I’ve been on a mushroom kick as of late. Around Christmas time I baked a delightful Pork Welly – and Brian mentioned his favorite part was the mushroom shallot layer. Then, just a few days following, Valerie cooked us a delicious Mushroom Sherry Soup. Again, Brian commented on how he adores mushrooms and was hoping…

Lasagna always sounds good, doesn’t it? Layers and layers of goodness, sandwiched between the ultimate: cheese. Yum! It doesn’t always have to be Italian themed either, you know.

Remember how in France I fell in love with the ultimate combo of almond butter, cheese, and chocolate? Well, now it’s time to skip the chocolate (or save that for dessert) and whip up a salient…

Sure?” Last fall, as our yard was being landscaped, I was offered blackcurrant bushes for both the decorative, and homemade jam, culinary purposes.

My hubby absolutely adores Buffalo Chicken anything. Whether it be a buffalo chicken salad, a buffalo chicken wrap, a buffalo chicken sammy, or even a buffalo chicken pizza, he’s in heaven. Me, on the other hand, I’d never even experienced “buffalo chicken” before meeting this man of my dreams. While he still remains dreamy –…
