Crispy Bacon Apple Brussel Sprouts
I've made this recipe twice now for my family. Depending on the type of bacon you get, it might take a little longer to crisp up. Make sure to throw your oven on broil at the end. The bacon fat coats the Brussels and apples evenly as you mix it around. It's amazing!
Lovely Lemon Sugar Cookies
Luckily, these are super easy to whip up and I add a little frosting to get my fix in before we all start New Years Resolutions.
Fresh Cedar & Pine, Divine! My holiday wreath tradition
Year after year, we all start out by griping "I don't know what I'm doing." But within an hour, the group of about 30 or 40 people come out with gorgeous creations, no two the same. This creativity is just part of the hook. Once you put a fresh, fragrant work of art on your front door or over your fireplace, you will never go faux again.
These Four Walls
Panic struck immediately. I was one of the many that ran to the grocery store in search of frozen foods (not toilet paper - starvation was much scarier in my book).

He specializes in plastic surgery, so I told my husband I have to buy a new nose to make up for his impromptu therapy session and comforting words.
Secret Family Recipe: Italian Garden Stew
In our house, we call it "Cucuroma". This probably stems from the name of an Italian squash "cucuzza". My great-grandfather came to the Cleveland area from Sicily and he loved to cook. We build our gardens around growing the ingredients for Cucuroma.
