Thanksgiving Favorites

My Thanksgiving Favorites can go one for pages. I was born on Thanksgiving Day so maybe that’s why I have such an affinity for this particular holiday. I’ve had from about 18-30 people for Thanksgiving most of my over 50 years of married life. I have Thanksgiving Favorites in every […]

Thanksgiving 2014

Thanksgiving has always been my favorite holiday. I don’t know if it’s because I was born on Thanksgiving day and so it’s ingrained in my DNA , or because I adore all the various foods I choose to prepare for the feast; or because I love the informality of the […]

Friday: Shabbat is Here!

I roasted the cauliflower. Then came boiling the farfalle and making the lemon sauce. That done, all was mixed in a bowl and put into the fridge for tomorrow. That was the dairy side of things for the moment. Now to the meat: I steamed the broccoli, removed the fat from […]

Thursday: Prepping!

Surprise! Our hostess called and told us her back had gone out and cancelled dinner. Out came my one last top of the rib from the freezer and a menu was formed. I cooked the meat Thursday so it could chill and I could remove the fat and slice it Friday morning. I also […]
