Green Beans and Cucumbers with Miso Dressing
This Green Beans and Cucumbers with Miso Dressing is very similar to a Chinese Smacked Cucumber Salad. You basically smack the cucumbers and green beans with a rolling pin then tear them up into pieces. You can get out all of your aggressions while making this delicious and refreshing salad.

Rhubarb Fizz
This refreshing drink calls for rhubarb-infused simple syrup for flavor and sweetness, tart lemon juice as a foil to the sweetness, gin for depth and strength, topped up with sparkling wine. Perfect for the spring and summer, this is a little like a fruity French 75, on the rocks.

Radish and Jicama Salad
This Radish Jicama Salad, which is a very fresh tasting Spring salad, is loosely based on a recipe from Real Simple magazine. I changed a few things. Instead of red onions, I used 2 green onions and I left out the cilantro. I despise cilantro!
