I remember when I was 18 and had just moved into my first apartment with my girl friends. We had no idea how to cook anything and often reheated our meals. Sitting around eating our baked frozen onion rings thinking they were the greatest snack in the world. Typically peeling the onions apart from the […]
Whip Cream Pound Cake with Fresh Cherry Topping
Now some may say this is not a true pound cake, but this is my favorite way to make a pound cake. The texture is so creamy and sweet it honestly does not need a topping, but I could not pass on these beautiful cherries. The topping is not too sweet. The cherries really stand […]

Can we talk about this gorgeous bright green parsley? This is my favorite time to shop for veggies and herbs. Everything is so green and ripe. Parsley is not necessary, but I think it gives this dish a fresh pop in a world of gooey cheese. If you have never tried a cabonara before try […]

Happy National Donut Day! In honor of one of my favorite holidays I made these classic yeast donuts with a dark chocolate glaze and toasted coconut flakes. These donuts came out so light and airy.

Southern Fried Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches
I don’t claim to be southern, but fried chicken has a special place in my heart. Growing up my dad, brother and I used to sit around the kitchen eating chicken biscuits drenched in texas pete hot sauce. Flakey butter biscuits wrapped around an extra crispy chicken breast. I personally cannot eat fried chicken without […]
