This morning I’m staring at a pair of rotten bananas and can’t bring myself to throw them out. I usually do but this morning, I felt particularly guilty. As I was searching in my pantry for what I had to work with – I found an unopened jar of Nutella and a half used bag […]

Easy Waffles Some mornings just beg to be celebratory. A morning where you get up and linger to enjoy the world around you. The joy of sunshine, those who are seated around the table and the food on the table. This was such a morning. The beginning of a three day holiday weekend. My husband […]
I remember Mother’s Days of years gone by when my little girls would make me breakfast in bed. They would make me lie in bed while they were whispering and hustling in the kitchen. The three of them would parade in carrying a tray of toast, cereal and a flower picked from the garden. We […]
So what are you eating for breakfast? Cold cereal? Dry Toast? Store-bought granola? Or are you one of those people who eats nothing for breakfast? Stop eating right now and pay attention. I’m eating homemade granola – and it is the best thing I have ever made! Truly. I’m going to stop gloating and share […]
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 […]
Today is a melancholy day – this week would have been Nonnie’s birthday. Two years ago, Nonnie left us for a better place. It was her time and she left behind warm memories and a large footprint on everyone’s life.

They last longer and boy, did I have a great recipe for them! It’s fragrant with the addition of lemon zest and nutmeg. […]
This is a recipe full of memories which crosses many chapters in my life. Today I’m a bit melancholy and misty-eyed as I remember my (ex) Mother-in-Law who passed a year ago would make blintzes for the Jewish celebrations and my own Mother who now suffers from dementia, used this recipe to make Palatschinke, a favorite […]
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 […]
