  • Lion House Rolls

    I’m a bread girl. Since I was little I would fill up my plate with all kinds of bread and rolls when I was at a buffet. From an early age, I learned to love the flavors and textures of dark pumpernickel, rich brioche, rustic baguettes, airy ciabatta, sweet pan dulce, or any kind of bread. This Thanksgiving…

  • Sweet Potato Casserole

    Thanksgiving is over, the dishes are done, and even the leftovers are gone. This year I did something a little adventurous (or maybe crazy or even brave) and, with the exception of the turkey and my mother-in-law’s dressing, I made our entire Thanksgiving meal from Pinterest recipes. This is the first of the Thanksgiving Pintesting…

  • Pintesting the Best of Italy with Pizza

    October is NATIONAL PIZZA MONTH! Did you know this? I didn’t until the month was nearly over.  I’ve wanted to do a pizza recipe post for quite some time but with so many unique kinds of pizza, I wasn’t sure which would be the best one to start with. There’s the Neapolitan style Margherita, the…

  • 7-Layer Greek Dip

    Going to the movies is fun, but there are some downsides to seeing a film at the theater. I don’t like the overpriced snacks. I like real butter on my popcorn rather than that bright yellow butter-flavored oil. No wine. The theater folks frown upon patrons coming in their pajamas and slippers. Oh, and they won’t…

  • Pintesting Salmon Wellington

    If you’re a foodie or have watched TV in the last decade, then you’ve likely heard Gordon Ramsay yelling at the contestants on his reality show, Hell’s Kitchen.  After watching for many years and seasons, one thing that I learned is that you can’t be considered a serious cook unless you can make an excellent…

  • BLT Lettuce Wraps (No-Carb BLT)

    Sometimes I get things that look amazing as an impulse purchase. Some people might be tempted by a cute pair of shoes, a new outfit, or the latest tech gadget. More often than not, my impulse buys are food related. I see a recipe that sounds good and I’m off to the store, and that’s what…

  • Tuscan Lentil Soup

    There is something very comforting about soup; it seems to nourish your soul as it feeds your body. You’ve never heard of a book series called, “Chicken Casserole for the Soul.” Don’t get me wrong, I love casseroles, but there’s just something about soup. Tuscan Lentil Soup. Most soups fall into one of two categories:…

  • Pintesting The Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookie

    When I was a college freshman living 700 miles away from home and “independent” for the first time in my life, I felt that I was seriously underfunded – as most freshmen do. I had a nice dorm room with a great roommate, a cafeteria card that would provide all the cafeteria food that I…

  • Easy Cheeseburger Sliders

    The other day was National Hamburger Day. Who comes up with these “holidays”? Well, thank you to whomever, because even though I’m not a huge carnivore, I LOVE a good burger. Burgers are like pizza in that there are so many different ways to approach them: big and juicy, stuffed with fillings, thin with a…

  • Pintesting Weave Your Bacon BLT

    Sometimes less is more, and there is a lot of minimalist going on lately. (Wait. Is that an oxymoron?) Tiny houses are all the rage right now. Have you seen them? They look like glorified tree houses, or doll houses on steroids. They’re so cute, but I can’t live in a house that’s smaller than…
