It’s rare for me to make up a recipe as I go along, but I was feeling very secure ….in a culinary way and decided to go for it. I was looking at a handful of beautiful ingredients and decided I couldn’t go wrong putting them all together somehow. I had fresh shrimp, beautiful asparagus from an … Continue reading
Before I even begin this blog post, I’m going to ask you to go to the archives and check out “Crab Sauce over Spaghetti.” That recipe is the real deal. However, it’s a lot more involved than this one. Also, eating the dish prepared that way is quite a laborious and messy task. My husband would say it’s … Continue reading
At least once or twice a year, for the past 35 years , my friend Bev sends me a recipe in the mail (never email) that she absolutely knows I will love. She is always 100% correct! I have loved every recipe she has sent me, and they have over the years become “family favorites” … Continue reading
With the celebration of Labor Day over and done, I turn my sights to the Holidays. Well, not really, but they will be here before you know it. Don’t worry….I’m not going to start posting holiday recipes for some time to come. I’m still grilling and enjoying the summer bounty. However, when I was asked … Continue reading
Finally…..I have my kitchen back! It looks beautiful. I’m absolutely in love with my appliances. However, I need a PhD in “Appliance Use and Cleaning.” Seriously, I have about 4 hours of tedious reading to do before I will feel comfortable using them.

I have another wonderful recipe for you to make with our meaty and delicious Jersey crabs. I am especially fond of this recipe because not only is light and tasty, but it also brings friends and family together around the table for several hours. It takes time to break open the crabs and dig in … Continue reading

I’m sure you’re salivating right now just thinking about the sausage and peppers sandwiches, pizza, zeppole, clams on the half, Kohl’s custard…and the list goes on and on. … Continue reading
Happy 2016! I hope you all enjoyed the holiday season and are now ready to repent by making the number one New Year’s resolution to change all your eating habits and get healthy! This always makes me laugh. Why must we make this resolution year after year? Why must we be tormented with advertisements from … Continue reading
\ Pardon my absence, for those of you who noticed. I like to say that I’ve been traveling in search of recipes to share. Research is very important! Ha ha!! This recipe for Spaghetti Alle Vongole, was “researched” about 25 years ago on my first trip to Italy. We were to visit the Amalfi Coast, … Continue reading
With Christmas Eve just around the corner, I start counting my fishes. I count my blessings as well, but Christmas Eve is all about fish….seven different types of fish, to be exact. So I begin planning our menu for this feast of feasts…the mother of all feasts. Most Italian families consider Christmas Eve to be … Continue reading
