Eggnog Cut Outs
Cut outs are like the quintessential Christmas cookies. I have so many different recipes for cut outs from my Grandma’s White Cookies which produce a puffy light cookie to Gingerbread cut outs that are crisp and fragrant. We all have different things we look for in cut outs. When I first thought about making these…
Toffee Butter Cookies
Yes, I am still feeding my family something other than cookies and candy during the holidays. Tuesday was Day of Giving. Chivos, a local pizza place, was offering large cheese, pepperoni or sausage pizzas for a minimum donation of $10 each for the first one hundred customers and all the donations went directly to The…
Salted Almond Toffee Brownies
What are the holidays without chocolate? Boring! I have always loved chocolate. Chocolate cake, chocolate cream pie, chocolates…. It never mattered to me if it was cheap chocolate or expensive chocolate as long as it was chocolate! Now that I am, shall we say, getting a bit older my tastes are changing a bit. I…

Spicy Thai Noodles
My son loves spicy food. The hotter, the better according to him. I truly believe it is part of his sensory issues with Autism. Subtlety has never been his strength. When I first thought about making Spicy Thai Noodles the part that appealed to me the most was that I could make it lightly spicy…

Eating Meals Out – Chain Restaurants
Yes, we really do eat meals out occasionally. My daughter and I took a trip last weekend to attend a Feis, Irish dance competition, in Kentucky this past weekend. Normally when we travel as a family we try to find little local joints to eat in. We ask locals or we scour the internet to…
