Kentuckians, it’s time to rejoice.  Derby Day is tomorrow.   Woohoo!!!  And for all of you non-Kentuckians who love every thing about the Derby, you would love the food, too.  A traditional southern recipe that can always be found on my  Derby table is benedictine.  I know that sounds like either a poison or a […]

If you have a yearning for some chocolate, you are at the right place.  I realize that bestest isn’t a word, but I had to use it anyway.  I have the perfect chocolate cake for you, and it is fairly easy to make.  I ate sushi for lunch yesterday, and for some reason, that meal […]

Mr. Right and I just returned home after riding our bicycles 10 days in Florida.  We were looking for some warm weather.  While we were there, he discovered a recipe for orange meringue pie in a magazine.   I have never heard of it before, have you?   I decided it would be one to […]

You know that we normally revisit a post from last year on the first blogging day of the month, but yesterday we were busy with this.  We have noticed an increased interest in our past Derby party posts, so, we thought that we would revisit a how-to on Derby party hosting that we ran in […]

Not long ago a few of us neighborhood gals got together for a bunko night.  If you have never played bunko, it is fun and absolutely no skill is involved.  Since the weather has been cold, we decided to dream of some warm weather, and we had Key Lime Pie Martinis.  They were tasty.

Thanks to Martha Stewart, I checked something off of my bucket list today.  My March issue of Martha Stewart Living arrived, and the front cover was peppered with beautiful, pastel macarons.  Now, check that spelling.  It’s not the traditional coconut macaroons like the ones in this recipe that Jordan made.  These are the delicate, little […]

After a six month hiatus, I returned to my trusted hair stylist, Kerri, this week.  She had a baby last fall, and I decided that would be a good time to try someone new.  However, I really missed Kerri and just had to go back. (Has that ever happened to you?)  I consider her my […]

Jordan lived in San Francisco in the Cole Valley area for a while, and I loved visiting her.  She lived in a charming apartment in a Victorian building, and the neighborhood was adorable.  A great restaurant called Crepes on Cole was located across the street, and we ate many meals there.  I consider it the […]

Greetings all!!!  This isn’t a sexy post (as if we write sexy posts!), but it’s an important one.  Are you carrying home more than your groceries when you bag your food in reusable totes?  A study conducted by the University of Arizona and Loma Linda University found that 97 per cent of us do not […]

I met Lauren when I lived in Hawaii.  She is a Navy officer, and when she isn’t out to sea, she’s in the kitchen.  We are thrilled that she is guest posting here today.  Enjoy her recipe and be sure to visit her blog.
