  • Recipe 100!
    100!
    Yep. This is my 100th post. This came around FAST. I didn’t know what I wanted this post to be about. I toyed with the idea of making it a Best of, or maybe a My Fave recipes. In the end, I decided to go back to the beginning. The beginning of[...]
  • Recipe A year later
    A year later
    I still find it to be: Fun. Exciting. Interesting. Funny. A learning experience. Worth waking up in the morning. Challenging in all the right ways. Rewarding. Last week made a year since The Hubbz and I said *I do* and it’s been a year filled[...]
  • Recipe Más tomates!
    Más tomates!
    I do love tomatoes. In Panama, my sister and I used to eat them like fruit. I remember how flavorful they are when picked just right. Slightly tart and sweet, always juicy. YUM! I love the different varieties: cherry, grape, here recently I’ve[...]
  • Recipe Potato, Potahto
    Potato, Potahto
    Not really a vegetable, more of a root or tuber, but definitely a great ingredient for side dishes. I love to combine them with bacon of course, onions and butter. In no particular order. This is one of my favorite ways to put them together. Quick,[...]

    Summer = Salads!
    I have to be honest. I don’t love salads. When it comes to eating them, I’m very persnickety. I’m not embarrassed to admit it, even though I should be. I guess. I have all sorts of rules and regulations when it comes to the green[...]

  • Recipe I heart Cooking channel!
    I heart Cooking channel!
    I do. I really, really do. It’s like meeting new friends and catching up with old ones. I know it is still part of the Food Network, but I like the variety of chefs on the lineup. I hope you’re watching it too, there’s some really[...]
  • Recipe Chicken and Gravy, but wait?
    Chicken and Gravy, but wait?
    There’s more! I’ll tell you in a minute, first, humor me. I was down to the last chicken breast I purchased for the V-Day recipes and I didn’t know what to do with it. I had the chicken and some asparagus left. You may remember I[...]
  • Recipe Is there a Leek in the house?
    Is there a Leek in the house?
    Leeks are new to me, at least I think they are. I was updating my mom with the menu for last weekend’s Foodbuzz event and she mentioned I did use leeks in Panama. She knows everything, but I’m not sure about this little fact.[...]
