February 25th is National Chili Day! Right smack in the middle of Winter, just when cabin fever is getting real and we’re all longing for spring. It’s the perfect chance to break out a new Chili recipe to excite your taste buds.

The Chili Police could have great fun with this recipe roundup and argue that none of these recipes are indeed Chili. However for the purpose of conveying a collection of soups/stews that are seasoned with aromatics and spices most akin to Chili – we’re going to roll with it.

Happy National Muffin Day!

I set a calendar reminder for this food holiday because I knew it would be an opportunity to spend some time in the kitchen with Ella, my fun-loving, bright, kind and witty bonus-daughter who can hold her own in the kitchen. She’s 11. She’s a natural. And she makes banana bread like nobody’s business!!

Woodbound Inn. Home of one of my many dream jobs. That was where this Seafood Newburg recipe originated. It was one of several that my sister uncovered in a misplaced recipe box. I could hardly wait to recreate it, and now that I have I can hardly wait to make it again. I’m certain the familiy is completely on board with that.

Cajun Crab Stuffed Flounder with Peri Peri Cream Sauce

I’m forever running to the grocery store to pick up a few last minute ingredients that inevitably turn into a buggy full. You know this drill. Other than to enforce an Eat Out of the Fridge/Pantry Week (which we do out of necessity every other month or so) I can’t seem to break this.

With winter ragging across most of the country, I posed this question on Facebook:

What is your favorite soup?

I received a nice variety of responses, which included some of my favorite soups like Broccoli Cheddar and Italian Wedding and others that I had yet to recreate at home. Steak & Potato Soup was a sentimental entry, since it came from my husband Nick.

Chinese New Year fresh ingredient recipe.

Mu Shu Chicken Cabbage Rolls.

Chinese New Year is always an ‘event’ for me. My passion for this holiday stems from what used to be my day job, which was…importing door locks. Hold on, don’t run away so fast.
