It's hot enough to sizzle an egg on the roof of my car at the moment. Summer ... time for a cool dip in the springs, swaying with the waves in the ocean and consuming all things chilled. Here's a recipe to cool you off and a good quote to make you laugh ...
(VIDEO) How would you like for me to bring dinner to your home? Hmm? I can, and will! Well ... sort of ... Bertolli offered to throw me and my friends (and one lucky reader) a wine pairing party. SWEET! MY response of course was, "did someone say wine? Mmm. Wiiiiiine."

I can't believe that there are any heights that can't be scaled by a man who knows the secrets of making dreams come true. This special secret, it seems to me, can be summarized in four C s.

The right words can spark inspiration, ignite and idea or simply bring a smile to your face. Sometimes when I read them I break into spontaneous hopping up and down applause. I'm a big fan of quotes and post them often on Twitter via @Travelblggr. Here are a few of my favorite quotes about cooking, eating and food ...

First, the commercial that had me spewing wine at the television during the Super Bowl. I'm not a big football fan. In fact, I pick my football teams the way I sometimes pick wine ... which ever one has the prettiest packaging. So I was rooting for the Saints only because I like the fleur de lis, black and gold were my college colors, and thought it would be a great boost for New Orleans.

Road tripin' through the Florida peninsula, navigating the treacherous turn pike, past four towering landfills with ominous vultures, speeding through sweaty gator infested swamplands to the tiny island Key West. I know, so out there and exotic you've never even heard of it. And I'll have you know that once you hit the keys ... that last 100 miles ... it's near impossible to find a coffee shop. Dreadful.

This is a simple, quick and elegant recipe that would make a perfect savory pairing with the heart shaped strawberry stuffed French toast for romantic Valentine's Day breakfast in bed. Speaking of romance and Rabbit Hill Inn, Peter Greenburg said, "Your room could act as an aphrodisiac," and Cooking Light Magazine stated they had, "sensual amenities to set the mood." Whoa.

Fresh, made-from-scratch Egg SNAFU. Sounds hoity toity and French, doesn't it? Actually, it's a military acronym for my-breakfast-was-all-messed-up. Or, more accurately, Situation Normal: All Fouled (eh ehm) Up. SNAFU has a cousin named FUBAR. He was in the kitchen that morning too. I'll just let you google what he stands for. Love our United States Military acronyms. Love them. Just not at my breakfast table.

What started as a small category on InnsideStory.com grew into this wonderful collection of breakfast recipes that I've enjoyed creating, eating and sharing. I've compiled my favorites below. Breakfast is the first meal of the day, start it off well! Celebrate the day. Happy New Years!

I found a recipe for homemade maple syrup, cocked my head to the side and furrowed my brow thinking, "homemade maple syrup, what am I gonna do, grow a tree in my kitchen? I'd love a pop-up tree with a spout."
