I’m really behind on my blogging here, but I’ve been super busy. As I’m cooking I’m capturing photos, but not remembering a lot of the details but here’s what I can remember and it’s totally worth whatever I can remember because it was yummy! That phrase a picture is worth a thousand words is my…

Summer BBQ’s beckon some spice. Cornbread that will have you craving for another slice…
Wow it’s been awhile since I’ve posted on here… so while I am collecting ideas on my next postings, this one was easy enough to do. Since my last posting I got a new job at a company I love and did some traveling to Florida, UK and Germany (for the first time). Sadly I…
One can of pineapple transforms- pizza that sizzles and dessert that satisfies
I love pizza. There I said it. I admit it. I could eat it often. But I don’t because well we all know the reasons why- it’s not healthy or good for you to do that. And I’ve rarely like “order-in” pizza- with the exception of Paxties in SF- but that’s expensive and takes a…
Missing ketchup or mustard for your burger- avocados, olive oil, balsamic… to the rescue
I’m on the road to socal and enjoying my beautiful trip. Nothing like a roadtrip to clear your mind and also inspire you. While I take no credit for the lovely feast of burgers and salad my lovely hosts prepared, I was able to add a bit of help to the mix. We realized after the…

Realistic everyday chicken for one or many- never boring and always juicy
With the buzz of Gwyneth Paltrow’s 1 bird 3 meals, I thought I’d simplify it down a bit assuming like most of us you are using those lovely packets of individual boneless, skinless breasts you buy at Costco or TJoes. And I’ll also confess that I had one experience I will never forget, making the dreaded…
When you don’t have a plan- sundried tomato lobster delivers
Last minute toss together. Seriously had no idea what I was going to cook after being at it all day working on a website and as I started to raid the kitchen, I remember I had bought (randomly) some langostino lobster tails while at Costco (you know how those things somehow get in your cart)….
Grilled Vegetables- it’s what’s left in the fridge
Grilled vegetables, it’s what’s left in the fridge. Tomatoes, squash, snap peas, onion, kale, peppers, potatoes in spanish olive oil, crushed red pepper, tjoes everything seasoning, sea salt and pepper. Fresh pretty and deliciously healthy. Great way to not let the veges go to waste and they held their flavor for over a week stored…
