  • Mom’s Spoon Bread

    November 19, 2019

    Don’t mind me as I scooch in, this savory classic NEEDS a seat at your Thanksgiving table. No knives here – just a big serving spoon to pierce the crust, and right on in to the warm, custardy interior.

  • Mango Cupcakes

    August 1, 2019

    Timing worked out serendipitously for sure. Many weeks ago as I was planning the third recipe in my mango series, cupcakes were on my radar. What I hadn’t done was check the calender! I was born on a Friday, a MONTH after my due date and weighing in at a whopping 10 lbs 12 oz!! – my poor mom. I arrived one day before my

  • Mango Cobbler

    July 18, 2019

    I don’t have a favorite color, a favorite movie, a favorite flavor of ice cream… but, I do have a favorite fruit. It’s no secret I’ve got a huge crush on mango! One of the most juicy, most luscious fruits in existence, it’s perfect to indulge my sweet tooth. My mom and dad have a prolific mango tree, and this time of year

  • Roasted Salmon with Jammy Gingered Tomatoes & Lime Yogurt

    June 11, 2019

    Juicy oven roasted salmon topped with sweet ginger spiced grape tomatoes and drizzled with a zesty lime cream, every bite is a symphony of flavors.

Coconut cream pie is one of her all time favorite desserts, so, Mom, this one’s for you-and all the other coconut cream-loving moms out there! I have to say, it was tough to choose given my mom has a lot of favorite treats. My first

  • Granny’s Salmon Spread & Other Easter Treats

    April 15, 2019

    Something old, something new, something borrowed… It’s not what you’re thinking, no one’s getting married! This is my Easter post, and I’ve got three recipes that bring this old saying to “Topp” of mind. Lots of people have an Easter main they make every year, usually a honey ham or a leg of lamb. So I focused on dishes

  • Mrs LaPlant’s Shrimp with Feta Cheese

    January 21, 2019

    You may recall reading about my recipe box in an earlier story. I received this wonderful gift from my aunt Adrienne years ago, and cherish the heirloom recipes it contains. This dish, Mrs. LaPlant’s Shrimp, is one of the many jewels. On the back of the card Adrienne notes that Bob LaPlant was the first Bealls store manager,

  • Lamb Meatballs Glazed with Toota’s Pepper Jelly

    December 27, 2018

    This is a super fun and tasty appetizer, but you could also serve it with mashed potatoes and make a meal out of it. I do it more frequently as the former because I can prep everything ahead and cook the meatballs just before guests arrive so they are warm and sticky as they come out of the oven. Toota was my dad’s great aunt,
