My cousin Kim is a beautiful woman! You might remember that I spoke about her in a previous post. She thinks that she needs to lose weight which is ridiculous because she's a size medium! I mean really? How thin do we have to be so we'll be happy with our size? I'll tell you … Continue reading Mango Grilled Chicken

Aunt Paul’s Stuffed Jumbo Pasta Shells
This recipe was inspired first, by a recipe that I had found on the AllRecipes site (I'll provide the link at the end) and secondly by a recipe on the back of the Italpasta jumbo shells package. You see, I had emailed the Allrecipe one to my family awhile back and it was a huge … Continue reading Aunt Paul’s Stuffed Jumbo Pasta Shells
Pork Souvlaki And Home-Made Tzatziki
One of my favourite types of food was Mediterranean food. I could have happily lived solely on it. Well, okay maybe that's not true because I loved eating a great number of styles of food but I could have eaten a whole lot more! Except octopus! I draw the line on my beloved Mediterranean food … Continue reading Pork Souvlaki And Home-Made Tzatziki

Luckily, Haagen-Dazs® has an ice cream called chocolate peanut butter so I can still get me some...oooh that sounded … Continue reading Peanut Butter Cookies! Yum!
Chocolate Chip Cookies
I was never much of a baker but there were a few things that I had mastered. Cheesecake, banana bread, peanut butter cookies and chocolate chip cookies! I found this recipe awhile back but I don't remember where. What I do know is that if you want big fat, soft and chewy cookies, this is … Continue reading Chocolate Chip Cookies
Spicy Thai Beef & Noodles
I always had a love of both Thai and spicy foods. As my ALS progressed, I lost my ability to eat spicier foods because the heat bothered my throat too much. You don't have that problem so you can enjoy some heat in your dishes! Of course, you can adjust the heat level so that … Continue reading Spicy Thai Beef & Noodles
