Delicious Food… Delicious Life!
We are mom and daughter, sisters, aunt and niece, family, and women who love to cook, write, dream, reminisce, and have fun! Join us for entertaining adventures…mainly involving food!
New Neighbors- Banana Bread with Cream Cheese Frosting
Friends of ours, who we know through my son’s school, moved in “over the fence” from us late this summer. Back-to-school craziness and generally getting back into the school routine hit me harder than usual this year and so making them a housewarming meal, which I had...
Hard Boiled Egg – a hubby favorite
Hard-boiled eggs. My husband loves them, therefore there are always a few resting in the frig amongst their uncooked siblings. To easily tell the difference you place the egg, side down, on a smooth service, and give it a spin. Cooked spins really fast, uncooked...
Ode to the Sandwich- Veggie on Wheat Berry Bread
The Oxford Dictionary tells us a sandwich is “[a]n item of food consisting of two pieces of bread with a filling between them, eaten as a light meal.” As we know, this simple creation has many, many variations. All cultures seem to have their own versions. We find...

Sharing the Christmas Spirit
The Christmas season has always been a time of sharing for my family. I wanted my children to realize that, yes, while “getting” is certainly lots of fun, “giving” can be just as wonderful. So for years we went caroling to the...
Wonderful Holiday Events
Jen had a blast this Christmas season doing two book signings! We already posted about the exciting opportunity to be at Arkansas Children’s Hospital on November 30th. For those who could not join us, here is a photo of our table out front of their amazing...
Glowing Review
Heartfelt Facebook post written about our book by a perfect stranger. Post by Bob N Sonja Williams: “I dearly love this cookbook. A gift from Stephen and Jennifer last Christmas. Great recipes and love the things you wrote in the book. It was the most...
A Day of Thanks
I am sitting here today pondering all the things for which I am thankful just as many of us do at this time of year. My list this year is quite long but I will share a few things with you. I am thankful that I was able to retire from a job that was very fulfilling and...
Our Turkey Cake
Thanksgiving is my husband’s favorite holiday. For him it represents one day in the year when as much family as possible gathers to share stories, love, and thankfulness for oh-so-many things. It is not a day for regrets but a day for optimism. A day to pay homage...
