Chickpea Cutlets with Gravy
I remember in fairly vivid detail most of my younger life. Not just the poignant, life-altering stuff, but I can still recall the mundane things such as my best friend Jimmy’s phone number. However, I can’t tell you when I tasted roasted turkey for the first time. Nor can I tell you when I ate…

It is hard to believe, but this post is number 50! Thank you all so very much for reading my stuff and trying my recipes. I did have a really fancy Thanksgiving recipe all ready to go for this milestone, but I got a message yesterday from a reader and had a change of heart….
Creamy Potato Soup

Butternut Squash Salad
Rarely, can you find anything good to eat in a chain restaurant. I mean sure there is “Fish Fest” that offers all-you-can-eat catfish fingers. There is the “Rib Round-up” that continuously fills your plate with baby-back ribs. Don’t forget the buffet loaded with over 500 items including the chocolate fountain. Or if you are looking…
Stuffed Acorn Squash
When I was about six or seven years old, my dad decided to do some home renovations. And my father wasn’t going to just do a little painting or hang some new window treatments. No, he was going to move a wall to extend our den/television room. As a kid, this was the most awesome…
