One more Christmas post, and I swear I'll move on to 2018:
I'm not a lover of eggnog, and unless its the super thick cavity-and-cellulite-causing kind in the carton, boiled custard isn't my jam (the exception: that made by my chidhoold next door neighbor, an older woman we called Aunt Lois. ...
Pumpkin Risotto
I try around each Halloween to make something festive and of the season. Whether its a hollowed out pumpkin filled with ground beef stuffing, roasted slices of the gourd along pork chops, creamy pumpkin bisque, or this, my favorite pumpkin recipe since I stumbled upon it; Pumpkin Risotto from ...
Altius, Pittsburgh
Last week, I had the pleasure of travelling to Pitsburgh with the Speed Art Museum to view some incredible galleries, collections and works (more on that Friday). I was fortunate enough to be travelling with a group of 20 who seemed to love food just as much as I do. Thursday night, ...
Gingerbread Dreams
As soon as fall weather hit growing up, my grandma would begin turning out these incredible Autumnal desserts... Spice cake with homemade caramel frosting (I can still smell that frosting- a recipe I've yet to locate), fried apple pies, butterscotch meringue pie, Italian Creme cake. All ...

Twice in the last week, I've had the opportunity to grab food and drink at Decca Restaurant in downtown Louisville. I'll be honest- for some reason, Decca was never a place I took the initiative to visit on my own. Instead, I've only ever visited at the invitation of someone else. ...
Pecan and Molasses Bundt Cake
I love the flavor of molasses. That dark, smokey almost-honey harkens memories of sitting at my grandparents’ breakfast table on Sunday mornings. My grandpa would mix his Sorghum- he pronounced it SARgum- with butter to spread on his breakfast biscuits, and it seemed like the smell would fill ...
On the Cheese Plate
It's 5pm, you're headed home from the office, and know that tonight, you're either eating leftover meatloaf or ordering pizza. All is well with both options, until a girlfriend reaches out and wants to grab a glass of wine, or you remember you're hosting book club, or your boyfriend calls and ...
Benedictine
Benedictine…. Mention it to most people outside the Louisville area and chances are they’ll have no clue what you’re talking about. Here, though? We’re familiar with the rich, somewhat salty, somewhat sweet spread that makes even something as simple as a water cracker or a ...
