Happy 2nd Birthday Kitchen Lit!
I can’t believe it’s been 2 years since I started Kitchen Lit. It’s been such a bright spot in my life being able to share my love of cookbooks, cooking and baking with all of you. Last year was a little rough in recovering from the fire and the loss of all my cookbooks. I’ve been slowly rebuilding my cookbook collection. Now I have 27 physical cookbooks and 39 digital cookbooks. I’ve always enjoyed reading digital fiction books but never thought I would like digital cookbooks but I am really starting to love them, especially since they are easy to travel with.

“The spectacle, luxury, and tantalizing saga of Bridgerton has captured the hearts and imaginations of millions of viewers. But among all the heart-racing drama and Regency finery, one thing truly stands out: the magnificent food.

I was so happy with the results from the ones that I tried and would highly recommend this cookbook…

Red, White & Blue Strawberries
The 4th of July has always been one of my favorite holidays. I still remember being a kid and watching the fireworks in Tarpon Springs, FL from my Grandma’s house. To this day, I still think those were the best fireworks I have ever seen. We would often have big family picnics or barbecues to celebrate the 4th of July, filled with laughter, games, and a spread of patriotic dishes. Over the years, I’ve experimented with various holiday recipes, but my favorite has become these Red, White & Blue Strawberries. They are not only delicious but also perfect for the summer strawberry season. The recipe is incredibly simple and doesn’t need to be…
