A few weeks ago a comment came in about the Oreo Cookie pie crust I used to create the Play In The Mudd Pie. One of Exploits readers was cool enough to write in to tell me that when she had looked up the ingredient list of the crust on the Nabisco website, the list […]

We’ve sampled a few of their products and here is the first scoop about some of this non-dairy cheesy delight. I used the Gouda to make the Garlicky, Gouda Croutons that topped the roasted veggie […]

Over the weekend we were given a handful of butternut squash that had been grown by my niece and nephew. They are in elementary school and have a voracious appetite for growing veggies (love that). Because I know how lovingly this squash had been cared for, I felt it was my obligation and honor to […]
