I love recipes. I have a cookbook addiction and I probably get 6-7 cooking magazines every month. I love food, and I love great recipes. Here you’ll find some great options to put a quick meal on the table, or a great recipe for Sunday dinner or entertaining. I live in a fairly rural area, and our grocery stores don’t promote gourmand tastes. Simple ingredients, great and easy techniques, lead to fabulous meals. Give them a try and please feel free to leave a comment!

I have never made it a secret. I love Asian food. Stir fry, dumplings, rice – pretty much any kind that is not fish or seafood, I’ll try. I like making it at home rather than buying it. It tastes better, costs less, and you can make a small, inexpensive cut of meat stretch a long […]
We are big fans of cranberry orange walnut bread here – and while perusing Pinterest during a recent outpatient procedure recover, I came across this Cranberry Bread recipe that features pecans – another fave – and had to try it. This was a pretty simple quick bread, and tasty. I kind of missed the orange […]
