BEEF STEW WITH HORSERADISH SMASHED POTATOES

It’s mid-winter and while we’ve had one really good snow this season, as I look out my windows today, I see brown grass and bare trees – it all melted when the rains came whipping through a few weekends back. We’ve had a few additional days of snow but nothing […]

BAKED EGG ‘CUPCAKES’

I can’t say I ever remember my kids being picky eaters; other than a few vegetables deemed ‘nasty’, i.e., green beans and peas (which they still don’t eat as adults) – my kids were fond of soups, salads, tomatoes, broccoli, carrots, cabbage – even tuna was acceptable in our house. […]

Musical pairing – Bad Moon Rising by Creedence Clearwater Revival SMITH BITES NOTE: On the musical pairing above, my father-in-law was a big fan of CCR and played quite a bit of it when The Professor was growing up; however, The Professor would sing, ‘don’t go around tonight, well it’s […]

CREAMY TOMATO SOUP – NO SOUP NAZI HERE!

Musical pairing – It’s So Easy by Linda Ronstadt I almost always make a pot of soup each week to tuck in the refrigerator and have on hand for lunches and/or suppers; kind of my backup plan for those times when I don’t have a plan and I’m too brain-dead […]
