This sauce recipe is awesome! It tastes like something you would get in a restaurant. The original recipe calls for cooking the sauce for 4 minutes, but I like the flavors when the sauce is simmered for a longer period of time…it’s richer and bolder.

You can […]

I found a bag of frozen sweet potato fries at the grocery store. They looked interesting, so I thought I’d give them a try, and see if they’d pass the test.
I gave -s the job of finding a dip or something for the fries, because ketchup seemed well, wrong.
He found this dip at Kirsten’s Home […]
Have you seen the new dark chocolate mint chips by Nestle? I absolutely love mint, so I knew these were right up my alley! -s is the cookie baker in our house, so he found a chocolate chocolate chip cookie recipe on Food Network, and used that recipe to make these most delicious cookies!
