Halloween Treats - You’ve Got Options!


I have a confession to make. I am one of those moms. I cringe at the thought of high fructose corn syrup entering the bodies of my two children. It’s not that high fructose corn syrup is much worse for their bodies than ordinary sugar. But to me, it is a sign that the […]

Fresh Thai Veggie Spring Rolls - Try making them at your kid’s birthday party!

I am so lucky — I get to play with food and get paid for it! This morning, I did a birthday party for a 6-year-old and 9 of her friends. We created some delicious Thai Veggie Spring Rolls for lunch, along with some udon noodles, edamame, and slices of watermelon.
Fresh Thai-Style Spring […]

A Kid’s Take on Marble Cake


We have reached another milestone in kids’ cookery at our house . . . my daughter made her first cake completely from scratch, all by herself. A celebration presented itself — my niece’s sweet 16 — and my daughter immediately asked to bake the cake. I thought about it briefly, then agreed. At 12 she knows how to be cautious […]

An Attempt To Jazz Up Fish


My children cannot decide if they like to eat fish.  One minute they are inhaling a fillet of freshly caught trout, and the next minute they’re giving me stuck out tongues over simple tilapia.  I haven’t figured them out at all.  Last summer we discovered swordfish, and the first two times we had it, both […]

Food Rocks!


I spent about 2 years living in Florida a few years ago. For many reasons, Florida just isn’t the place for me. We packed our bags and rarely look back. However, there was one bright spot to our time there — we were about an hour from Disney World and could go for the day […]

Cook It With Your Kids: Apple-Cheddar Frittata


On my blog, I recently wrote about a great website called Meatless Monday .  They challenge people to skip eating meat, just one night a week, to improve their health… and the health of the planet.  It inspired me to share a delicious vegetarian recipe with you, in case you wanted to go meatless this […]

Just Desserts: Mexican Wedding Cakes


I discovered this recipe a few years ago, while looking for a Mexican dessert for a dinner party we were having, and it has made many repeat appearances since then. I am not a big fan of cookie recipes that involve rolling or cutting, which is one of the reasons I don’t make this recipe more […]

Go-Gurt - is it REAL Yogurt?


When I was at Costco today with my son, something caught my attention. While I am accustomed to seeing the brightly colored, fake flavored Go-Gurt yogurt tubes, I have never seen a Go-Gurt package with the word “Simple” on it. Hmmm. What could this mean? Has a major food manufacturer caught on to the fact […]

Why Didn’t I Think Of That?


One of the things that my family enjoys eating once fall weather commences is a nice bowl of soup or stew accompanied by a piece of cornbread.  Cornbread or cornbread muffins are always a welcome sight to see for both my children, and it is one of the rare items in the house for which […]
