For our #www family meal this last week we were in North Carolina. What came up when I googled it was this pie. I had heard of this pie and initially thought I might have made it before, why else would the name sound so familiar. So I looked on my Instagram, where I post all of our meals. Nothing came up, weird. Why would … Continue reading Atlantic Beach Pie
I made this very simple butter garlic lemon sauce for some Barramundi fish I had picked up from the store. You can use this very easy flavorful sauce with any fish or I think it would be great over most proteins. Where the sauce uses just a few ingredients, make them the best ingredients you can. Basically fresh lemon for the lemon juice, good quality … Continue reading butter garlic lemon sauce for fish
This is a any night of the week meal. Comes together quickly with minimal effort. I was pretty busy yesterday getting ready to host my granddaughters 2nd birthday party. My daughter and I blew up 120ish balloons; with a little air machines help, best $15 spent. This morning I am going to frost the cake I made. Confession, I made the cakes on Friday afternoon, … Continue reading Mediterranean Chicken Bake
We “traveled” to Italy last week for our family’s weekly #worldwidewednesday dinner and I was sort of on my own, Nate did make a delicious appetizer sandwich with prosciutto, mozzarella, arugula, tomatoes and balsamic vinegar. But Abbi was not going to be able to make anything so I picked Italy. I knew I could pull it off, Italian food does not have to be difficult, … Continue reading Italian Lemon Ricotta Cake
I made this recipe a couple of weeks ago and I really loved the taste and that it made 2 loaves. We ate one and the other went into the freezer for a later date. I had everything on hand minus the buttermilk, sometimes I will buy buttermilk, if I have a plan in mind ahead of time. This week I didn’t plan ahead so … Continue reading Lemon Pound Cake
Last week my daughter picked Northern Mariana Islands for our weekly family dinner for World Wide Wednesday. I will admit I had never even heard of them; where does she come up with these ideas? If you ask her she will probably say she saw something that looked delicious and we have to try it. My next question to her is, did you see anything … Continue reading Lemon Meringue Pie
Here is a quick and easy summer time dinner or even a nice lunch. Very few ingredients but full of flavor, a little punch of lemon with a little heat from the chile I don’t think you can go wrong. Even if you don’t have the exact ingredients I used I am sure you can pull something similar together. I planted some sunburst cherry tomatoes … Continue reading Spaghetti with lemon and cherry tomatoes
It is Spring around here and my garlic is popping up out of the earth, not as many as last year but I am on my last bulb from last years harvest so happy to have at least a dozen or so bulb for use during the summer. I will be buying it much sooner this time around. Let’s talk about butter, garlic and lemon. … Continue reading Barramundi with a Butter Garlic Lemon sauce
I made a lovely cake this past week for our #worldwidewednesday. I wasn’t sure how it was going to come out and I don’t have time to make another one to share with you my usual picture montage of how I make things but this was so good I wanted to share it with you. Plus it was really easy to make. My cake is … Continue reading Tunisian Orange Cake

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