Cheese Snackles
Cheese Snackles - My brother-in-law Russell came last week and brought us a bag of these fabulous cheese crackers. They were so good, I asked him to get the recipe from his friend, Rose-Marie, who is constantly asked to bring them to social gatherings. She got the recipe from her friend Ann who died at age 50 in 1989, so she is glad to have her friend remembered. Thank you Rose-Marie!

Sausages with Herbed Beans
This is a great weeknight meal. It's very similar to cassoulet, which is a rich, slow-cooked casserole originating in the south of France, containing sausage and other meats. The beauty of this recipe is that unlike cassoulet, it cooks very quickly. I sent my husband, Eric, the shopping list via text message, he actually bought already cooked Portuguese smoke cured sausage seasoned with garlic and paprika. I thought it wouldn't work, but it was really delicious and I will be making this again.

Lemon & Thyme Potato Gratin
I made this Lemon Thyme Potato Gratin for a client (which I will have to admit, I had never made before!). She called me a week later and said it was the best potato gratin they had ever had, and can I make it again for a party using her pan. It's based on a Martha Stewart recipe. I used cream instead of milk - maybe that's why it was so good! Unfortunately, I did not take a picture of the final product because I delivered it par baked...

Chocolate Pots de Crème
Attention all chocoholics! This Chocolate Pots de Crème is perfect for a dinner party because you can make them a day in advance. There are few desserts as luxurious and satisfying as a chocolate pots de crème. Each spoonful of this French classic is a study in decadent simplicity, delivering a deeply rich, velvety smooth, and intensely chocolatey experience that's surprisingly easy to achieve. Unlike a mousse, which is light and airy, a pots de crème is dense and spoonable, with a texture similar to a thick pudding or a soft custard. Warning! It's very delicious!

Milk Chocolate Florentine Cookies
Milk Chocolate Florentine Cookies are so good. These lacy cookies allow a sneak of melted chocolate-y goodness that’s to come as well as an elegant air to a simple recipe. I find this is the perfect alternative to drab sugar cookies and a great way to enjoy not only the process, but the outcome.

Party Potatoes
Party potatoes are also called Funeral Potatoes. Funeral potatoes are a traditional Mormon potato hotdish, or casserole, that originated in the U.S. state of Utah. The dish usually consists of hash browns or cubed potatoes, cheese (cheddar or Parmesan), onions, cream soup (chicken, mushroom, or celery) or a cream sauce, sour cream, and is topped with butter and corn flakes or crushed potato chips. Reminiscent of my mid-west upbringing, where every side dish had a crunchy topping. However, this recipe is minus the crunch!
