For years I’ve avoided Classic Hummingbird Cake. Honestly, it wasn’t really that much of an issue since I lived in areas where it was unlikely to pop up all over as it does here in the South. You’ll see it here, at picnics, potlucks, and at all kinds of get-togethers.

Classic Hummingbird Cake – a turntable makes frosting so much easier.
Blueberry Nut Keto Granola. This stuff came to me by accident – a rather innocent-looking package, I didn’t think much about it at first. It sat around for a bit. Then I opened it. Then I tried it. And then it was instant addiction.
I’m always getting great ideas from the grocery deli. I don’t necessarily buy, but def use them for inspiration. For me that’s almost better because not only can I usually make something similar at home, like this Spicy Thai Noodle Salad cheaper, I can customize to my taste and any dietary needs, too.

Hi guys! Hope all is well in your neck of the woods. Me, I’m still hanging tight and trying to spread comfort through food! I think food has become ever so more important to so many of us during this pandemic. If any of you are psychologists, feel free to comment! And part of that comfort, for me, is trying to make fun, easy things with basic ingredients that will help shake up the dinner routine. Or should that be dinner rut! That’s where the magic of this Roasted Red Pepper Sauce comes in.

I must be getting old and decrepit (better than the alternative, as they say!) and for sure, I find my memory slipping a bit here and there. (What did I come into this room for is just the beginning, lol!) After I made this Classic Crazy Broccoli Salad I remembered I already have another version here on my site. That one is a lighter no Mayo version. So that’s why I’m calling this one “Classic.” (And it really is!)
