I fell in love with this Lemon Tart when I first started to eliminate sugar from my diet. I already love Lemony things and this tart is so smooth. With all this flavor and buttery crust, you really don't need a huge piece to be satisfied. This is a great shareable for any party, too.

Island Fish Tacos

Curtis and I had the privilege to take a cruise with our oldest daughter a few years ago. She was hired by NCL as a performer and we decided to surprise her on one of the trips. I absolutely had to have these tacos every day when Caitlin introduced us to this little hole in the wall grill on the Islands. I've tried to duplicate it the best I could and found this was as close as I could get without robbing the restaurant of their recipe. J/K

I was first introduced to these little bites of heaven for horses when one of our volunteers made them to treat our rescued horses. You can see how Hayden couldn't wait to eat one or 10! He would do ANYthing for these treats and could sense when a treat was in your pocket. Let's just say your horse (and all other equines) will mug you for these special treats. And they make great gifts.

I have cherished many furry little felines during my life. Many of them were fearless protectors of WHY Ranch. They owned every inch of the 5 acres ranch in Las Vegas. Before we moved back to MO, we found some very loving homes for them at surrounding ranches. Mufasa had the biggest personality ever and when I made these treats for him, he followed me around all day. Oh, how I miss him. I didn't have to miss having a barn cat for long. Our neighbor's cat, Myrtle adopted us right away. So, these treats are now for that mysterious little huntress.

These little grain-free dog treats are easy to make and can be shaped into anything your heart desires. I generally just roll this recipe into a ball for every day treats, but this Valentine’s Day, I'm using a silicone heart shaped mold to make Mercedes and Zsa-Zsa feel the love.

Now, we'll need something to wash down all these great Game Day snacks.

Margaritas and beer are good staples for any party. But, this time, I thought I'd add a little Bloody Mary libation and the new dark cola float! It’s the perfect way to celebrate a win (or drown your sorrows if your team loses).

I selected this salsa specifically for my Super Bowl potluck party because it is bright, fresh, and scrumptious by itself, with chips, or over fish tacos. Any way you decide to serve it, it'll be a popular dish at your party, too.

Warm Artichoke and Bacon dip with Pita chips, is inspired by one of my favorite chefs, Giada. I made a little change by adding some portobello mushrooms for a little more of an earthy taste. This is a great recipe to make a few days ahead and just warm it up on Game Day...if there's still any left. I generally use a small crock pot and set it on warm throughout the party. Don't be surprised if the dip is gone before the evening is over.

These are super easy to make, easy to eat and you can make them the day before and throw them in the oven the day of the event and enjoy!

Ready to “Clear the Clutter?”

I chose this particular DIY recipe for you to try while taking on this week's Resolve. Clearing the clutter can be applied to all aspects of your life, and that includes clearing out the toxic cleaners and your home environment. Not only does this natural all purpose spray Spring clean your house, but, you can add a few drops of Basil, Douglas Fir, Vetiver or InTune to an essential oil diffuser to stay focused and have a clear mind for any task you're taking on.

Nona is an endearing Italian name for "Grandma" and probably the name I'll use when my bonus daughters begin having their wee ones. In making raviolis, you need to start with a basic dough. Do you know why Raviolis are such a tradition in my home? Because it brings our family together especially since Ravis take ALL day to make. "All Day?," yes, All day! There are three parts to making authentic ravioli: The Sauce, The Pasta Dough and the Stuffing aka Filling! So, get ready for fun and creating family memories.

Because we can use all the luck we can get in 2021, I’ve chosen two recipes to bring in good fortune at the stroke of midnight. The Vasilopita Greek Cake is made with a special surprise inside, and you can drink in good forturne with a Lucky New Year’s cocktail.

Ohhh, the weather outside is getting frightful—but a soothing Hot Toddy in your hands is sooooo delightful!

Hot Toddies may be old-fashioned, but I think it’s time to revive the ol’ recipe and bring it into this century with natural, organic and holistic essential oils!

These Paw cookies with peanut butter are the perfect trick for-a treat for your fur babies this Halloween. They’re all natural and sure to be a Spooktacular hit!

Whole wheat pancakes are a great way to get some whole grains in your diet. They are nutty, warm, filling, and in many ways preferable to white wheat pancakes. And did I mention they’re delicious?
