Italian Wedding Cookies
The time is drawing near for cookies to be made in preparation of Christmas Eve. What goes better with a cold glass of milk for Santa than these tried and true favorites that look like miniature snowballs?

Tennessee Whiskey Trail – Part 3
On a recent beautiful Saturday afternoon, we resumed our pursuit of completing the Tennessee Whiskey Trail. Our travels this day took us to H. Clark Distillery in Thompson’s Station and Leiper’s Fork Distillery in Leiper’s Fork, both of which lie just south of Nashville. We began our day by meeting our friends John and Donna…

Apple Crisp
Recently after a photo shoot, I had leftover apple pie filling. Since I hate wasting any food, I decided to utilize it in a crustless apple crisp.

Popcorn Meal
I have always carried a bit of culinary pride in cornbread. For decades, I have used Martha White Self-Rising Cornmeal along with buttermilk, oil and an egg.
