I love Christmas. Actually, getting ready for it is most of the fun! I know that this site is for recipes and most people are looking for some nice festive meals and desserts to prepare for their loved ones and their not so loved ones (know you have them, we all do!) One of my [...]

Chocolate Cream Cheese Christmas Brownies

We had our staff Christmas buffet today at school and I had signed up to make a yum dessert. I made the Over the Top Cookies, but decided to try another dessert also as the Over the Top were not too pretty. Don’t get me wrong, they weren’t ugly and they were delicious, it’s just [...]

Minty Chocolate Christmas Bars

I wonder why it is that winter brings on the demand for comfort food. Lots of it. Hmm. Well, I guess that’s one to ponder. While I was contemplating comfort food, I decided to make some. This is comfort food at its highest level. Unfortunately while this food will give comfort to your heart and soul, [...]

Grilled Rubbed Chicken With Moroccan Spice Mix

Grilling chicken on another snowy day in New England is one way to warm up and may even bring back spring fever, though I tend to doubt it. It will take a lot more than that but nonetheless the thought of grilling brings back fond memories of last summer. Rubs are a versatile way to [...]

Holiday Party Appetizers

It is that festive time of year that we gather with friends and relatives. Ever wonder what to serve your guests? Today, many people are health conscious, even during the holidays, so I always put out a veggie platter with two types of dips, one being a fat free ranch dressing. Cheese and crackers also [...]

Pizzelle Making Day

Today is pizzelle baking day. It is snowy and getting close to Christmas so it is the perfect day to do this. Pizzelles are fun to make. I love the smell of them baking in my little pizzelle maker. There are many different recipes for pizzelles but my favorite is one that I received from [...]

More Chocolate Cookies for the Holidays

Just thought I would post some more chocolate cookie recipes now that the holidays and the cookie baking season are here. Does that season ever go away? I think not. Enjoy these recipes. The whoopie pies are an old family recipe (which means I probably have a lot of relatives out there), the mint bars [...]

Fudge for the Holidays

Fudge. Delicious. Rich. Fattening. Perfect for the holidays. I love fudge. I have grown up in a family of fudge makers and lovers.  Fudge can be difficult or easy to make depending upon the recipe. I have a couple favorite recipes that I usually make each year.  Fudge also makes a great gift for those [...]
