Summer Harvest Veggiecakes

By Sherry K on August 2nd, 2013

They’re taunting me.

It’s like they’re saying, would ya please come up with something?

I swear, that pile of zukes and yellow squash from Dad’s garden is multiplying when I’m not looking. I’ve made the usual suspects–zucchini bread, zucchini casserole, zucchini boats, sautéed […]

Hot Peach Vidalia Cheese Spread

By Sherry K on July 19th, 2013

I rode the bike to church Sunday, and one of the first persons I ran into was my friend Loanna. She was looking all forlorn because she said she had brought me something and wasn’t sure I could carry it on the bike. I got all excited because Loanna […]

Blueberry Lemon Drop Popcorn

By Sherry K on July 11th, 2013

I’m so anxious to jump on the Dessert Challenge bandwagon again, since I had to miss it the last 2 months. To refresh your memory, Sheryl, at Lady Behind the Curtain, has picked 2 ingredients each month (such as coconut and lime or caramel and pretzels) that we are […]

Garlicky Thai Chicken Pizza

By Sherry K on April 25th, 2013

It is of my belief that all good savory recipes start out with garlic (and onions, for that matter). I don’t know, it’s like if the kitchen doesn’t wreak when I’m done cooking, I just haven’t accomplished my job properly.

Ya know what I mean?

As […]

It’s Zippy Tip Tuesday!

A few months ago, my S.O. and I had a rather humorous conversation involving the word “profiteroles” . I was making a batch one evening; and well, I guess you could say there was a wee bit of some miscommunication! To read about it, […]

My heart is filled with gratitude right now. Many of you read about my aunt and her “Easter feast” a couple of weeks ago. (If you missed the post, it is here: Easter Egg Nest Centerpiece.) Little did I know how close I came […]

Phyllo (Fill-o) My Cup Bar

By Sherry K on February 21st, 2013

The other night, we had our friend Michelle over for a VERY important basketball game. Ya see, Indiana University was playing Michigan State, and it was a HUGE match-up, since they are 1 and 2 in the Big 10, respectively. More importantly, my S.O. and I are IU alums, […]

Choco-Chili Chicken Wings

By Sherry K on February 7th, 2013

Every Sunday evening, my S.O. and I have “splurge night”, where we allow ourselves to have something a bit (OK, maybe a lot) more decadent than our usual weekday fare.

So why Sunday, you may ask? Well, we have tried putting splurge night on Friday or Saturday, […]

Smoky Persimmon Cranberry Compote

By Sherry K on January 24th, 2013

You know how some recipes start out by accident?

Well, I was in the middle of making cranberry sauce when my S.O. called and was lost coming home from a conference in a nearby state. I ran to the computer to get directions, came back to my […]
