The Best Impossible Swedish Meatball!
I don’t know if you have ever gone through the maze of an IKEA Store, but the reward of finding your way through the store is being able to enjoy one of the best versions of Swedish Meatballs at their in-house restaurant! I’m not quite sure how authentic their recipe […]
Roasted Tomatoes, Garlic, and Balsamic Vinegar…A Perfect Combination!
On Veteran’s Day, Nancy and I visited the Murrieta Rotary Club’s Field of Honor. All the rows of American Flags and the attached stories of the individual Veteran represented provides quite an impressive display. You need to visit if you have never been. We stopped for lunch at a local […]
Charcuterie and Cheese
Just another COVID-19 Day…T.G.I.S. (Thank God It’s Someday!) What to do? What to do? Today is another Someday on our path through this COVID-19 “stuff”. My “family” needs wine and of course food! Weather-wise, it looks as if it is going to be a pretty nice day. It was time […]

Decisions, decisions… What should I make today? How about both! How about if I use the same filling, only a different wrapper? I am kind of a carnivore, so I like my dim sum with some protein. Either way, my cravings are going to be taken care of! Add a […]

Sometimes there is nothing more satisfying than a great meatball with a marinara sauce topped with some Parmesan/Romano cheese and some chopped basil. Making that perfect meatball can bring back those memories of family meals enjoyed long ago. A good friend of mine and I decided to have a meatball […]
