I should start this post by saying that my husband would like to name this dish, “Mouthwatering Blackberry Crisp”. He says that the smell of it baking in the oven makes your mouth water, and I have to admit that I agree! But, as you know, around here I like to keep things…

Rigatoni with Roasted Broccoli and Red Onions
I found this recipe while paging through the February issue of Woman’s Day. The bright colors of the vegetables caught my attention, and then the recipe list did, because I surprisingly had everything on hand! So, I added it to my weekly menu plan. I am so glad that I did, because it…
Simple Vanilla Bean Pudding
When I find myself with an excess of milk on hand, I like to look for ways to use it before the expiration date approaches. You can freeze it to use later for cooking or baking, but not for drinking or cereal. I’d much rather whip up something delicious! Some of my favorite…
Coffee Cake Muffins
Whenever we had Chicken Noodle Soup growing up, it was usually accompanied by either blueberry muffins or cinnamon muffins.

Caramel & Rum Fondue
We recently attended a Halloween party at our friends’ house. I always like to bring something along for everyone to munch on, but for this particular party, I was having a tough time deciding what to bring. “What should I bring?” I asked my husband. “Caramel!” he responds. I was caught off guard,…
Restaurant-Style Salsa
Another dip, you say? Absolutely! If you’re serving up some yummy guacamole, the perfect accompanying dip is homemade salsa! This is so simple to throw together, and can be adapted to your tastes. We love cilantro, so there’s a big handful in ours. Like it hot? Toss in another jalapeno. Have fun experimenting…
Chele’s Guacamole
My sister, Rachele, spent two years in the Dominican Republic with the Peace Corp. She did lots of amazing things while she was there, and learned a few things too. Our favorite thing that she learned? How to make amazing guacamole!
