“stay close to people who feel like sunshine” Since the holidays are over, and my foot is healing, and I don’t have to wear the boot anymore, I can start to cook the way I usually do. Holidays are great, but we get off course with the way we eat. I decided to make Shannon’s…

Pasta Carbonara
“home is my happy place” Since it was a long weekend, my granddaughters stayed over most of it. I remember when I was young, my sister and I would stay at our grandparents house as much as our parents would let us. We have the best memories, and we always seem to reminisce when we…
Cooking with Nyla
“you are a beautiful cupcake in a world full of muffins” Today, I get to do errands with Maliah. I need to go to the market to pick up a few things, then we have to pick Mia and Nyla up after school. While I am doing all of this I am deciding what to…
Stefanie’s Chicken and Rice Casserole
“you are made of magic” While I was doing all my errands today I was trying to decide what to make for dinner. It’s starting to get cold out so I am thinking of all the comfort foods I could make and getting excited because I love this time of year (I think I’ve mentioned…
Cooking with Papa
“be the grandparent you want them to remember…” Saturday night with the girls are always fun. Tonight Mia decided to make the dinner with her Papa. They discussed what they wanted to make, and they came up with a delicious shrimp and pasta recipe that Mia cooked while Ronnie guided her. She did an excellent…
Everyone’s Favorite Chicken Cutlets
“recipes don’t work unless you use your heart” – Dylan Jones Ronnie and I are always arguing about who makes the best chicken cutlets. He insists his are better because he makes them really thin. I, on the other hand, believe my cutlets are better. We prepare our recipes very differently; he uses flour, I…
Shannon’s Chicken and Broccoli
“good food ends with good talk” Ronnie is always asking me to make broccoli. It’s not my favorite vegetable so I rarely make it. While having dinner with our best friends, Shannon and Mike, we started the same discussion about broccoli. Shannon told Ronnie that she will make him her favorite dish, chicken and broccoli….
Summer Nights
“good company and summer nights” Another beautiful night spent with family and good friends. Tonight I’m making my niece Giana a special dinner. She has been with us all summer because she had an internship in our area. She requested a few of her favorite recipes; my “go to chicken” and pasta with countertop sauce….
Mama’s Carrot recipe
“if God had intended us to follow recipes, He wouldn’t have given us grandmothers” This is another one of my grandmother’s recipes with no measurements. It’s hard to make a recipe taste like my grandmother’s when she didn’t measure anything, so I just cross my fingers and hope for the best. It always comes out…
Polenta with Shrimp, Mushrooms and Fire roasted tomatoes
“kitchens were made to bring families together” Today my husband Ronnie requested polenta (yet again), so I made it a bit different. I used fire roasted tomatoes, which made it a totally different taste . The polenta came out so creamy, the best I’ve made it so far. I hope you like this version! 2…
