An easy mojito recipe to enjoy at home. It's hard to find mojitos at any of the restaurants in the small town I'm in, and when I tried to make my own using club soda, they never seemed to turn out right. Using lemon-lime soda instead also cuts down on the amount of sugar usually used.

- 2 limes slices
- 1 teaspoon white sugar , or more to taste
- 0.25 cups ice cubes , or as needed

Pineapple Upside-Down Pound Cake
I specialize in all kinds of pound cakes, and this is one of my favorite pineapple upside-down pound cake recipes. You bake the cake in a fluted tube pan, and you can add pineapple pieces to the cake batter.
Southwest-Style Egg Rolls
Corn, black beans, cumin, and Monterey Jack cheese lend Southwestern flavor to these fried egg rolls. They're perfect for parties. Serve with salsa or ranch dressing, or combine equal amounts of salsa and ranch dressing for a different taste.
Best Carrot Cake Ever
This is the best carrot cake recipe I have ever made! It's so moist and flavorful and makes a large quantity of cake. Since I started making it, I have been hounded to make this cake time and time again. Frost with cream cheese frosting.
