Guys, I have to make a confession here, though I'm sure you already know what it is. I've been slacking here on the blog posts! So, here is the Weekly Favorites post from two weeks ago!

Strawberry Scones with Sweet Lemon Glaze - via All Tarted Up

I'm a bit of a self admitted pastry junkie. Specifically breakfast pastries. Seriously. The worst thing that can happen to me is for someone to bring donuts to the office. So when I saw this recipe for Strawberry Scones, I had to check it out. I'm especially excited about the sweet lemon glaze on these!

Chifferi Elbow Pasta with Cannellini Beans and Tuna - via The Pasta Project

The combination of pasta and fish or seafood is almost legendary. Maybe it gets a bad rap because of the old tuna noodle casserole, but done right it can be a thing of beauty! This combination of the pasta, the tuna, and beans, sounds amazing!

You can make so much more with #macaroni than mac and cheese! How about mac with tuna, beans and onions? Very Italian Recipe >https://t.co/ER72n8Oe9M #lovepasta #italianfood #cannellinibeans #PastaLaMolisana #RecipeOfTheDay #foodblogger #pasta pic.twitter.com/pdIcxVFGCk

Pan Seared Halibut with Garlic Crab Topping - via Ask Chef Dennis

I'm almost positive you've gone into a restaurant and seen a menu item or chef special that is some form of fish topped with crab. I'm also almost positive you have paid too much for it. It's okay, I have too. Now, courtesy of Chef Dennis, you can make it at home!

Time for another batch of favorite food and restaurant articles! This week, I'm exploring articles from Red Thai Curry Prawns, to Fried Squash Blossoms!


Chocolate Coffee Nice Cream - via Daffodils and Lemons

It's interesting to me that even though I am in no way trying to cut out any specific foods in my diet, I keep finding myself drawn to recipes using alternative ingredients. At any rate this "nice cream" looks pretty good to me!

This Chocolate Coffee Ice Cream is eeeeeverything. It has fabulous flavor, and a mouth feel that's unapologetically luxurious.https://t.co/tk5qrjhjp2#desserts #DairyFree #Recipe #recipeblog #foodblogger #foodblog #icecream #TriedAndTrue pic.twitter.com/MTpLIejpJE

Classic Red Thai Curry with Prawns - via Annalena's Heart(h)beat

Typically, I don't make curry, but when I get the chance to eat it, I always do! I like my curry pretty spicy too! I find that the spice goes really well with the coconut milk typically found in curry recipes!

Fried Squash Blossoms Stuffed with Crab and Mascarpone - via Brina's Bites 

Alright, full disclosure here, these fried squash blossoms instantly reminded of Gilmore Girls. There's no shame there. I'll spare you the details of the scene. After the Gilmore Girls moment had passed, I explored the recipe. First, I love crab. Second, the crab and mascarpone combination is so good! I definitely want to try my hand at making these!

Fried Zucchini Blossoms Stuffed with Crab & Mascarpone are crispy, creamy and oh so decadent. https://t.co/qMBeThvsJf #foodblog #recipe #glutenfree #summer #cooking pic.twitter.com/zedz4Tb7TG
