After 11 hours of sleep last night (unheard of in my world), I awoke not only feeling about 80% myself, but also to discover two of my children feeling ill as well. So a day I hoped to spend making cookies and pomegranate jam, turned into a day of well tested remedies and hopefully the […]

December 17, 2010 By 12 Comments
Gourmet chocolates have brought us all kinds of zany combinations. Chocolate covered fruit, gummy bears, peppermint sticks or even biscotti…each and every combination has its own unique taste and texture, each just as exquisite as the next. Nearly two years ago I had my first taste of pepper infused chocolate with a hint of sea […]

Fudge. Melt in your mouth piece of heaven. I have been making fudge for more years than I care to admit to and fell in love with what has, in recent years, been dubbed “five minute” fudge more than 20 years ago. No doubt you have seen similar recipes. Rachel Ray shared her version […]

Have you ever had those weeks where it feels as if you have not had the opportunity to sit but for a moment the entire week? For me, it seems as if I will scarcely have a moment to sit this entire month, then I realized earlier today that this month is somewhat of a […]

As much as I love turkey, even I grow tired of the same ole same ole following several days worth of leftovers. Sure, potpie, hot open-faced sandwiches or even cold turkey sandwiches are all great…but what if I just really don’t want another obviously turkey dish? In steps my favorite left-over solution.
