Everyone’s back to where they’re supposed to be and routine has begun once again. I’m alone in the house today….exhaling. No more Christmas cookies, no pine needles, no ornaments or ribbons. Just me and these […]

It all started with a rumor last week at the barbershop. Nick Anthe’s was closing. Hubby came home bearing the news. “You’re kidding!”, I said. “I don’t get it…where are we going to go for our celebrations?” Nick Anthe’s restaurant has been legendary in Akron’s history of restaurants and one of THE places to go […]

Please Note: This is not a recipe to start today and eat tonight. It takes two days to get to the finish line. It’s something to do while you’re doing everything else. Trust me…it’s worth the wait! I am having a love affair with beets these days. I used to HATE beets…those slimy red things […]
