Many of us were raised on Mother Goose – sweet nursery rhymes and childrens’ songs that are at least a couple hundred years old. They were sung to us with safety, comfort, warmth, and love in the arms of our parents. Nursery rhymes cause wonderful memories that we want to pass along to our children.

Simple Shrimp Scampi
I have always been a sucker for seafood. One of the beauties of traveling is experiencing the freshest local catch – prepared simply, and served steaming hot.
Power Balls – Energy on the Go
I like to daydream about winning the lottery — how I would choose to spend and give away the money, and how winning wouldn’t change who I am. But alas, I’ve never purchased a lottery ticket in my life. And record Power Ball winnings pale in comparison to these little gems!
Swedish Meatballs with Cream Sauce (Kötbullar med Gräddsås)
As I was digging through the cupboard last week, I stumbled across my grandmother’s recipe box. There are memories attached to many of those recipes!

Just by the way the question is posed, you can probably guess which type of “pancaker” I am. Actually, I would choose waffles any day over pancakes — mostly … Read more Fluffy Gluten Free Pancakes

I love Springtime. And Autumn. And Winter. And Summer.

Gluten Free Coffee Cake
Saturday. Sleeping late. Brunch. Family. Relaxing. Traditions. I’m all over that! At the end of a crazy, stressful week, there just isn’t anything better than a calm morning with delicious treats.
Beef Oysters
NO!!! These are not what you are thinking! Get your mind out of the gutter, and focus on this tasty, easy, inexpensive, fun treat. My mother was the master of frugal meals. She would serve our family of 5 on a tight budget so that we could travel and have adventures during summer vacation — … Read more Beef Oysters
Simple Pork Carbonara
There are times that I plan on leftovers. And there are times that I dread leftovers. Reheating the same old meal can get . . . . . . . . . . OLD. But when the leftovers can be completely reinvented into something incredible, then I start digging through the refrigerator and freezer, hoping … Read more Simple Pork Carbonara
