Savory Split Pea Soup
This soup is SO easy and SO good. I can say that with some authority because I haven't always been a fan of split pea soup. It reminds me of my days as a cruise staff member schmoozing on deck during Glacier Bay Day in Alaska. As a cruise staffer I was required to...

Baked Broccoli Gratin
This recipe is a STAPLE in my house. I honestly make it at least once a week. Kula Baby will always eat it, no matter his mood. I turn a blind eye to the fact that he is eating the green stuff because it is attached to the yummy bread and cheese topping 🙂 Baked...
