The weather here in Kansas City is finally gorgeous. We have been having sunny, mid 70 degree days. Those of you who have been with me for awhile know how thrilled this makes me. I have made no secret of my detest for winter, so finally having days that are as close to perfect as…

Lemon and Garlic Roast Chicken
I was thinking tonight how much my husband and I view time differently. He, like many men, is one of those people who can sit down and watch the same movie… over and over and over again. I, on the other hand, rarely will watch the same movie twice. I think that there are so…
Garlic Lovin’ Salmon
Everywhere I go these days, it seems like I run into people who are trying to find balance in their lives. I am among those searching for the perfect balance between home/work/family/fun. I have to say, I’m not doing such a great job of it lately. Work seems to be taking on a life of…
The Ultimate Steak Sandwich
You all are probably starting to think that I should change my blog name to Dine and Whine instead of Dine and Dish, aren’t you? Have I been crabby the past couple of posts or what? Sorry to bring you all down, but thank you for pulling me back up. The comments on my…
Crab Cakes with Lemon Garlic Aioli Recipe
I cannot help but think each year our annual Christmas party just gets better and better. Just when I think we can’t top the year before, we do. Our 2007 annual Christmas party was a success with great food, even better friends and lots of laughs! To catch you up, I am turning to…

Turkey and Artichoke Stuffed Pasta Shells
Did I mention something last week about cool weather? Really? Because since that post, I think I have jinxed things. The temps were back up in the warmer ranges and the cool days we were were having are long gone for awhile again. Ahhhh…. you have to love Kansas. If you don’t like the…
Meatballs Need Friends
Oven baked and oh so good, this recipe is easily adaptable and a keeper! Why is it that all that I can think about when writing this post is the You Tube video of Faith Hill recently telling off a concert groupie for groping her husband? I know, I have the mind of a…
Chicken in Lemon Cream with Penne
Recently, I have had a large number of hits on my blog from people who have found my little slice of the web by Googling things such as “Losing the Baby Fat”. Next to my Monkey Bread post from long ago, the two posts I made about attempting to lose the baby weight have…
Rosemary Clover Rolls
The first time I ever made clover rolls it was a kitchen disaster. To this day I have no idea what went wrong. The rolls that I had such high hopes for were hard as a rock. My husband and I had a fun time kicking them around the kitchen. I tried to give…
