I served this salad as a base for cornish game hens roasted in pomegranate molasses and sumac and it was fantastic. It’s a natural accompaniment to the fowl and the dressing is lip smacking delicious. You could use any winter squash here. I’ve used butternut,…
It’s pumpkin month. And, yes, this post is late. Again. Even I’m rolling my eyes. And I’ve been basically absent for the entire summer. Even though my kid is grown, I know those of you with kids still in school can relate to how busy…
*Disclaimer*….I had this post written and ready to go before I went off the rails for the summer. Rather than hang onto it for a year, I’m posting it. Yes, yes, it’s late. But we still have watermelon coming out of the farms here and…
I’m a cookie person as far as dessert goes. Ok, a cookie and cake person. Alright fine! I’m a cookie, cake, and brownie person. Happy? Geeze! As cookies go, however, peanut butter cookies are my least favorite. They’re just so….plain. I like a snazzy cookie. …

Yes, I know. Lately it’s been all things pork. Well we have a lot of pig! Thanks Jessie! Not that I’m complaining. And I certainly never get tired of pork. So, if you’re sick of pork then just go away. Because you’re raining on my…
I’m late. Again. In more ways than you know. Ha! Ok, enough about my meno. When I’m not sweating, I’m freezing. I’m over it. I’m over so many things. Like dishes. I think every single parent knows the perils of cooking at home when it…
I have a bit of a condiment problem. I collect, covet, and borderline hoard condiments. I’m often heard exclaiming about a found bottle of catsup or whatever that I thought I was out of. Vinegars? I got twenty. Oils? So many. Hot sauces? All of…
