I some times wonder if I chose the wrong profession. Maybe I should have been an architect, a pilot, or possibly a chemist. I love design, travel, and experimenting. But alas, I hate math. So I’m a musician. This way I can count to 4, and start again….

Bourbon Chicken & Vegetable Stir-fry
This recipe combines some of my favorite ingredients: chicken (my all-time favorite food is chicken caesar salad), vegetables (hello, baby corn!), and bourbon. Yes, bourbon. If you doubt my affinity for this Kentucky-made, corn-based, charred-oak-barrel-aged beverage, just search my blog. At least one dozen recipes using bourbon pop up. I love that stuff! The secret … Read more Bourbon Chicken & Vegetable Stir-fry
Bacon, Butternut & Bellas Risotto
We love Veggie Tales. I mean, how much fun is a bunch of gourds making up the wildly popular “Boyz in the Sink” band? Or silly songs about “crusin’ to Dunkin’ Donuts for a cup of steaming Joe in our sport utility vehicles…”?
Comforting Turkey Noodle Soup – gluten free
The best phrase to describe this soup is “comfort in a bowl”. Even though “comfort in a cup” sounds better, turkey noodle soup is so amazing, you are definitely going to want more than a cup worth! Bring on the biggest bowl in the house!

Our own precious little grandbaby is Lucille Caroline. 🥰
Amazing Pellet Smoked Chicken Breast
I got a new toy! Actually, it’s something I have wanted for several years now, but hesitated because of uncertainty. Not uncertainty that a new pellet smoker would be a great addition to my cooking arsenal, but uncertainty that I am “up” for a new style of cooking. All of that hesitancy was completely unfounded … Read more Amazing Pellet Smoked Chicken Breast
Jerk Chicken with Creamy Yoghurt and Lime Sauce
“Jerk” was a term we were not allowed to use growing up. It was right up there with “shut up”, “stupid”, “ain’t”, and other such phrases. We may have been sweet girls — no potty mouths allowed — but we still thought some terms were really funny. Imagine our near-hysterics as the pastor at our … Read more Jerk Chicken with Creamy Yoghurt and Lime Sauce
Curry Chicken and Cashews
The three C’s — curry, chicken, cashews. They are as exciting as the 3 Musketeers, as innovative as Minnesota-based 3M company, but not nearly as tacky and disturbing as the TV show Three’s Company. 🤣
