Tonight is the annual tradition of watching Hocus Pocus with family and friends, and this time I’m starting dinner off with a pureed cauliflower soup I hope everyone will love.
I love birthdays, especially those that come with cake recipes and stories about miracles and saints.
I hope you all are enjoying your Memorial Day weekend, and I’ve included one of my favorite Robert Frost poems to remind us that peace isn’t always free.
It’s almost Fat Tuesday, the day before Lent begins, and that means it’s time to make an authentic King Cake.
Let’s raise a glass today to toast Robert Burns, Scotland’s National Poet and the author of Auld Lang Syne.
Happy New Year! May 2024 be our happiest yet!
I hope you all have a merry Christmas!
May you all have a happy and safe Thanksgiving.
Tomorrow night I’m serving my version of the Van Tassel feast that Washington Irving wrote about in his famous spooky story The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. I’m serving ham and cheese hand pies, roasted chicken in a pumpkin, spiced peach cake, and to accompany it all I’m also making my favorite spiced pear chutney.
Tonight I’m planning a weekend watch party with my family and we’re stacking up all of our favorite black and white scary Halloween movies. Here’s my list!
Spiced Peach Cake is one of my all-time favorite autumn desserts, and this one fits my Sleepy Hollow themed dinner party perfectly.
