One of my very favorite soups has always been La Madeleine’s tomato basil soup. This recipe is the closest replica of the soup we’ve ever tasted – we discovered it after modifying a tomato sauce recipe a friend introduced us to. We love it, and I hope you’ll enjoy it as much as we do. Ingredients: [...]
Love pineapple as much as we do? You don’t have to wait to enjoy it just in the summer – you can enjoy it in the fall and winter, too! You could do something as simple as arrange pineapple wedges to look like a Christmas tree on a platter, but you can also find all [...]

Right now there are piles of laundry around me and a batch of cupcakes waiting to be frosted for my friend’s birthday tomorrow. Despite a frenzy of cleaning this weekend we’re still getting everything finished up. But that’s alright, because we got to fit in a lot of fun this weekend. And fun always trumps [...]
I grew up loving Stove Top Stuffing. We had it with our Thanksgiving dinners, so I’ve loved it not only for the flavors but for the memories that go along with eating it. Now Stove Top has Everyday Stuffing Mix, available in a convenient, re-sealable canister – and in two great flavors: Chicken, & Homestyle [...]
