Slow Cooker Mulligatawny with Beef and Mushrooms
Guys! I have so much to tell you that I don’t know where to start! I realize that to you I may not have gone anywhere, but the last 3 posts were all written almost 2 weeks ago. In that time I have gotten a tan, sailed on my first cruise, taken my children to…

Saffron Rice with Meatballs; Quick Spiced Potatoes and Cauliflower with Baby Shrimp: A Review of The Bengali Five Spice Chronicles
One of the big perks of blogging is being given cookbooks to review (I know you are shocked to hear me say that!). I try to only accept books that I would be interested in at least some of the dishes. You can imagine that I often get offered baking books that I am super…
