Today Mike and I have a wedding to attend. We are looking forward to it with excitement, but, the wedding ceremony is at 1:00pm, so we were trying to figure out when we’d be eating. With my being on Weight Watchers, I never want to go hungry to anything with food I have no control over — because I am seafood eater– if I see … Continue reading Breakfast Frittata (good for a crowd)
Summertime, and the living is easy, fish are jumping and the birds gotta fly……… It was hot outside today. By the time I came downstairs, at 7:45, it was already 78 degrees outside and getting warmer by the minute.

Today, being a holiday, meant my hubby and I were both home. We took advantage of the rainy, dreary day, to get caught up on a couple of long-outstanding chores.

Basically it’s a nice variety from … Continue reading Boston Style Baked Haddock
This dish is old school and not for the cholesterol or calorie watching crowd, but, since I make it about once every 18 months, I’m not too worried. As you know if you’ve been following, I have a household of men who like their food, so, where I would normally make 1# of chicken livers for 3 of us, today I made 2#. There is … Continue reading Chicken livers with Caramelized Onions, Mushrooms & Bacon
