Homemade Spaghetti Sauce

Homemade Spaghetti Sauce has always been a challenge for me in the kitchen.   Nothing has stacked up to my favorite jarred version.  I never could figure out what that the missing ingredient was.  This time, I combined a few different recipes, with the addition of some new ingredients =  Perfection! Seriously.  I remember doing like 2-3 taste tests from the pot thinking, this is delicious.   Who even needs pasta noodles?  I wanted to just slice up my freshly baked Dutch Crunch bread and dunk in

Blueberry Mint Lemonade

You might remember reading my previous post for Mint Lemonade back in January.  It is still one of my favorite drinks.  I first tried Mint Lemonade several years ago from the Cleveland Airport Marriott.   They even made me a special pitcher just for me on my wedding day!  I can't get enough of it.  Hence, I knew I had to attempt to re-create it.  My version definitely came out a success (even though Marriott's version I will hold very close to my heart. ) Since I had several Meyer Lemons on

Looking for a super easy appetizer to make for your next party?  This tasty recipe is for you!  Especially if you do not want to turn on the oven - the perfect summer appetizer.

One of my friends happened to bring this
