Good for You Easy Bran Muffins
Many of you have asked me for uncomplicated baking recipes. I have one go-to recipe that I’ve used since the early 70’s. It is one of those fadish recipes that we all used, but for some reason went out of style. You’ll be gad I resurrected this one for you!
The King of Winter Vegetables, Broccoli
My current favorite vegetable to grow through the winter months is broccoli. I did not grow up with it in Lebanon, and did not care for it in the U.S., but I have flipped my negative vote to a resounding yes since I’ve started growing it myself! Not only is it easy to grow, but broccoli is an extraordinary green substitute in a salad.

We’re in the middle of basketball season. What is my history with basketball?

Puppy Chow
What can you serve to drop-in guests during the holidays, to carolers on your door step, to your neighbors, on your dessert buffet, or at your church potluck that everyone, I mean everyone devours? Puppy chow, that’s what!
Bird Seed Ornaments

Thanksgiving Hangover Soup
It’s the day after feasting with our families and friends. The last thing we want to do is get back into the kitchen! However, we ask ourselves, “what can I serve all my houseguests besides turkey and ham sandwiches?”
Pumpkin, Love it or Leave it!
We seem to all have a love/hate relationship with pumpkin. I am the official pie maker for our family gatherings since my mom passed. No one could ever compete with her pie making skills, but I try to pass on that piece of her legacy each year.
