Last night around 7 o’clock I was so tired…I didn’t really want to make dinner, but we were hungry and going out wasn’t an option…I was just too darn tired.

As it turned out, it was absolutely delicious, super simple and just what the doctor ordered!!! Continue reading

The mayonnaise is outstanding and the dollop of my homemade pesto took this burger off the charts. A great burger for this holiday weekend… Continue reading
My Hubby loves it when I make him Crêpes! These versatile, very thin pancake-like wraps can hold up to whatever you put in and on them. Today I used leftover ham, sauteed spinach and a cheesy bechamel. I topped it off with some chive butter and it was heaven on a plate! Continue reading
