Goat Cheese and Dill Quiche in a Hash Brown Crust
This Goat Cheese and Dill Quiche in a Hash Brown Crust is without a doubt the best quiche I have ever made. The creamy, silky filled with an abundance of dill meets a crispy hash brown crust! Hello! What's wrong with this? NOTHING! Everyone loved it. My husband is out of town is not pleased that I made it without him. His birthday is next week so I will do it again.

Bridget Jones’s Pan-Fried Salmon with Pine Nut Salsa
This Pan-Fried Salmon with Pine Nut Salsa is what Patrick Dempsey’s character tells Renée Zellweger’s Bridget Jones that he would have brought her on their imaginary second date in Bridget Jones’s Baby. ‘From Ottolenghi,’ says Dempsey, ‘delicious and healthy!’ The recipe didn’t even exist on their menu. Ottolenghi put it is his cookbook called, Ottolenghi Simple. I actually do not like olives or capers, but I have to say, it is absolutely delicious. I am even going to make it again.

Currant-Orange Irish Soda Bread
I know that it's a day after the fact, but I made this bread yesterday for lunch and it was so good that I had to post it. Our orange trees are bursting with blossoms in our backyard and the intense aroma lured my outside. I also happened to have leftover currants.
Ireland's famous freckled quick-bread is expected on St. Patrick's Day, but the currants and orange zest in this loaf make it wonderful for year around baking. Sliced soda bread makes fantastic toast -- give it a try!

Blackout Chocolate Banana Bread
This is what happens when banana bread meets chocolate! My daughter Zoe made this Blackout Chocolate Banana Bread. It's pretty spectacular and super moist and seriously delicious. Whole wheat flour lends a nuttiness to the cake, but feel free to replace it with more all-purpose if that’s what you have on hand. Thanks for bringing me a slice Zoe! Now, can you bring me another slice?!
