Gasthaus Louisville: Go There!

You won't be disappointed if you go to Gasthaus! In looking for the perfect restaurant to take my mom for her birthday, I found the reviews for Gasthaus. After reading review after review, I knew it was the place I needed to go.
A few tips I read on-line were spot on and I will pass them along:
Make reservations
Reserve your dessert when you order your meal (or you may not get any as they sell fast!)
Try the Strawberry Napoleon
Enjoy!

We got to sit in the cute little "doll-house" structure in the front of the restaurant. It was super cute!

Philadelphia Cream Cheese: Milk Chocolate Indulgence

Looking for a yummy treat? Try the new chocolate cream cheese. It's like a mini chocolate cheesecake when you spread it on Vanilla Wafers. Heavenly!!!!

Carolyn Braden: Perfectly cute and yummy Blue Cheese Walnut Heart Sandwiches

Here's a recipe for Blue Cheese Walnut Sandwiches. I originally found the recipe in Southern Living. I changed it up a little.
My recipe:
Blend 8 oz. softened 1/3 Less Fat Philadelphia Cream Cheese, 6 oz. The Laughing Cow Light Blue Cheese Spread and 3/4 tbsp organic dry parsley. Mix in 1 cup walnuts (non-toasted).
Spread a thin layer of apricot jam onto a slice of bread and a thin layer of the blue cheese mixture on the other half. I used a heart shaped cookie cutter to make cute, crust-less party perfect sandwiches.
