Some time ago I shared pictures from brunches attended by the ladies in my family along with a few friends. Last weekend my aunt hosted our brunch. Here are a few snapshots of some of the dishes she prepared. Gathering at the table on these Saturdays gives us an opportunity to talk about any and...
During this time of year, finding ways to warm up after stepping in from the cold is not that big of a challenge when you have hearty soups like this to look forward to.
I’ve heard of Bucket Lists filled with things to do before dying or before reaching a milestone birthday but never one to celebrate a specific season. The list below is my Winter Bucket List inspired this week by Mama Kat’s Writer’s Workshop.
Forgive me readers for I’ve been a way for some time.
And oh how the time flies…
It’s been more than a year since my last post.
During my hiatus so much has happened.
The April 2011 Daring Bakers’ Challenge was hosted by Evelyne of the blog Cheap Ethnic Eatz. Evelyne chose to challenge everyone to make a maple mousse in an edible container.
Eggs and toast for breakfast are great but sometimes a glass of juice is all I need. My favorite combination is apple and carrot juice but I’m open to tossing in other fruits and veggies. My sister actually introduced me to juicing beets. She had to be the one to do that though because I’m...
I’ve moved several times in my life and grew pretty accustomed to the “idea” of it early in my marriage. Steeler Fan’s work required that we move every couple of years as he climbed the ladder. Now that we’re years past all of that, I’ve grown to enjoy being in one place. However, I would...

When I was growing up, I didn’t even like the concept of buttermilk. I thought the thick, sour liquid should remain in the carton it was stored in. So, the first time I heard of Buttermilk Pie, I was a little more than apprehensive about trying it. A couple family members swore to me that...
The weather here over the weekend was near perfection…not too hot, not too cold. The Spring-like temperature brought with it an energy I’ve missed dearly. While driving around town with the windows down and my favorite CD playing, I thought about the things I love about Spring. Fish Frys Grilling Outdoor Markets & Festivals Bookstores...
Before the “big game” on Sunday afternoon, I met up with The Atlanta Food Bloggers Alliance for a gluten-free experience at Fuego Mundo. The restaurant, located in The Prado shopping center in Sandy Springs, offers South American cuisine with influences from Argentina, Columbia, Cuba and Spain. One of the things that will motivate me to...
Hello, my name is Teresa and I laugh at my own jokes. It usually happens during some random light-hearted conversation with Steeler Fan. While we’re talking I say something that I think is funny. Not like ha ha that’s so funny But like laughing silently while biting your little pinky fingernail funny Then like Laughing...
