There is something about rhubarb that screams spring! I remember being a kid and picking a piece of rhubarb to snack on with some sugar. Or Mom would cook it down with sugar so we could spread it on toast. Yum! I'm drooling just thinking about it! This recipe is a great way for you … Continue reading Rhubarb Crumble Cake
Aunt Paul’s Amazing Carrot Cake
This is the BEST cake in the world! I say that being a person who was never really into eating cake...unless it was this cake! There is only one other cake that I loved before I got ALS but I'll give you that recipe another day. Now that I can no longer eat food by … Continue reading Aunt Paul’s Amazing Carrot Cake
Weekly Flyer Report

Garlic Shrimp
I used to love to cook. It was my stress reliever. I would come home from work, have 1 beer - yes only 1 - and go through the fridge and see what inspired me. I would tend to just throw a bunch of things together and see what turned out. The mixing of ingredients … Continue reading Garlic Shrimp
