Easter is Sunday! Yikes! I’m not too sure if I like it to be this early, but I guess there is no choice in the matter. Anyway, I thought I would put up a Easter recipe roundup in case you are having guests, like me, or are visiting and in charge of bringing a dish. [...]
So this past Saturday T.J. took G for a play date with her cousins in New Jersey. I had the majority of the day to myself and I was TOLD to be lazy. Lazy doesn’t really fit my type A personality, but I think I succeeded even though I did some laundry. So, they were [...]
I mentioned before my affection for all things cupcakes. I have a pretty special place in my heart for Cool Whip products and especially their new line of frosting. Well, today, on a very snowy New York day I recieved a special delivery from Cool Whip and Kraft foods. A delivery of assorted cupcakes! Talk [...]
While following one of my fellow blogger Mama’s on Instagram last week I saw that she had posted this picture of lasagna in the crock pot. I’m pretty old fashioned when it come to lasagna, so I was skeptical. I cook my sauce all day from scratch, buy the finest ingredients, put it all together [...]
My brother-in-law makes the most fab cocktails. He was a bar tender a long time ago…in his younger days. LOL.

I already shared this one with you, but here is another! cranberry smash ingredients: 2 oz. cranberry-infused gin [...]

I thought it would be fun to come up with a list of items that are “must haves” for the home chef! I have a slew of gadgets, gizmos, and utensils in my arsenal and get a rush when I enter a store like William’s Sonoma or Sur Le Table. KitchenAid Artisan Design 5-Quart Stand [...]

My brother in law does the majority of the cooking in his New Jersey household. He is a top notch banker, but to de-stress, he likes to put his culinary skills to the test. He is always sharing his recipes with me and this one I just had to share. The recipe originates on AllRecipies.com, [...]
T.J. and I were so excited to see Chipotle open in Rhode Island a few years back. Since we moved to New York there isn’t one close to us. I had to get creative and make something that would be just like our favorite chicken burrito bowls. Honestly, I think these are better! Chipotle Inspired [...]
