I love my family of foodies. My son called me Friday night to ask me what I was doing on Saturday. I guess he and his wife were going to go to a dumpling festival that ended up being cancelled. So they decided to make their own dumpling “festival” of sorts in my kitchen. I LOVE dumplings; I have made several different kinds and I … Continue reading Egg Rolls with Asian dipping sauces

My BFF KP got married … Continue reading Harvest Chowder

We have to stop being so stupid busy all the time and make more of an effort to just jump in the car and go. Every … Continue reading Crispy Potato Gnocchi & Pesto
Sitting here this morning trying to figure out what to blog about. This salad looks so good and doesn’t disappoint. Before my husband went out to sand the porch deck he asked me what I was going to make him for breakfast. I immediately said leftover pizza. He said if I put a fried egg on it. I said ummmm no! I started thinking and … Continue reading Panzanella Salad

Yes I know weather matters but I plant garlic every fall and this years crop is GORGEOUS. I am SO proud that here is a picture of it. These are the largest heads I have ever gotten. I just pulled them so … Continue reading Pasta Swiss Chard with Sweet Italian Sausage

Very easy to make, a one … Continue reading Lemon Parmesan Chicken with Squash

It is old, grand with a private beach and deserves the distinction. This is my fourth visit to their beautiful home and … Continue reading Clam Boil – Megansett Harbor
