It’s been a while, and if you’ve been wondering where I’ve been, let me explain. I’ve been on a mission to find the perfect meatball to share with you. I’ve missed you, but trust me, you will be happy I took on this task. I used to think I made a great meatball. I was praised far and … Continue reading
This is one of my favorite recipes, as it was given to me from a friend, along with the actual pork chops to be cooked! Yes, she delivered the pork chops, and a delicious suggestion of how to make them. How lucky could I get??!! I should explain the “cult following” that these pork chops … Continue reading
When I look at my herb garden on the deck, I can’t help but be saddened at the passing of summer. A few plants are still hearty, but others are slowly turning yellow and brown, soon to be a thing of the past. The heartiest by far is the mint. The mint struggled all summer … Continue reading
At this time of year, you’ll see a plethora of extra large zucchini at your farmer’s market or even in some supermarkets. I’m always happy to see these large, green squash because I immediately think about stuffing them. It was just about this time of year, many decades ago, when our neighbors, the Sandersons, would … Continue reading

Who doesn’t love a big, greasy sausage and peppers sandwich on an Italian roll? Well, me for one. While others sigh as they bite into an oil-soaked, crusty roll, making sure they get a piece of sausage and some peppers and onions in each bite, I look on in wonderment. How many sausage and peppers … Continue reading
September signifies a new year to me. It is a new academic year for students and teachers. It’s a new year for families, with summer vacations behind them, they settle back into routines and look toward the future. For me, it has always meant the return to schedules…… packing school lunches, driving to school and … Continue reading
How can a recipe for liver hold fond memories? For me, it does. As odd as it may seem, I vividly recall how happy I was each time liver was for dinner. It was sort of a treat, if you can deem that possible. Perhaps it was the way in which my mother prepared it … Continue reading
I recently saw the movie “One Hundred Foot Journey,” and smiled when I heard the lead character, who was brought up cooking with his mother in a family restaurant in India say, “food is memories.” I couldn’t agree more. That has been the main idea behind this blog. With each recipe or aroma, I have … Continue reading
