CRAB CAKE EGG ROLLS WITH CHILI DIPPING SAUCE
We have spent most of the Spring and Summer in Ocean City, Maryland. The majority of our time was spent on re-vamping an old mobile home. It belonged to my husbands parents for years. In fact, it’s been 20 years since they sold it. I can tell you it’s a good thing walls can’t talk!…

CHEESESTEAK stuffed peppers
I recently posted this meal on IG and FB. I had a lot of requests to post the recipe so here it is! It is very waist friendly by the way. If you’re doing WW or Keto, this is a good one. It’s also a good time of year to make it since peppers are…

Zero point CHEESECAKE WITH STRAWBERRY CRUNCH TOPPING
Over the years I have been a WW member and follow their program. COVID hit and I got hit like Santa with a fat suit. I mean seriously….all I did was cook, eat, and drink a lot of wine. Then reality smacks ya in the face. With summer just around the corner I decided to…

ARUBA…..WHERE IT FIRST BEGAN
Admittedly, it’s been a while since I have posted anything. We are back in Aruba and I’m feeling nostalgic since this is where I began my blog in 2017. I have actually been working on my cookbook. I also have a new career after retiring from nursing. I have set a goal of April –…

SPINACH LASAGNA
It’s cloudy and rainy here, and it’s Monday. I was in the mood for something warm and yummy. I haven’t made this lasagna in a while. I have, however, been making this particular recipe for about 30 years. I found it years ago and over the years I have tweaked it to my taste. It’s…

homemade MARSHMALLOWS covered in Chocolate
Well, 2020 has really been one for the books. I don’t know about you but I am looking forward to 2021. Here we are, and it’s Christmas time once again. There’s something about putting up a tree and decorating the house that makes life a lot more tolerable. My favorite thing to do is bake…

apple cider doughnuts
It’s finally here….October! It’s fall and it’s my favorite time of year. In truth, I am just a cooler, cold weather person. I love the briskness and the scent of clean air. Not to mention I have always liked winter recipes much more than summer recipes. Let’s face it, comfort food is at it’s best…

BAKED EGGPLANT STACKS (original post 7/24/2018)
I wanted to bring this recipe back around. Eggplant is readily available this time of year. As luck would have it I was gifted a sackful of them. They can be found at most farm-stands or your local grocer. They can be white or purple skinned. I prefer those gorgeous, purple skinned, beauties. This recipe…

Pesto at the Point!
We are at the Cambridge house this weekend. Prepping and planning and getting her ready for sale. It’s been a great house with a lot of memories. I am sure our next home will be just as memorable. Although, this one will be difficult to beat. Here on the shore it’s another steamy, hot, unbearable,…

MARINATED PORK LOIN
Have you ever thought of someone from the past? Maybe wondered where they were or what became of them? If your honest, your answer is yes. How quick did that thought materialize or become reality? Did you reach out or did you ignore it? Does it frighten you or does it make you happy? I…
