Homemade Fudge
I made a double batch of Walnut and White Chocolate Fudge. Most of the fudge got boxed up to send to family back east. But I did keep out a few pieces for Moe and I. Walnut and White Chocolate Fudge ================= 1 cup white sugar 1 cup brown sugar 1 cup cream – heavy/whipping…
Lori’s White Chili and a New Year Commitment
I was looking at Lori’s White Chili pictures and recipe and thinking how good it looked and decided I would make it for dinner. It called for cooked chicken so I poached three chicken breasts and then on my way to work I stopped and picked up the other ingredients I needed. This is definitely…
Warm Gingerbread Cake with Caramel Sauce
Last nights dessert was a last minute decision. I wasn’t going to bother making a dessert but I knew my two guests would be disappointed. Soooooo I baked a Gingerbread Cake. This cake is rich, moist and and delicious and can be served with either a lemon sauce or caramel sauce. I like both sauces…
Braised Lamb Shanks
Two of our neighbours joined us for our first dinner of the New Year. More often than not I bake a ham for New Years day dinner. But this year I decided to go with lamb. I have this wonderful recipe for a lamb ragout that uses boneless lamb cut into cubes. I’ve made this…

I pre-ordered five live lobsters and picked them up yesterday morning before heading to work….

New York Strip steaks, well trimmed and presalted for at least a couple of hours. Rubbed with fresh garlic and coated in crushed peppercorns. I used a mix of green, black…

Scallion Pancakes
I’ve been thinking of making Scallion Pancakes ever since I first saw them on Foodgawker and Tastespotting. Tonight was the night. I decided to use the recipe from Big, Bold, and Beautiful because her pancakes looked the best. And they didn’t disappoint. They were flaky and delicious. I mixed up my own dipping sauce…
