Souper DILL-ema

Happy Easter!!!  I’m sure many of you have spent the day working hard in your kitchens making your family’s favorite holiday meal.  (Or if you don’t celebrate Easter, you enjoyed the crowdless malls and movie theatres!) Either way, Monday is right around the corner and it is time to figure out something easy to make …

Sunshiney Tuna Tartare

I miss brightness in the winter.  I don’t necessarily mean the beaming sun.  (I do miss it a little.)  And I am not referring to intelligence but I do think we get stupider this time of year.  (Wait, stupider is not a word but it does prove a point.  Or is it word?) I’m talking …
