100% Pure Maple Syrup

* * * *
I made French toast today topped with sliced strawberries and bananas and this very yummy maple syrup. It seriously tastes like it was freshly tapped out of a maple tree. So good!

Memories of Montego Bay Fiery Jerk Sauce

* * * * *
This is another one of my absolute favourite products from PC ever. I loooove (no, I mean loooove) spicy food and this is one of the best and wonderfully authentic jerk sauces I've ever tasted. And no I'm not Jamaican but as I said, I am a self-proclaimed spice expert and this definitely is comparable to what I've had at real Jamaican eateries.

Cranberry Raspberry Cocktail

* * * *
Had this at my in-laws' place today and it was so refreshing! I love cranberry drinks and adding the raspberry to it, plus the fact that this is one of PC's Blue Menu products just makes it tops for me.

Splendido Basil Pesto

* * * * *
This is an AWESOME product. I love pasta of all kinds and tend to make tomato-based pasta dishes but every now and then I crave a yummy pesto pasta and this is my easy, cheating way of doing it without having to make the pesto sauce from scratch. And really, why would you when this one tastes so darn good?

Vinaigrette - Toasted Sesame

* * * * *
I love experimenting with different types of dressings and this is one of my favourites. I keep meaning to make some sort of Asian salad and use this on it, but all I've used it for so far is tossing it with spaghetti, sauteed shrimp and green pepper. Oh, and I also mix in some red chili pepper flakes into the vinaigrette before tossing it with the pasta. Don't be fooled by the fact that this is a vinaigrette -- I have used this in a warm dish and can testify based on my dinner tonight that it is yum yum!!

Herbal Tea - Ginger Peach

* * * * *
Ahhhh... I love a cup of herbal tea on a cold winter's night. My ever-thoughtful hubby always makes sure we've got this in supply since it's absolute favourite flavour. Ginger and peach... what a soothing combo!

Veneto Pumpkin Triangoli

* * * * *
This is one of the most delightful tasting pastas out there. Egg pasta with a sweet tasting pumpkin filling makes this a perfect dish in the fall and winter months! Heck, with me being a pasta lover through and through, it's great in the summer and spring too!
