Originally published on December 1, 2017 One of my very good friends that I’ve known since public school helped me make this soup when I went home last for a visit. As we were making it she told me that she had made potato soup before, but had never considered adding a little bit of sweet potato to […]

Santa Veggie Tray
Originally posted on December 7, 2017 Having a big holiday party this year? Don’t you dare buy one of those prepackaged veggie trays that are overpriced and well, let’s face it, a little boring. Not when you can get super creative and make a Santa veggie tray instead! This is one that I did for a family […]
Caprese Salad Wreath
Originally published on December 20, 2017 The holidays can sure be stressful. So I guess it’s a good thing that we have all the wonderful food surrounding us to help us forget about those long lines, the many Christmas presents we still have to buy, and all the other stuff that goes with the holidays. But just […]
Figs Stuffed with Goat Cheese
Originally published on December 28, 2017 Fresh figs are really hard to find around here. I’m sure if they were more accessible, I’d make them (and eat them!) a whole lot more than I do now. They’re one of those fruits that is almost like candy to eat, but so much better. I made these […]
Sheila’s Marinade
Originally published on January 9, 2018 So, I’m not very big on the idea of “New Year, new me” because I think the old me is pretty good. But, after the holidays every year, I do try to eat a little cleaner and a little lighter – for at least a few weeks. I heard […]

The other night for dinner I was staring into my pantry trying to come up with an idea that would go well with […]
Honey Garlic Chicken Skewers
Originally published on March 19, 2018 Hello again! Things get so busy sometimes and unfortunately, I can’t always do everything all the time. So, at the beginning of the year I took a little hiatus from the blog. But I am back and ready to have at ‘er! I hope you are too, because while […]
Flank Steak with Tomatoes and Basil
Originally published on March 24, 2018 Sometimes I know what flavors I want to eat, but I don’t know how I want to put them together. When that is the case, I often find that going simple is best. And those usually turn out to be the best kind of meals. This Flank Steak with Tomatoes […]
Maple Roasted Root Vegetables
Originally published on March 28, 2018 Well it’s Maple Syrup Season up in the Great White North, and now is the time I usually start putting maple syrup into anything I touch. Maple Syrup Season is an exciting time. It’s the first real crop of the season because, in my area, it’s still really too cold […]
Easy Lo Mein
Originally published on April 9, 2018 I love noodles, especially Chinese noodles that are coated in a salty, fatty sauce. I would always choose noodles over rice and they may be even easier to make, as you’ll see in this Easy Lo Mein recipe. You can add even more vegetables or protein such as chicken or tofu […]
