There's nothing quite like a bowl of hearty Beef Stew. A slice or two of some french bread makes for a comforting meal on a blustery day. I also have a giveaway with Hammer Stahl cutlery after the recipe! It's starting to feel like fall! I've not yet turned on my heaters, but we do have an electric heater in the living room going to take the chill off and I love it. Yay for that crisp chill in the air! I am sure I will be singing a different tune come winter. But for now nothing … [Read more...]

Greek Salad
Greek Salad is a refreshing salad with chicken and a wonderful dressing all tossed with fresh vegetables. It makes a wonderful light meal. Are you all on the eating healthy train? I am partially.

Baked Asparagus
Baked Asparagus is the perfect way to eat it. If you've never tried it before, start with this easy recipe!

All Melanie did was drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper, and put it in … [Read more...]
