Bob’s Raspberry Punch

Bob's Raspberry Punch

My sister-in-law’s father is a big man in the kitchen.  He can cook and create dishes like the best of them.  I would love to see him compete on Hell’s Kitchen or one of these chef/cooking shows.  I know he would finish at the top. Bob makes a lovely punch each time our families get together.  [...]

Mom’s Shrimp Dip

Mom's Shrimp Dip

Yesterday I was craving dips and snacks and anything I could simply graze upon for the afternoon.  Rainy, lazy Sunday afternoons will do that to you.  One dip in particular I wanted was my Mom’s shrimp dip.  As many of you have read, about 10 years ago I developed insane food allergies that require me [...]

Green Fizz

Green Fizz

It’s been a long week.  Nothing extraordinary, but rather too many small things that have now become overwhelming as I review them collectively.  Yikes!  What is a girl to do?  Take a bath and enjoy a nice adult beverage.  Here is one I enjoy sipping while in the tub.  Maybe you will as well.
