We make a lot of pizza here in Miss Niss’s home, and this pizza using up leftover ingredients is probably the best one to come out of the oven. It has so many ingredients I don’t know what to call it without listing them all, or calling it The Best Leftovers Pizza Ever. Using some […]
Last week, Miss Niss joined Blog and Tweet Boston for an amazing dinner at Moksa, a Pan Asian Tapas restauarant located in Central Square, Cambridge. We were invited to a four course dinner, and each course was served with a choice of either a cocktail or a glass of wine. This was my second event […]
