By | Foodie, Recipes | 2 Comments

We all loved the Fiesta Rice Gloria cooked for our Sunday family lunch!!

Mike’s Sunday Lunch May 11, 2009

Here it is up close- corn, bacon, tomatoes, chinese sausage, tinapa flakes, scrambled egg and chicharon and of course the rice in the middle.  Mike said that we had to mix everything, but we told him not to mix it so we have the flexibility to choose what we want and in the amount that we want 🙂 I guess you can be as creative as you want too and choose the ingredients you want in your own FIESTA RICE!

We know you’re expecting something special from a company like Herr’s with its rich snack-making tradition, and here they are: Herr’s Baked Potato Crisps.

We started with a commitment to quality that our customers have trusted for more than 60 years and ended up with a deliciously satisfying snack that contains 0g of trans fat and 0g of cholesterol.  Available in 4 flavors:  Cheddar and Sour Cream, Barbecue, Original and Sour Cream and Onion

The objective of the ICA Alumnae Association is to continue and reinforce the formation that the school instituted.  And true to the ideals of ICA, the seeds that were planted have borne much fruit:  many ICA students and alumnae have made significant—although some quiet and uncelebrated—contributions to society in their profession, vocation, mission…and in faith.

We have gotten to know our customers around the world for five minutes at a time over the past 40 years. Each moment of connection we have, every personalized beverage we make, helps make our customer’s day special.  Whether it is receiving that perfect beverage from across the bar or a moment shared with friends over an indulgent treat paired perfectly with a Cocoa Cappuccino, our customers return for inspired moments that begin with human connection.

 

As we move into the next 40 years as a company and as a brand, we are thanking our customers with inspired levels of customer service, a dedication to the highest quality of espresso excellence they have come to depend on us for, exceptional coffees such as Starbucks Tribute Blend™, and a renewal of our brand to inspire what the future holds

And the best way to show our gratitude for the past 40 years and the next 40 is to give back to the communities we serve in the biggest way, as only Starbucks can

The Iced Cocoa Cappuccino features a new twist on a classic beverage.  Fresh espresso and bittersweet mocha sauce  is layered with just the right amount of cold milk and ice, which is then topped with foam and finished with a drizzle of mocha sauce and a dusting of cocoa powder.
