A couple of weeks ago a friend tagged me in a post about a Chop Local event at a local Inn and Restaurant. I thought oh that isn’t that so sweet she thought of me; shout out to you LW. Then my daughter brought home the entry form for her, her brother and myself. I honestly didn’t think I had a chance in hell; yes … Continue reading Sirloin, Autumn harvest hash, black garlic red wine sauce

They are just … Continue reading Sauteed Scallops & Swiss Chard

If anyone wants to share their favorite salmon recipe, I might consider trying it but I make NO promises. I think it is a little too fishy tasting for me. The other fish … Continue reading Pan-Seared Swordfish Steak w/mixed peppercorn butter
