We had so much fun with Truman in town seeing us last week. After doing a little indoor skydiving, we went to Dave & Busters and had chocolate fondue. It was such a hit that the next night, we decided to make cheddar cheese fondue. It was loved by all! We served it with three kinds… Continue reading Quick Cheddar Cheese Fondue

Marinated Green Beans
Healthy can be yummy! Lyn served these at a party as an appetizer. She was gracious enough to share her recipe about a year ago and it has been a great addition to several menus.

Butternut Squash Lasagna
I'm crazy about butternut squash, especially when I find it already peeled and cubed.

Pizza is one of my favorite food, and I have enjoyed making homemade pizzas for years with this pizza dough. Nothing is more fun than inviting over a few couples, having them bring some toppings, then bellying up to the pizza-making bar. 1 cup lukewarm water 2 T. olive oil 1 packet dry yeast 3… Continue reading Classic Pizza Dough
