Spotlight on Food Bloggers ~ Recipes for the Holidays (or Any Day)

In 2015, I became a member of Bloggy Moms NetworkIt was a wonderful community, and in a previous blog post, I was happy to shine a spotlight on the members who were food bloggers. The BM Network was a great place to find recipes, cooking tips, meal ideas, and all kinds of food-related information. Unfortunately, the network no longer exists, and this blog post is being published a a replacement.

Since the holiday season is here, the first share is about preparing a wonderful and healthy “healthier” Christmas feast. And then there are a lot more foodie links that I'm sure you'll enjoy!!

Every Thanksgiving, I want all the pies! There are so many delicious pies to enjoy: Pumpkin Pie, Pecan Pie, Cherry Pie, Apple Crumb Pie, and don't forget pumpkin cheesecake and all the other desserts that come with Thanksgiving.  OK!  I like rolls too.




Hope you enjoy your holidays and every day before and after.

Chinese Fortune Cookies as American as Apple Pie

The Chinese fortune cookies are not an Asian invention, but rather an American one.  A conclusion based on my extensive research of Chinese history, tradition, and culture (i.e., watching a lot of kung fu movies).  There was a story circulated about rebels in the 13th or 14th century, using them to pass secret messages to each other about their war plans to overthrow the Mongols. Pure fiction. But you must admit thatthe  plot sure has the makings of an epic saga.



Alas!  The truth is the Chinese fortune cookie is as American as apple pie, and they make great party favors.  


Would you like to make your own homemade fortune cookies?  


Well, you can!

This Sunbeam kitchen accessory is a must-have.
