Today was our Halloween Luncheon at the office. It is an annual tradition. We decorate, dress in costumes, and feast. I decided to make a giant Classic Lasagna to share with my work family. But I wanted to add a spooky element to the dish. Wait til you see what I did. Continue reading »

Perhaps the dish I remember most from my childhood is Beefaroni. Not the canned type, but Homemade Beefaroni, that I think we had every week. It’s affordable, easy to prepare, family friendly, and so delicious. For that reason I consider this a comfort food recipe. Continue reading »

I took yesterday off from work to cook. That was the sole purpose of my day and I was in heaven. I’ve shared often that my work family loves to eat. In fact, everyone either loves to eat or loves to cook (or both). Which makes for some great special occasion spreads. Today we celebrated Mardi Gras with a giant pot of Chili Gumbo and a platter of Mardi Gras Wings. It was a good day. Continue reading »

I’ve just spent 30 minutes debating about what to call this latest Chili Masterpiece. Something in me strongly protests anytime I want to use the words ‘Greatest’ or ‘The Best’ in a recipe title. It’s very literal. Continue reading »
