Old-Fashioned Baked Macaroni and Cheese #SundayFunday

This was my Mom's recipe.  It is the first recipe that I ever made by myself. There was no recipe, but I had helped my Mom enough that I didn't need one.  I was about 9 years old and surprised my Mom by having dinner ready when she got home.

A Week of Celebrations and the Weekly Menu

Today is my Mom's birthday.  She is celebrating up in Heaven with all the other family and friends we have lost before we were ready.

Our mom loved nothing more than a good party.  She was a very social person, and when she wasn't out having fun, she was bringing fun to our household.

A Favorite Italian Wine? How do I begin to choose? #ItalianFWT

Our challenge this month, given by Camilla of Culinary Cam, was to share our favorite Italian Wine.  Say what?!!  Am I really expected to choose just one Italian wine out of all the wonderful wines they have to offer?

I've decided to share a new Italian wine I enjoyed recently at a wine tasting.  This wine is from the Langhe region of Piedmont, a white wine in a land known for its reds.

I just finished listening to The Sideways Life of Denny Voss.  It was a Kindle recommendation that included an audible feature with the e-book.

Hotteok #EattheWorld

Hotteok is a Korean flatbread or pancake, stuffed with sweet or savory fillings.  It is a common street food in South Korea, brought over by the Chinese as a savory treat and adapted to the sweet, nutty version that I am sharing today.
