Today’s lesson: When life gives you apples, make Cinnamon Apples! As part of my Personal Chef business, I also offer cooking demos for local businesses. Last weekend, I baked my Soft Ginger Cookies for a Fall Fair at Falcon Pointe in one of their model homes. While I was there, I met a friendly [...]
I recently asked on Facebook and Twitter what types of recipes you would like to see on my blog and the two most requested recipes were bread and Thai food. Which brings me to this post. As you may have noticed, I don’t make much Thai food. Um…pretty much none at all. This is weird, [...]

Dustin and I are HUGE fans (yes, huge enough fans to put “huge” in all-capitals, in case you were wondering) of fresh fish and look forward each week to [...]
I don’t usually like to tell people to do things—I figure they are welcome to try my recipe(s) if they find them interesting. But, this fish recipe is different. This recipe will blow your mind.
