Pumpkin Pie Meringue Bits 5 - Cropped - Watermark

Pumpkin Pie Meringue Candy

Fall is here, and for some unknown reason I’m really excited about it…Which is strange because I’m a summer kind of gal.  I started making “fall” treats in August and September.  That’s right, while everyone else was still sipping pina coladas I was making pumpkin pie. My cousin’s due date for her first baby was [...]

BONE MARROW 2 - FOCUS 1 - WATERMARK

Roasted Bone Marrow with Bacon Asparagus

I bought bone marrow a few weeks ago.  I found it at my local butcher’s shop.  No, it’s not grass fed, it’s “regular” beef bone marrow.  I was so excited to eat this.  Everyone brags about loving bone marrow and bone things like bone broth.  I felt I needed to get in on the action. [...]

PERCH 2 - WATERMARK

Garlic Dill Perch

Perch was for dinner and honestly I don’t like white fish.  Sorry, but it is so plain tasting that I just don’t like it.  I prefer a fresh piece of salmon.  If I have to eat white fish, Halibut is a great choice.  Dinner was perch….  I had to make the best of it. I [...]
