While I will not bash the US movie industry, I will [...]

Riesling - Another of My Favorite Things

As a wine lover, I make it a point to sample at least two new varieties each month; one red, one white. To be clear, I am not an expert on the subject, but through the years I’ve tasted quite a few and I know what I like.

Sour apple martinis were already on the menu, so I broke out the Shustoff and the gelatin, and — voilà! Straight coolness. Ah, now this is my idea of a perfect celebratory dessert.

Welcome to diva:flava.style!

    Low carb recipes are the primary emphasis of this site. Deliciously healthy recipes made from fresh whole foods (organic is best), clean carbs, lean protein and good fats. Low glycemic index cooking that helps slim the waistline, tease the senses and delight the palate. Alas, I am an imperfect being who happens to stray on occasion, so I will post the odd "splurge" recipe from time to time.

    diva:flava.style is also my creative outlet for sharing my experiences of healthy living, beauty, fitness and all things delicious.
