What Time Do You Eat Dinner?
This is an ongoing study for me…LOL As a family, we have often been one that eats relatively late, for whatever reason. It was most likely due to all the after-school activities I was in, but no matter, we have always enjoyed eating a tad bit later than most families. Then, there are families that eat like clockwork around 4:30 or whenever parents get home from work. Whatever your dinner time, leave a comment below and let me...
How to Spice Up Your Campbell’s Tomato Soup
Let’s be real… …There are times I crave the flavor of my youth when I would eat cans of Campbell’s tomato soup. Heck, to this day, there are times I use it for different purposes in the kitchen. Today is one of those “lazy lunch” days. The entire key here is to kick it up to a different level than that regular tomato soup, out-of-the-can taste. So, I’ll let you in on what I do to kick up that...
How to Make Honey Garlic Pork Ribs in the Oven
One of my favorite dishes my mother makes is her Honey Garlic Pork Ribs she does not on the BBQ, but she boils them and finishes them in the oven for that perfectly done, fall-off-the-bone meat that you are craving. If you so desire, you may finish the ribs on the BBQ just the same on a medium flame, just to get those great grill marks, and char-grilled flavor. I’m not crazy about “red sauces” on my meat or BBQ, and...

Young’s Double Chocolate Stout Beer Review
Well, recently, when I made my New Year’s Seafood Gumbo, I tried a few new beers while I was cooking my roux. My new favorite beer, hands down for the moment, is Young’s Double Chocolate Stout. When I say it tastes like chocolate, I’m not kidding in the least. It tastes like a sweet chocolate bar, without being sweet, if that makes any sense at all. I believe it was 5.2% alcohol, and it is made with powdered dark...

Which Food Dehydrators are Perfect for your Kitchen?

Once you start, you’ll think of a hundred things you’ll want to dehydrate all of a sudden…fruit, vegetables, jerky, even flowers & herbs! For instance, you have a plethora of tomatoes in your garden, but don’t feel like canning them all, dehydrate the slices. If you have an overgrown batch of basil or mint, it’s a great...
How to Guarantee You Get Fresh French Fries at McDonald’s
I must admit, even though I’m a serious foodie and love to cook at home, there are those odd times I crave McDonald’s French fries. However, isn’t it such a disappointment and a waste of calories when the fries you’ve been craving turn out to be cold, soggy, or too salty…whatever the case may be. If I’m going to waste those calories, I want to be sure I get exactly what I want every single time. The...
Is Pizza Your Favorite Food?
If you were to stop a handful of people on the street and ask them what their favorite meal was, the odds are that many of them would say pizza. Pizza is not only a delicious meal, it is convenient, somewhat nutritious, and it is always going to be a treat. Of course, there are some things that can be done different with the pizza that is going to make it more of a popular choice, such as adding the right type of toppings or ordering...
How to Cook Escargots on Garlic Toast
Escargots, apparently, is not for the faint-hearted… …Either you can get over the fact that they are snails or you can’t. Plain and simple. LOL One word to the wise: These snails aren’t your average garden-variety snail. They are land snails specifically bred for this purpose. I have loved escargots from a very young age. In fact, I remember ordering them in restaurants for myself at 5 years of age with my...
