Chicken Parmesan
My daughter, Grace, has been amazing while I’ve been doing chemo. She’s made many dinners, cleaned the kitchen, organized the pantry, and brought me snacks and cold drinks.

Guest blogger Jessica from Beauty Marks again. My husband and I love any kind of Moroccan-style couscous dish. I had a bunch of fresh apricots and plums lying around that I knew we wouldn’t finish with our girls away from home, so I employed my Google-fu and found a recipe from the BBC that I […]

Continue ReadingSmothered Chicken
Today’s blog is from my brother-in-law, Russell from Rochester, NY. I’ve always served this over rice. I used a 5-lb chicken, which was still too small to be labeled a “roasting chicken”.

This is guest blogger, Leila (Valencia, CA). While I was pet sitting for a neighbor I picked up a copy of an “O” magazine to read as I was waiting for the dog and cat to do their thing. I spotted a name that looked familiar. It was my other neighbor’s son-in-law from Lottie and […]

Today’s blog is from my brother-in-law, Russell from Rochester, NY. Can chicken potpie still be considered comfort food if you leave out the crust? I think so, especially since this version includes lots of creamy potatoes, all the familiar vegetables, and a couple of surprises to boot. Frozen peas are a good substitute when fresh […]
