Sir Wraps-a-lot
I am craving one of these sooo bad! I’ve been gluten-free all month and it’s wraps and morning pastries that I miss the most. The gluten-free thing isn’t going as good as I hoped. I am trying it for better joint health but have felt no improvement. I think I’ll try adding more gelatin to […]

Cranberry and Pear Pie
This pie has become a Thanksgiving staple. It has even (gasp!) replaced my pumpkin pie. It’s the perfect amount of tart but not too sweet compliment to ending a rather filling meal. I know that it’s January but I didn’t get a chance to post this in November. I did see cranberries at the grocery […]

Green Bean Casserole – another Thanksgiving staple
Casseroles seemed so nasty as a kid. It was a hodgepodge of veggies and some meat mixed with cream of something soup and then baked. But that actually sounds delicious. It is an easy one-pot meal that was a staple growing up. I’m not sure who thought up the green bean casserole as a side […]

Another post without photos – Pumpkin Pie
Ok, like I mentioned in the cranberry sauce post, I’m trying to get all my favorite recipes for Thanksgiving in here. And this is one of my favorite Pumpkin Pie recipes.

Thanksgiving Stuffing
Our family has always called that yummy bread dish that so deliciously compliments the Thanksgiving turkey, stuffing. I don’t recall it ever being actually in the bird, though. And so, technically we are wrong. It should be called dressing. But we aren’t changing and neither is this very basic recipe (with the small exception for […]

No picture but the BEST cranberry sauce for Thanksgiving
Although the next few posts will be sans photos, they are my most favorite recipes for Thanksgiving. We’re having Thanksgiving in Hawaii this year (I know, poor babies). So, I thought: why not post all my favs here and refer to them when we get to Hawaii when the cooking commences? Cranberry sauce was ALWAYS […]
