Hey Family and Friends: It’s been a long time since I’ve posted any recipes and I just wanted to share something I came across and made this evening – Apple Cider Pound Cake. Many of you know that I’ve made traditional pound cakes over the years but never this one…. YUM – it smells so good and taste delicious. I’ve added the link below if you’d like to try. Enjoy!

Well, it’s been a long time since I’ve posted anything under food however, I know I’m not alone in trying new things to make tasty meals – we’re in an innovative time. Everybody knows I love soups and I came across Tomato & Eggplant soup by Ina Garten of Barefoot Contessa (I love her recipes). It always grabs my attention when I come across combinations I would have never thought to do for a soup. Let me show you how…
This looked so cute; I had to try to make it. It actually ended up being quite easy, especially since I cheated and didn’t make my crust from scratch. (smile) The recipe includes cooked chopped spinach, mixed with ricotta and parmesan cheese. The tricky part is how to make the actual “sunny” look.

Well, once again a photo grabbed my attention. Believe it or not I came across a recipe called Pumpkin Biscotti. You heard it right….Pumpkin Biscotti. Now, I don’t know if I got some true Biscotti fans online but I was not a great fan simply because there were always so dry and hard (smile). However I know a lot of folks like to use them to dip in a cup of coffee or tea but I still thought they were…
African Chicken Peanut Stew The one thing I love about the winter season is my ability to make all kinds of soups and stews (even though I make them all the time) but there’s something about sitting down – snuggled on the couch, with a steamy hot bowl of soup, accompanied by a toasted slice of French or Italian bread, (crackers if you must :-). This scenario just shouts comfort and warm fuzzy in my tummy. Well, as usual, a…
Hello again, I’m in the kitchen and as I said earlier, if I see something pretty or unusual…I’ve got to try to make it. I don’t even remember what I was looking at that brought me to see this recipe but it caught my eye and you guessed it….I went to the store and got the ingredients. I don’t know about you but I do love cheesecakes and I’ve been known to make some awesome combinations myself (e.g. coffee and…
Well, here’s my first food post. Anyone that knows me knows I love to cook and I particularly like to try new things, especially if the presentation is pretty. I love to watch the FOOD channel and yesterday the Pioneer Woman caught my attention in making what she called a ‘Heavenly Hummus Wrap”. Now, know that hummus is not the most exciting thing to me however I’ve never made my own so I ventured forth. Well, I must say it…
