Originally published on June 5, 2017 The weather hasn’t been all that cooperative for those of us around these parts that would like to start grilling, but that hasn’t stopped us either. And they say that sunnier days are in the forecast – hopefully for many months to come – so that means the grills […]

Loaded Baked Potato Soup
Originally published on June 14, 2017 This is a soup I used to make at the restaurant all the time because it’s so very easy and takes no time at all to pull together. The secret is to use leftover mashed potatoes. After that, all you really have to do is fry up some bacon, grate some […]
The Classic Bloody Mary
Originally published on June 23, 2017 I have always been fascinated by the classic cocktail, Bloody Mary. It’s not so much about the actual drink, or even the liquor in it, but all of those yummy garnishes that stick out of the top of the glass. Of course, it all started with just a celery stalk but […]
Chocolate Pudding
Originally published on July 10, 2017 It has been a busy time lately! I’ve been moving, unpacking, getting a new house organized and of course, working so I can still keep my job throughout it all. Before the big move, there was a lot of takeout going on, as we used up all our food and didn’t […]
Rice Balls (Arancini)
Originally published on July 24, 2017 I had my first rice balls about a year ago.

We picked up a bunch of good stuff, along […]
Prosciutto and Broccoli Quiche

But when you put cheese, beef, and tomatoes together, there are truly endless possibilities! This recipe for Taco Egg Rolls does away […]
How to Make Cloud Eggs
Originally published September 5, 2017 Those who know me well know that if I’m pressed to give an opinion about the one perfect food in this world, my answer would be eggs. Every. Single. Time. It used to be due to the fact that there’s just so much that can be done with eggs. You can […]
Pork Chops with Garlic Scape Chimichurri
Originally published on September 11, 2017 It’s September and in my corner of the world, the time for the Farmer’s Market is running out. It’s something I think about every year, but this time will be especially disappointing, as the girls and I have enjoyed our weekly walks down to the market (and the walk […]
Chicken Noodle Bowl
Originally published on September 19, 2017 Ever since I quit smoking (going on seven months now!) I’ve become semi-obsessed with fitness. I’ve stepped up my aerobic game, literally, and I’ve started keeping track of everything I eat with My Fitness Pal. This free app is great. Not only will it track all of your calories that […]
