Pink Harold
Hi and happy spring! We made it through the cold and gray winter here in Kentuckiana. As all of the beautiful flowers start to bloom, filling our lives with color, I thought it would be fun to share a recipe that I like to make around Easter each year. It’s a creamy fruit salad that my family has lovingly named “Pink Harold".
No Bake Fruitcake
Do YOU like fruitcake?? Have you ever asked someone if they like fruitcake? The reaction most people have is “Thanks but no thanks.” However!! I was introduced to this no bake recipe abut 40 years ago, and it’s unlike any fruitcake I had ever tasted. Once I sampled it, I was hooked, and I have been making it ever since.
Tuscan Crock Pot Bread
I LOVE BREAD! One of life’s simple pleasures is a great loaf of fresh baked bread. After attending a “no knead” bread making class, I decided to explore alternative options for easy bread making. During my journey, I came across several recipes for easy homemade bread, baked in a slow cooker or crock pot. After some experimentation, I combined a few of the ideas from various recipes to create my own special version of crock pot bread. Enjoy!
Curry Chicken Rolls
I miss the old world charm of the Elmwood Inn in Perryville, Kentucky. This recipe for curry chicken rolls is one they used to serve at their famous High Tea service. If you’re hosting any kind of party, these are the perfect addition to your menu. Enjoy!
Creamy Olive Nut Spread
Many years ago I discovered this recipe at an evening of playing Bunco. Remember Bunco?! On this particular night, someone made tea sandwiches with the most delicious spread and I immediately fell in love. The combination of the creamy, salty, and nutty taste is the perfect trio of flavors. If you’ve never had it, give it a try!
Asian Ramen Salad
One of my favorite vegetarian salads is this Asian Ramen Salad. I love the crunch of the Napa Cabbage combined with the toasted sunflower seeds, sliced almonds and Ramen Noodles.
Irish Potato Soup
In honor of St. Patrick’s Day, when it’s said that everyone is a bit little Irish, I believe it’s appropriate to have a potato dish.
I believe you’ll think you have found your pot of gold when you eat a bowl of this wonderful soup, after all, its made with the luck of the Irish.
Southern Decadent Chocolate Cake
This chocolate cake is a great way to celebrate Fat Tuesday and your sweet tooth - making this recipe seems too easy to be true! It starts with a cake mix and with the addition of a few more ingredients, it’s all mixed and baked in one 9"x13" pan. Couldn’t be easier and the chocolate frosting just adds another layer of decadence. Once you have tried this, let me know how much you enjoy it. I believe you will be making this again and again! Laissez les bon temps rouler!
So Sweet Snack Mix
Hi Valentine! I absolutely love making treats to share with my neighbors and friends, and Valentine’s Day is the perfect time to give them a homemade sweet treat.
Super Bowl Super Sliders
These party sandwiches are best served warm, when the cheese is gooey and the buns are buttery and toasty. Treat yourself and your guests to these for your Super Bowl celebration. TOUCHDOWN!
Cheesy Ranch Potato Bake
Cheese, potatoes and ranch, oh my! I know there are lots of recipes for cheese and potato baked casseroles out there, but this one is just a bit different – a secret ingredient discovered through serendipity!
I hope you love this recipe as much as I do - it has brought years of smiles and full bellies at many of our parties and holiday celebrations. May this recipe become a stand-out favorite for you and your family too!
Amaretto Celebration Punch
As we approach the last days of 2020, I thought it would be appropriate to end with a celebration drink! This recipe makes a lovely, icy cocktail with orange juice, lemonade, tea and Amaretto. I recommend topping off with a lemon-lime soda or ginger-ale and garnishing with sliced fruit and maraschino cherries. Drop in the straw and you’re all set to party!
Holiday Sugar Cookies
One of my earliest memories of making cut-out sugar cookies, lovingly called “cookie cutters,” was with my mom and brothers during the holidays. Over the years, I have collected many different cookie cutters from boutiques and shops both local and abroad. I love using them, because it always brings back so many amazing memories. My wish is that you will take this recipe, gather these simple ingredients, and create some memories in your kitchen with family and cookie cutters. Happy Holidays!

This fresh cranberry salad is a treat during the holidays and has become a tradition for our family. Bright and tangy, this recipe serves a crowd, so it's perfect for any large gathering. An amazing combination of cranberries, oranges, pineapple, apples and walnuts, it’s an explosion of tastes and flavors your family is sure to enjoy. Make sure to get a good portion during the first round of helpings, because it’s only around once a year!
