Good old wonderfully superb deliciousness!
I truly love the fact that I have a pretty crazy imagination. In fact, I think that may be an attractive trait that I possess – at times. There are definitely instances that such an attribute proves to elicit an eye-rolling and hackneyed apathy to those close to me, but for the most part, it…

Oftentimes I find myself really hungry at night – hungry and craving for more. I know enough about myself to know that I am most definitely craving FOUR more, for sure. I’m craving more Life, more Light, more warmth, more companionship, more rest, more love…so much more. I’m craving more knowledge, more experience, more memories….

London Broil or New York Strip – have your pick. The trick is rapid, high heat. I chose the broiler. Only 2.5 minutes per side. Wow! This happened quickly. As I stood in front of the oven, watching my precious steaks, the high heat and flame struck a chord. This was going to be amazing….

Sometimes this did the trick…wisping me away into a peaceful slumber. Other times I was still desperately in need of a motherly cuddle – a need only she could definitely…

I’m very new to cooking lamb. Yes, I’m in love with lamb sausage – but that’s easy. The butchers take care of the hard part. Tonight I tackled (or attempted) my first leg of lamb. No recipe. No experience. No fear…. With fresh rosemary, elephant garlic, and fresh lemon already on hand, I made a…

The title says it all. This sauce is “mad good.” I offered a sample taste to a fellow human being. He asked me before allowing the mouthwatering morsel to pass his lips, “is this healthy?” I smiled at him, with a twinkle in my eye. He tasted. He smiled back at me. “This tastes really…
