We all eat seasonally—even if we don’t plan it that way. There is just something about a burger on the grill on a warm day – or a bowl of chili on a cold, rainy day. But what should you do when the weather is not typical? My answer this week was Lemon Pepper Salmon with Arugula. Quick, easy and if spring had a taste, this might be it. [Read more…]
One Bowl Chocolate Cake
It is time to take on that homemade scratch cake. No need to be a nervous Nellie, this is really very simple and you will be successful.

Hot Cross Buns
One of the main reasons that I absolutely adore my career is the fact that food is tied in with so many memories of our lives. Each of us can remember a time or event, or suddenly a cherished picture of days gone pops into our thoughts, by simply smelling or enjoying a food tradition.

Breakfast has to be fast and special on this day. We celebrate with hard cooked,dyed Easter eggs and Hot Cross Buns. I make the Hot Cross Buns a day ahead and voila! Breakfast is served, no hassles and such fun. [Read more…]
