Probably one of my favorite things in the world is a properly made croissant. For me, it needs to be made with butter, not margarine or some other butter substitute. Only real sweet cream butter brings the proper flavor to the finished treat. Making the croissant is actually super easy …
This blast from the past is one of my earlier videos so the quality isn’t going to be great. But the recipe is sound and well worth the effort. If you are feeling adventurous in the kitchen, home made sausage is a great addition to any meal. Oak Aged Cider …
Sorry this is late and it’s a blast from the past again (originally published August 29th, 2014). Next week will end up being the same for the weekday posting. Working through some scheduling changes in the outside life that should come under control again soon. But either way, now seems …
Blast from the past food (that sounds weird). Anyway, this one was originally posted December 5, 2014. As the days get hotter, we could start thinking ahead to fall and cooler weather. Remember, don’t think too far ahead though. It seems like only yesterday that we had snow up to …

Turkey Roulade Just in case you haven’t had enough turkey yet. But at the same time, maybe you like turkey for Christmas… Here we go, this week we are doing something a bit fancier than what we have done till now. To make a roulade, you are stepping into French …
Turkey and Dumplings Yep, it’s true. Thanksgiving hasn’t given up on us yet. Granted this is the last of the turkey for us this holiday. At my mothers it is traditional to turn the turkey into turkey and dumpling soup. Well, I had the bones this year so instead of …
