French Polynesian Adventure II: Huahine. To read Part One of this series, check. As with so many inter-island flights, we had to return to Tahiti to fly to Huahine. Isn't it amazing how much more time we seem to spend in airports than on the flight itself? But Tahiti is the hub of French Polynesia, so back we went. Te Tiare Beach Resor. T The reception building is built on a large dock over the lagoon and it also holds the lobby, restaurant and bar. I was in heaven because after Tracy left for her dives ...

Moveable Feasts: Summer Vacation: Nevis, Part One

http://moveablefeastscookbook.blogspot.com/2011/10/summer-vacation-nevis-part-one.html

Summer Vacation: Nevis, Part One. This vacation post is a long one, so I'm going to divide it into two parts. The first part today is about the island and our hotel. The second post will be about the churches and restaurants. We flew from Miami to St. Kitts and then took a 45 minute ferry ride to Nevis. Let's start with the pronunciation of the island. It ought to be Nevis, the "e" sounding like the e in never. But everyone, islanders included, call it Neevis, with a long e. Nevis retains old world charm...

Moveable Feasts: April 2015

http://moveablefeastscookbook.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html

Back in the 70's, Martha, the young daughter of a dear friend, gave me this recipe. Never inquired whose recipe it was or how she discovered it at her young age, but what a gem it is! When company comes, Martha's coffeecake is always on the menu for breakfast, then I watch while everyone goes over and cuts slices of it all day long. It's addictive. Martha is now a grandmother and I wonder if she still makes this coffeecake. Must remember to ask her, she's on Facebook with me. 1 cup sour cream. Pour half ...

Moveable Feasts: Plum Torte

http://moveablefeastscookbook.blogspot.com/2015/08/plum-torte.html

I'm probably the last food blogger to post about this torte, but here it is anyway. I didn't use the suggested buttery oval purple Italian plums (available in early fall). Because I didn't want to wait. M. Y market only had a choice between some huge purple plums and the somewhat smaller pluots.which. Look and taste like a plum, but with apricot overtones. So I brought those home. Originally I had read something about this torte on Smitten Kitchen, the recipe being the. Deb mentioned it tastes even bette...

http://moveablefeastscookbook.blogspot.com/2010/09/how-we-spent-our-summer-vacation.html

So let me tell you about it. Who is buying all these condos? Here are the best of the best as far as we're concerned (not in any particular order):. Caicos Cafe, an old favorite. Which has just been sold; we don't know if it will remain a restaurant.). Anacaona at Grace Bay Club. That's my lovely daughter! As I m...

Moveable Feasts: Fresh Apricot Upside Down Cake

http://moveablefeastscookbook.blogspot.com/2015/07/fresh-apricot-upside-down-cake.html

Fresh Apricot Upside Down Cake. Fresh apricots are iffy; I'm always afraid to bite into one. So often they're mealy and I'm terribly disappointed! But I hate not taking advantage of them when I see them in the market, so now I invariably bake them in bars, tarts or cakes. One caveat: use a skillet or baking dish with at least. Once again, lesson learned: read directions. Thoroughly and then heed them! Still, when I cut a slice.well worth the mess I had to clean up! Fresh Apricot Upside-Down Cake. Special...

Moveable Feasts: French Polynesian Adventure III: Moorea

http://moveablefeastscookbook.blogspot.com/2011/06/french-polynesian-adventure-iii-moorea.html

French Polynesian Adventure III: Moorea. For Part One of this series, check HERE. For Part Two of this series, check HERE. For once, we didn't need to return to Tahiti to get to Moorea. There was a direct flight from Huahine to Moorea. The trip took less than half an hour. Compared to the other islands we visited, we found Moorea touristy and crowded. And here, we had our first run-in with cruise ships. The only other island where cruise ships were an annoyance was Bora Bora. Messy, aren't we? The food a...
