic reactions. Whip up a batch in minutes. I like the idea of spooning half the dough into a canning jar to keep in the refrigerator. Makes snacking unbelievably yummy! The remaining dough can be formed into truffle-size portions and stored in the freezer for later. Edible Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough makes a great gift from your kitchen as well, that is if you have any left to share.
