Seize the Day! Put no trust in the morrow! — Horace
Nothing says home to me more that a plate or bowl of seafood gumbo! The aroma fills the home and lingers in a most pleasant way and if you are lucky enough to enjoy a few helpings then you really feel like you can kick back and watch the fire flies glow that night.
Seafood Gumbo… make it for someone you love… it takes time, preparation and quality ingredients … but the smiles you receive are worth it!

In making anything, it all boils down to using quality ingredients in the right generous proportions. If you take the time to make a good tiramisu… take a little more time, better ingredients and make the best!

My daughters have really spoiled me this holiday season… we have baked and cooked our way through the holidays! Fortunately, seafood is dietetic? Sure it is!!!! It’s funny how you can live some place for so long and miss some of the more fun — culinarily speaking — places to dine or shop. One of my favorite seafood places in the world is the Olde Port inn and we would often go there to celebrate a special occasion… but never did I realize there was their market right next door!
Some of my favorite seafood places are “Jimmy’s” in Boston (unfortunately closed) and the San Jacinto Inn at the battlegrounds in Houston ( original burned down)… but there is still the Ole Port Inn of Avila Beach, California and the wholesale market next door!
Guess what I am doing tonight?
Happy New Year and good thoughts for our men and women in service to our country.
What’s Christmas without a special ham and a uniquely yummy glaze? The glaze takes nearly as long to make as cooking the ham… but it is worth it!
You never know what will happen when my daughters come home to visit! They decided to make gingerbread cookies in the shape of the popular cellphone game “Plants vs. Zombies”… plus a tribute to their Biological Psychologist mother in the form of a Brain… ah… yummy… I guess?
Enjoy the season!
