I am alone again for lunch. Oh, time to make beans. I can not feed my husband beans. I won’t go into the details. But I love beans. This is my mom’s creation. She lives on this meal. It makes a quick easy lunch for one and adapts [...]

Cookie verdict

So the real test of a good cookie is the next day after you make it. Geeze, anything with hot, melting chocolate is good right out of the oven. This last batch I made was the best so far. They are so close to tasting just like the gluten variety I made [...]

Rosemary Love

If there’s one thing that will make your cooking better, that’s using fresh herbs. Adding fresh herbs to dishes makes even the most simplest of food taste and look so much better. During the summer, I always have herbs growing in the garden. It’s something I miss all winter. So in [...]
