You don’t have to go out to have a great noodle bowl…You can have one right at home. Asian inspired flavors are a favorite in the summer for me and rice noodles are great hot or cold. I grind my own pork because I like it really fresh, but unseasoned pork is fine to use too… Continue reading
The classic peanut butter cookie is another favorite dessert in The Cookie Jar! In fact it’s my third son’s absolute favorite. Of course I didn’t invent the original peanut butter cookie recipe but here’s the one I use that’s been tweaked over many years until it’s just right… Continue reading
STOP THE CLOCK AND TAKE THE PHONE OFF THE HOOK!!! Wow is this Mac & Cheese Good! If you haven’t heard me say it before, you’ll hear me say it now… I love mac & cheese.

So far this is absolutely my favorite! Yummy, delicious, can’t get enough. Even my Hubby who is not a fan of all things ‘Buffalo style’ had three helpings. Here, have a bite… Continue reading

I love a good tomato juice… and if you add alcohol, well then you have a cocktail. We all have had a Bloody Mary, but this is a Bloody Maria. The difference is Tequila! Also I added blended tomatoes and cucumbers for extra body. It was oh so good… Continue reading
