Corn Bread Stuffing

I have this weird thing about cold food.  I don't really like it all that much.  Especially when it is cold leftovers! There is something about the smell that just turns my stomach.  Something that smells absolutely delicious when hot (pizza, pasta, soup, the list goes on...) will be ...

POM-Cider Glazed Pork Chops

Beef Stew with Cinnamon and Yams

Last week we had a few of those quintessential fall days. You know the ones - sunny with crisp cool air during the day and chilly nights that are perfect for snuggling up with an extra blanket on your bed. Fall days always make me want a hearty, warming dinner. My ...

Friday Favorites – Episode 28

The cooler weather (dare I even say cold weather?) this week has me in the mood to do some fall baking.  For some reason, in my mind, I associate fall with baking.  I suppose that's because the fall leads into Thanksgiving and then the Christmas season, and I always ...
