We love pasta in our house and crave it about once a week. I try to cut corners with calories when I can and this recipe delivers! I’ve been making it for several years now tweaking it along the way. It never disappoints while giving you the full flavor of Chicken Parmesan… and easily made […]
It’s National Waffle Day! Typically I don’t do ‘National Days’ but for some reason as I was perusing Twitter, I saw the mention of National Waffle Day. At this point, I was wishy-washy over what we were going to have for dinner… I opened the frig and found bacon, blackberries and buttermilk. Tonight we’re having […]
I love poached eggs. I eat them for breakfast, lunch and dinner. There is so much you can do with them! The problem I always have with poached eggs is when I poach them in water, they get weird… strings of white floating in the water… doesn’t do much for the presentation. I found the […]
I’m so out of sorts. It’s the middle of March and it’s 78 degrees out. I go to my closet full of sweaters and struggle to find something to wear. It all started with the time change, it took me a week to get back in rhythm and then there was St. Patty’s Day…it took […]

I’ve been away from this blog and my kitchen for over a week. We were vacationing in one of our favorite places in the world – Key West. I missed my kitchen and my family was hankering for a home-cooked meal. So today, I bring you one of my most treasured recipes. But first a […]
I’m going to admit this right now. I have a crush on Mark Bittman. Okay, it’s out there. I fessed up to my Hubby this weekend so he wouldn’t get jealous. This crush has been going on for a while now but I just never admitted publicly. Too late now, huh? Why the crush? First of […]
It’s a celebratory weekend and I thought I’d serve up the day with something sweet, bright, tart and colorful… Key Lime Cupcakes! I’m celebrating my oldest daughter’s visit. I haven’t seen her since October and we have some celebrating to make up for since I couldn’t see her at Thanksgiving or Christmas. We exchanged presents […]
