You Can’t Curry Love
Wait for it. Wait for it. Wait for it. All good things come to those who wait? Is that true? Do you mind when you have to wait for something? Or do you do whatever is in your power to make things happen NOW? I’m a pretty patient person when it comes to waiting. I
Keeping It Real
I love to make recipes from different areas of the world. I feel even though I may have never been to very many places, I can get a taste of what the natives are eating. (Unless there are areas where natives are eating natives, I won’t do that.) I sometimes am hesitant to write about
Coming Out of My Shell in 2017
First, let me apologize for not posting for the last week or so. With the holiday bustle (and a husband who was home from work….A LOT), my quiet time alone with my computer pretty much disappeared. (Hubby is home now too…but I’m ignoring him.) I had a good holiday but honestly I am just ready
Preserving Memories
“When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.” I have always loved that saying. Every now and then, you get handed things that may not be what you currently desire but you just have to make the most of it. Lately, my plate has been full (and not in the fun fill my tummy kind of
Tzatziki Sauce: A Consonant Friend
One of my favorite things to do with friends is catch up over lunch or coffee. Our conversations usually cover the usually topics of hubbys, kids (theirs) and food (mine). The other day during one of these wonderful catch up sessions, we started talking about things to put on a burger. (Yep, we are that
National Grilled Cheese Month
Hooray! It is starting to feel like spring. The birds are chirping like crazy, the grass is greening up and rumor has it there are some baby bunnies hopping around our neighborhood. (I can’t wait to see the bunnies!) Another big sign of spring is seeing all the stuff you should have gotten done around
Time is a Changin’ Mac and Cheese
Change. People really have a hard time accepting change. Adjusting to something out of the ordinary seems to throw most people off balance. (I say off balance because it is nicer than calling people crazy.) The time change this weekend is a big one for a lot of people. There are certain people in my
Bon Appétit Cook The Cover-February 2014
Zoiks!!! I am cutting it close this month. I’ve been doing great keeping my New Year’s Resolutions but I almost let February slip by without cooking the cover of the February Bon Appétit. I will admit I was procrastinating on this one. It was not that Chicken and Dumplings with Mushrooms wasn’t appealing to me.
Chumbo
Brrrrr!!!! If you don’t live in the Midwest, I consider you lucky right now. The last two days have been filled with incredible amounts of snow and wickedly low temperatures. It is so cold…..how cold is it…it is so cold that we are eating with plastic silverware so that our forks won’t stick to our
My First Festivus
Are you happy that the holidays are over? I am. To put it mildly, I was a super sourpuss this year. Was it because I was naughty and I knew Santa would be skipping my chimney this year? Noooo. Was it because I have Scrooge genes coursing through my blood? Noooo. (Okay, there is a
