I decided to try making a coffee cake from the Bisquick Healthy Heart. Can I tell you a secret? I grew up with a mom who used Bisquick. That was the base at our house for both biscuits and pancakes. My favorite hands down was the coffee cake. I confess that it is still on…
One of my niece and nephews favorite dishes is my mom’s Sloppy Joe’s. A few weeks ago I decided to turn it into a casserole. The kids liked it and even my brother thought it was great. His compliment meant a lot because my brother was the guinea pig for my early cooking. During his…
Tomorrow is August 1, where has the summer gone? I spent last weekend at the San Diego Comic Con. I am telling you, the people watching doesn’t get any better than that place. Where else can you see grown adults and their children dressed as their favorite super hero mixed with the stars of your…
I love cherries. They say summer to me. I love both the Bing and Rainer cherries. Just seeing them makes me happy. There is nothing better than sitting with a bowl of cherries. So I finally took the next step. I bought a cherry pitter. There are so many great cherry based recipes but not…

We used to go each year to celebrate my mom’s birthday at The Summit House. It is an English restaurant and…
Two years ago I was in Italy around this time of year. A group of friends went to stay in a villa in Tuscany. Ok, villa makes it sound so grand. Maybe a bit grander than the house really was, but it was Italy. Food was a huge part of our trip. We ate at…
I have fun news about Adventures in the Kitchen. The nice folks over at Hostess With The Mostess invited me to share a few of my recipes with their readers. I did my little happy dance and was humbled that they were fans of my little blog. Then I ran into the kitchen to start…
Summer is full of fresh vegetables and fruit. There are so many options that are both simple and fresh. Corn is one of my favorite summer treats. I love fresh sweet corn right off the cob. It is great in salads and this is one of my new favorites. The tangy jalapeno lime vinaigrette with…
Here in Southern California June gloom finally went away this weekend! It felt like summer had officially started. To celebrate I whipped up some Watermelon Limeade. It is my new favorite drink.
