Another week of gray skies and cold weather…burrrr! We just want to see a little sunshine please – Santa! Might be an unusual request, but worth asking. These shorter days of daylight also seem to throwing off my eating and sleeping ...
Quick Holiday Chicken Noodle Soup
We are all coming off a long, huge, just-one-more-bite of my favorite dish weekend of over eating. We all lost control! Excuse me, but I feel totally comfortable speaking of the all of us. Is that OK? Is that wrong? Are you ready ...
Turkey Tetrazzini (for turkey leftovers!)

Extra! Extra! Read all about it! Something exciting happened around here last week! Our Italian Inspired Petite Pumpkin Pasta (Zucchettes), was featured in the NY Times Dining section! The long time influential food critic and writer, ...
