Lemon 🍋 Meringue Pie

Just whipped up some adorable mini-lemon meringue pies for dessert this New Year’s! 🎉✨

This has been my favorite dessert since I was a child. The creamy filling, enriched by the smooth texture of condensed milk ( ), creates a luscious base that’s both zesty and indulgent.

Topped with a fluffy, golden meringue, each bite is a light and airy contrast to the rich filling. It's the perfect balance of tartness and sweetness.

This classic dessert is not only easy to make but also a crowd-pleaser, bringing a burst of sunshine to any gathering. It’s a delicious way to brighten up your day!

Cheers to a sweet start to the new year! 🍋🥳

DESIGN TIP:
Designers are always looking for ways to add depth and intrigue to the spaces we create. Accents and accessories are the keys to pulling a room together. They make a huge impact on any environment.

As a designer, I know the effect accessories can have in a space. But, you must use them wisely because they can break a space, and quickly overtake a room.

Accessories bring bits of character to your interior, but most of all they are the most inexpensive way to liven up your space.

Visit my blog, Curated Living by Shandra, for more tips on decorating with accessories.

October 4th is National Taco Day! This day recognizes the savory tortilla stuffed with fillings. It doesn’t have to be Tuesday, so get out and enjoy your favorite.

Whether you prefer soft or hard-shelled tortillas, most agree tacos satisfy a snack craving. However, they also make delicious meals. Considering that many are filled with seasoned, lean meats and vegetables, tacos go beyond delicious. Fish tacos or shrimp tacos with grilled seafood add a whole other flavor profile.

While you’re celebrating be sure to share recipes and give a shout out to your favorite Mexican restaurants, food trucks, and taco stands.
