I hit it out of the park tonight….with such a simple recipe. One of my life long’s dreams is to get Hubby to appreciate Brussels sprouts. Try as I may, my attempts never registered on his “yum” meter. He basically would eat them out of obligation with maybe a grunt of recognition. No grunts tonight….only […]
If I had to make one thing for my Hubby for the rest of his life – it would be peas. Preferably peas and pasta. With the spring vegetables sneaking into the farmer’s markets and grocery stores, fresh peas have made an appearance, and I have been searching for a new peas and pasta recipe. […]
What is it about Sunday nights? Every Sunday night, I try to make up for the sins of the week. Oh – and this week was sinful. We had our 3 5-year old grandsons for 2 days and it was pizza, hamburgers, more pizza and bacon. What was I supposed to do? Eat yogurt when […]

Have you tried Quinoa (kween wa) yet? Oh, you should! Don’t be afraid…it’s a wonderful grain with an interesting texture but so many nutritional […]

Come Monday, you’re gonna wake up and open the refrigerator to confront ALL THOSE EGGS! Now what? Here’s an easy, flexible recipe for everyone’s favorite – deviled eggs. Adjust […]
I know what you’re thinking… Stuffing recipe, really? Thanksgiving’s gone and we’re all ‘stuffed’ out… I’m writing today’s post for me for I know I will lose the recipe if I don’t write about it. After the fabulous meal at my sister’s house on Thanksgiving, I decided to make a turkey breast over the weekend […]
