Sour Cherry Persian Rice
I love Sour Cherry Rice-maybe because my daughter loves cherries. I definitely did not create this recipe. I did do a good bit of recipe research and melded all the ideas that worked for me into one- and then added roasted onions because my grandson loves roasted onions. Most important […]
Vegan Double Chocolate Cookies
My family isn’t vegan; but every once in awhile, we have guests who are. I had torn out this recipe ages ago from somewhere. It looks like magazine paper as opposed to newspaper. The original recipe is not vegan; but it just took a few changes to make it so. […]
