Kasper Family German Holiday Moos
December 5, 2008 by Kimberly · Leave a Comment
In German Moos (pronounced “mouse”) is a “dried fruit sauce” or dessert stew. Often called “pluma moos” as well. It is most delicious, a dessert of love and amazing for the Holidays!
Grandma Kasper was an amazing cook and everything she made was memorable! During the Holidays, this special Moos was a dessert, a treat, a snack and a wonderful addition to the flavors we remember being present during the Holidays.
What we wouldn’t give to hear her singing in her farmhouse kitchen while preparing her Holiday meals & Holiday Moos! You really must try this one!

Golden Pear Liqueur is Delectable!
June 1, 2008 by Kimberly · 6 Comments
Maybe it’s just me, but I haven’t seen this liqueur on the market for long…
It is a product from Hungary and it tastes amazing! It is not a well labeled bottle, but it is a rounded bottle and is distributed by Zwack Unicum PLC.
It has the taste and aroma of pear and is peach in color.
The alcohol content is 30% and it is recommended to drink on the rocks or with a few drops of lemon juice.
I would love to use this in a cheesecake or something of that nature! It would even be fantastic drizzled over ice cream! Yum!
Wow…delicious!!! You’ll have to try it!
I just wanted to recommend it to you because it is now one of my favorites!

What in the World Would You Like to Find Inside of an Oyster?
March 21, 2008 by Kimberly · 3 Comments
I was asked today…
“If an oyster could produce something other than a pearl, what in the world do you think would be a cool thing to find in an oyster?”
I explored a lot of options, including diamonds, my favorite food, lobster…even the whimsical, like music or sunshine…but since I was in an Easter mood…
…What if you went and collected a bunch of Gulf oysters, and opened one up, only to be gifted with a Beautifully decorated Easter egg? How cool would that be? (I’m a little biased as I am 1/2 Ukrainian…)
Have you seen Ukrainian Easter eggs? The method of decorating these gorgeous treasures is called “pysanka”.
The designs on the eggs are not actually painted on, but written on with beeswax in the wax-resist method.
It is tradition in many Eastern European countries to decorate eggs for Easter.
Okay…since you will likely never find a Ukrainian Easter egg inside of a lovely oyster, I did find some great recipes that include both oysters and eggs on the BeOysterAware.com recipe page, including Oyster Cakes and Oyster Quiche…
* FYI: Oysters are a low calorie protein, have omega-3 fatty acids, zinc and vitamin B-12…Plus, they are soooo tasty!

Eat Deliciously & Happy Easter,
