The other reason is because right before Thanksgiving, my mother would make her Pecan Tarts. She was a real southern belle - she was born and raised in Mississippi. … [Read more...]
I mentioned a few days ago about the The Motherhood Virtual Cooking Class that I would be co-hosting with The Motherhood. The class was so much fun, and myself and the other bloggers who were co-hosting, practically left drooling (okay, I have to admit...I'm pretty sure I did!). Chef George Duran prepared some great recipes using leftover … [Read more...]

Ingredients: 1 cup (2 cubes) butter, … [Read more...]
