15 Minute Chili Sauce

I'm going to be completely honest with you here. When I was young, I did not like this 15 minute chili sauce. I'm not even sure why. If you read my last post, you know that I was very excited to help my Mom make this, the hotdog relish - which I lovelovelove - and … Continue reading 15 Minute Chili Sauce

Mom’s Hotdog Relish

This relish is THE best relish in the world! I know, I know, you have heard that before right? I understand that you may be skeptical but trust me when I say that it's the best. This is coming from a person who does not like relish. And I love this one so it truly … Continue reading Mom’s Hotdog Relish

Chicken Carbonara Linguini

There is nothing more comforting than a big bowl of cheesy, yummy pasta! I loved a big fat ol' bowl of Carbonara. It's just so creamy - without the fat of cream - and bacon-y (okay I know that is not a word but for now, it is lol) and just feels like a hug … Continue reading Chicken Carbonara Linguini

I would tell you why but it would definitely gross you all out! And embarrass the crap out of me! HAHAHA...embarrass the … Continue reading Random Thoughts And Other Things – 3

Easy Basil Pesto

There is something about cooking with simple, flavourful ingredients that makes any dish taste so good! I loved making my own pesto for that very reason. You can buy pesto in pretty much any grocery store out there but why would you since it is such an easy recipe? Especially if you grow your own … Continue reading Easy Basil Pesto

Nutty Seed Bread

A week or two ago I found a recipe for a nut and seed bread filled with banana, orange juice and, if I am not mistaken, chocolate.

Brown Butter Babies

Every Christmas my Aunt Paul goes on a baking extravaganza! It starts around early October when she bakes her fruitcakes which will then be "watered" - more like boozed lol - regularly until it's time to gift them to their new homes. And get the lucky person eating it completely snookered! lol My Aunt also … Continue reading Brown Butter Babies

Random Thoughts And Other Things – 2

Do any of you watch HGTV? I may - MAY - have a slight addiction to watching the channel. In fact, my TV is usually left on it. It really just provides background noise so that I don't have to listen to the daily, and nightly sounds of hospital living. I will admit that I … Continue reading Random Thoughts And Other Things – 2
