Or, maybe this will be a triple play. . . Keep reading and find out! I LOVE baseball! And whether they are winning or not, I am a big fan of the Texas Rangers. I also LOVE sweet stuff, although I don’t make or buy much of it. Probably because I know myself way too well. I’d eat it! I do heart Jolly Ranchers and Sour Patch Kids. Oh, and gum balls! I’m sure I will have my own gumball machine and an endless supply of gum balls in Heaven. And when I do make a dessert, generally it involves fruit.

But I hate wasting good tomato juice, so I manage to drink it. Like this Spicy Bloody Mary.

And it wasn’t easy to pick just one to make from each of them – although with my persistent procrastination, one recipe from each was really all I had time for.

The first recipe is from Gloria who lives in Calera de Tango, Santiago, Chile. She has so many fabulous recipes, both in English and in Spanish! Check out her blog at Canela Kitchen. Here’s […]
