Tomato Soup with Grilled Cheese Croutons

Or Steak Salad with French fries! Ha! I was trying to get fancy on you to get your attention. Truth is – French fries gets anyone’s attention! Last week I was at lunch at our favorite restaurant with my daughters and we all ordered salads. Before the waitress left, my youngest daughter said, “Oh and […]

Life has been complicated lately. So much going on…filled with very complex decisions like guiding my Hubby’s parents into assisted living. The journey was full of emotion but with a resolute of what was best for them. Safety first. Happiness second. They finally landed and we are all working on the happiness part but at […]

This is one of my favorite recipes and I can not believe it’s taken me this long to share it with you! It’s a hearty soup bursting with flavor and easy to make! This recipe came across my path many, many years ago from my single days. A group of my single friends would take […]

I bet right about now you could eat one of these…with a tall glass of cold milk. Full disclosure – I’ve already had two! Snickerdoodles! What a funny word – I love saying it. There is no rhyme or reason behind the name of these cookies. I can imagine someone making sugar cookies and decided […]

New Year. New Day. Clean slate. Right? I’ve been cleaning for days – the tree is down. Presents are put away….and I’m attacking the frig. As Hubby left this morning, I shouted out – “Expect healthy tonight!” not knowing what I was going to make. I knew as soon as I opened the frig and […]
