~~posted by Jen Dee’s Thai Shrimp Welcome to our very first “Recipe Remix” post.

This will help many of you who are faced with …

~~posted by Jen Last night was the bi-weekly fridge cleaning at my house, and y’all know what that means! Anything I find that needs to be used is fair game for a new concoction! I had 2 packs of imitation crab meat that were purchased a couple weeks back with the intention of making my Crab Dip, but they got …

~by Nikki This might sound corny but, this is a recipe that was born of friendship. Which makes it precisely the kind of recipe I love.

~~posted by Jen 3 Cheese & Tomato Spread on half of a Pop Rice Today was crazy busy, I went out to lunch and a double feature at the movies with some friends and got home just in time to watch a little football before “Amazing Race” came on.

~by Nikki Bon-bon madness is catching on. Have you made yours yet? No? Well maybe a nice testimonial from our friend Lucia in Rhode Island might convince you. She says: I love this recipe!
