Why don’t you like me? Is it my color? Do you think I’ll make you fat? Maybe my gooey insides freak you out? Could it be that you just don’t like things that are different? These are questions poached eggs would like to ask you. (By you, I am referring to all the people who …

Christmas Is For The Little Ones
Christmas is for the little ones. The season is all about them and making them shine. We enjoy every bit of them even when we have to poke their little eyes out. WHAT??? Why are you looking at your computer screen all weird? I’m talking about those cute little potatoes you see in the bags …
A Sister’s Love is Like a Bowl of Soup
The week before Christmas is always such a neat time. The hustle and bustle of trying to get things done, hearing from folks across the country and eating yummy things. When I was younger, I used to love the week before Christmas because it meant my sisters would be home from college. I lived at …
Christmas Joy Cakes

One more reason to change your menu
It is Thanksgiving week. Are there things you look forward to the most like the laughter, a pretty set table or an excuse to eat multiple pieces of pie? Maybe you love being the favorite aunt (moi), making gingerbread houses and cleaning someone else’s kitchen. I think most people like Thanksgiving because the menu is …
Reservations About Thanksgiving 2015
So Thanksgiving is less than a week again. Have you firmed up your plans yet? Are you the hostess still trying to get a handle your menu because no one will tell you what they are bringing? Or maybe you are a reluctant guest who is only going somewhere out of obligation. Any way you …
