It's a slice of tropical island life - all at a roadside stand in Delaware!

Tiki Murph is a popular stop for Delaware beachgoers on the way to their shore vacation.

Rehoboth and Lewes beachgoers know the tiki stand well, as they've been passing it on the way to those Delaware beaches for the past 15 years.

It's located on Bay Road in Milford, DE, along Route 1.

The Durst family from Philadelphia makes it a point to stop by on the way down the shore every year.

"It's been a tradition for us," Edward Durst says. "We don't live near water, so we bring a piece of the shore, home to Pennsylvania. And they're handmade, hand carved!"

It features hundreds of tiki carvings crafted by local artisans, all carved on site.

The stand is decorated with palm trees in a Polynesian island atmosphere, and they display a rotation of hundreds of tiki carvings.

You can hear the carving of the tikis on site by local craftsmen in their backyard.

"When you go home, the vacation never ends," says Edward. "You bring a little piece of the beach home with you."

For more information, you can check them out at Tikimurph.net .

These Ritz Cracker Sandwiches Vanish Before the Party Starts

Ritz Party Sandwiches transform familiar buttery crackers into warm, savory appetizers that are exactly the right size for grabbing from a crowded table. Cheese and flavorful sandwich fillings sit between pairs of crackers, creating miniature bites with a crisp exterior and rich center. As they bake, the cheese melts, the filling warms, and the crackers become even more aromatic without losing the delicate texture that makes Ritz crackers so recognizable. Each small sandwich delivers salt, butter, cheese, and savory flavor in one or two bites, which explains why people rarely stop after taking only one. The recipe does not require elaborate pastry, specialty bread, or hours of preparation, yet the completed tray looks more thoughtful than simply opening a box of crackers. It is party food built around convenience without tasting like the cook took an obvious shortcut.

Grandma Was Right About Potatoes and Onions

Sometimes the most memorable food begins with ingredients so ordinary that their transformation feels almost unfair. Southern Fried Taters and Onions take potatoes, sliced onion, garlic, oil, salt, and pepper and turn them into a skillet full of golden edges, tender centers, and deep savory flavor. As the potatoes cook, some pieces crisp against the hot pan while others remain soft enough to soak up the sweetness released by the onions. That mix of textures is what makes a simple recipe so hard to leave alone. Every serving contains a few crunchy bites, several buttery-soft slices, and caramelized onion tucked between them. No cream sauce, specialty cheese, or expensive meat is required to make the skillet smell like a proper country breakfast or old-fashioned family supper.

Four Ingredients Make This Lemon Cake Almost Unfair

A dessert with only four ingredients should not taste this rich, but lemon pie filling, cream cheese, cake mix, and butter know exactly how to work together. The lemon creates a bright, tangy layer while the cream cheese adds pockets of smooth richness. Cake mix and melted butter form a golden topping with soft sections, crisp edges, and the comforting flavor of a homemade cobbler. Every spoonful lands differently depending on how much citrus, cream cheese, and buttery crust it captures. The result feels more complicated than the assembly suggests, making this recipe ideal when time is short but dessert still needs to impress. As it bakes, the lemon bubbles around the edges and the top becomes golden, filling the kitchen with an aroma that makes waiting considerably more difficult.
