I'm a wife, mother, grandmother and avid home cook.I believe in eating healthy whenever possible, while still managing to indulge in life's pleasures.
The Big Game is Almost Here!
Are you a fan of Football? Or are you like me, only interested in the new commercials that debut during the Super Bowl. That, and the food. I look forward to Super Bowl Sunday just to eat.

Welcome to National Iowa Day. Iowa is Mid-West country. There are more chickens in Iowa than people in California and Texas combined. And more hogs than people in the entire state of Iowa. Which explains Iowa’s corn production. Gotta keep those chickens and hogs fed.

Today was a tough one. It’s National Fettuccine Alfredo Day. It’s also Tijuana Tuesday. Now in our house, we could always swap out Tijuana Tuesday with Tuscan Thursday. Better still, take Fettuccine Alfredo south of the border with a little Tijuana heat.

Today is National Chopstick Day. In our house we have a strange tradition. Be it eating at home or dining out, when it comes to Asian dishes, the first bite is always taken with a chop stick.

Growing up, without a doubt my favorite Sunday tradition had to be when Dad made fried chicken. It was the crispness of the skin, the amazing gravy and all the trimmings that made a down-home staple such a hit.

Did you give those Pork Carnitas a try? Hope so. If not, please do. You’ll need the reserved pork for this recipe. Truth be told, Carnitas Eggs Benedict is the real reason I made the shredded pork in the first place.

I know what you are thinking – today is Friday. Typically, we share something meatless in keeping with Friday Penance of No Meat. Big Macs, Little Macs, a Mac of any kind would not fall under that category.

Today’s Feast within the Church is known by many names. Most common are Candlemas or The Presentation of the Lord. According to Jewish law, the firstborn male child of any union belonged to God in a unique way.

Today is Baked Alaska Day (why in the dead of winter?), Dark Chocolate Day, and my favorite – National Texas Day. There is something about Texas that strikes a cord with most Americans. It’s an attitude, a fierce defiance and independence Americans admire.

Today is National Hot Chocolate Day. It is also our daughter’s birthday, her 3rd birthday celebrated in Heaven. Happy Birthday Boo!

We’ve all heard the saying “Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.” Most of us grew up believing that skipping breakfast was a very bad thing. And that’s probably right, in a way. After all, the word Breakfast means Break Fast.

It’s Sunday. It’s National Corn Chip Day. It’s also a strange “Season” within the Church. Did you know that the time between the Epiphany (January 6) the beginning of Lent is called Carnival?

Today is the Feast Day of Saint Thomas Aquinas. Of all the saints, he is one of my favorite. It isn’t so much what he did with his life as what he left to the world. His teachings. His writings. Most of all, his inspiration.

Today is both National Chocolate Cake Day and a Catholic Friday. Today’s recipe has no connection whatsoever to either of those things. It’s neither a cake nor meatless.
