    Greek Chicken Meatloaf {with Spinach & Feta}

    December 30, 2014 / 29 Comments

    I’m rather proud of our Greek Chicken Meatloaf with Spinach & Feta recipe.   We use ground chicken, which on its own is fairly bland.  No worries.  Here’s how we bring full blown flavor to this dish.

    Eggs Florentine {Happy Hollandaise}

    December 28, 2014 / 3 Comments

    In preparation for Christmas morning breakfast I took a pack of our homemade English Muffins out of the freezer.  That would open the door to perhaps Bacon, Egg & Cheese Breakfast Sandwiches, Eggs Benedict or if I was lucky Eggs Florentine.

    Beef Bourguignon

    December 27, 2014 / 5 Comments

    Beef Bourguignon.  Boeuf Bourguignon.  Beef Burgundy.  I think we grew up with this dish.  No, not the first two.  My Mom made beef burgundy often.  The cuts of meat may have started out a bit tough requiring extra cooking love, but the end result was melt in your mouth wonderful. This year’s Christmas Eve Prime Rib was as good as any we’ve had in the past.

    I sent Shelby an innocent birthday text (back on May 28th).  It went something like this….what’s your favorite kind of cake? She threw me for a loop with her response.

    Feast of the Seven Fishes {Christmas Eve Tradition}

    December 24, 2014 / No Comments

    Several years ago I got a hankering to attempt the Feast of the Seven Fishes for our Christmas Eve dinner.  I carefully selected recipes, ordered specialty items ahead from our local seafood market, and rewrote my plan of attack dozens of times before the big day arrived.  I envisioned this becoming our new Christmas Eve traditional dinner and oh how that excited me.

    Ramen {and a Sundays with Shelby outing}

    December 21, 2014 / 1 Comment

    Due to work and life and more life it had been quite some time since our last Sundays with Shelby outing.  A year ago we were fighting the crowd at Walmart, shopping for Clark’s Christmas Kids, what an awesome day that was.  This year, on the 21st of December, we were shopping for therapy.  That’s where the Ramen comes in.

    Who was my Secret Santa this year? Who stumped me so well that I spent an entire week bragging about my amazing Secret Santa to none other than….my Secret Santa?  That would be Bethany.  The sneaky lady who made me a batch of this incredible European Cookie Butter Fudge (along with many other fabulous gifts).

    Ferrero Rocher Cake

    December 16, 2014 / 5 Comments

    I started a tradition last year where I would ask a friend to select a chocolate recipe, anything they like, that I would then recreate and deliver to them to Share the Love.  I call these Adventures in Chocolate.  This go around I chose my friend & co-worker Jennica.  She actually squealed with excitment and headed straight to my Adventures in Chocolate Pinterest Board where she selected this fabulous Ferrero Rocher Cake recipe by Mom’s Dish.

    Favorite Sea Scallop Recipes

    December 14, 2014 / 4 Comments

    I was looking through our food photos and was reminded just how much I adore scallops.  Particularly how much I worship the sweet fresh flavor of Sea Scallops.  I thought it would be fun to gather my favorites in one post.  To all the scallop lovers out there…you’re welcome.

About Libby

Hi, I'm Libby and welcome to Lemony Thyme. I hope you'll enjoy this collection of recipes, eating experiences, and food photography. My cooking abilities rose to a new level when I started incorporating fresh herbs. I began to understand the term ‘layers of flavor’ and found myself deconstructing dishes with my tongue to identify each ingredient.
