As the holidays have come and gone, we look for new and easy side dishes to add to our repertoire since we don’t want to fuss too much but still want our veggies. Since I’m a big green bean fan – love the flavor and texture – I like to play around with different combos. […]
The dust has just about settled but I had to share with you my gratitude to G-d for all I’ve received. DH and I hosted all the kids and grandkids together with my mom and we were over 30 people. They all took Covid tests so nobody would be nervous (though all those who can […]
