Hi Everyone!! I’ve missed you all! Sorry about the delay getting back to you after Passover, but I have a good excuse- for those of you that don’t know, I got pretty sick over the week of Passover and needed some extra time to get back to myself.

HERE I IS!! I’ze back!! And I am so grateful to be feeling well, back to my life, back in my kitchen, thinking up recipes that make my kids groan and my husband roll his eyes and grimace when he thinks I am not looking. What could be better??? Continue reading →

I think I’ve confused a lot of people with this blog. My vaguely employed brother wants to know what my monetization strategy is. My neighbor asked if I’ve quit my day job. The plagiarism police just wants to (politely) confirm that I actually made up the recipe I posted. Everyone else wants to know when they can come for tasting. So to answer everyone’s questions: no monetization strategy, haven’t quit my day job. Unless otherwise noted: developed, tested, reworked, and retested the recipes by myself.
