I just wanted to do my people here a favor and post this recipe before the holiday ends. These pickles, of course, are an all year round treat, not limited to holidays but it’s the kind of thing you keep going back to nosh on and I’ve prepared these both with sliced up cucumbers and […]
The holy day of Yom Kippur has come and gone and we now approach with lightning speed the holiday of Succot. I’m feeling calmer than usual since we built our Succah already and now are talking (yet again, uhuh) food. It’s all good, it’s a celebration and one of my fave holidays. We get to […]
Okay, I’m just gonna say it. This is one of the best chicken recipes I’ve made. Patting myself on the back much? Try it and let me know! DH gets some of the credit for this since he heard me muttering to myself about how to make a special chicken for the holiday and I […]

They come together in minutes without having to cut butter into them since the cream replaces the addition of butter and milk which makes them incredibly fast to prepare. A marvelous addition to your breakfast or brunch and also wonderful as […]
