For as long as I can remember, on Father’s Day, my Dad and me sprawl out on the couch, eat Cheetos, have a beer or two and watch the US Open on TV. It’s what we do and it’s always fun. This year instead of baking him a blueberry pie, I decided to mix it
Black Sea Salt Caramels
Tis’ the season that I am knee-deep in writing my 200+ Christmas cards and making my Black Sea Salt Caramels for clients and friends! This time of year is super busy hanging out in the ol’ house! Every year for something like 15 years I have been making these caramels. I end up making about

Southwest Chicken Soup
So my gal pals from high school and me decided to skip the 25th reunion and meet someplace fun. We picked Sedona, AZ for a relaxing place to go. Lots of hikes, spa day, hanging by the pool, shopping, food and wine. (Did I say wine)? It was a perfect week in the Southwest.
Soba Noodle Salad with Asian Peanut Dressing
Soba Noodle Salad with Asian Peanut Dressing. Look how yummy this looks. No kidding, you should try this! The other night we got together with some of our food blogging friends over at Chatfield Reservoir for some burgers and wine.
