I'm quite the sandwich fanatic. And while I do make them at home, I actually prefer a sandwich that someone else makes for me in a sandwhich shop or deli. Quite often, the sandwich places we go to have a sweet & slightly spicy pepper relish that David and I are always sure to get.
About a week ago, we were planning on grilling some of the Farmer John Smoked Sausages that I had sent to me and I had this relish on my mind. We headed to the grocery store and I looked in the pickle and
Wente Vineyards…and Wines
As someone who loves food memories, it's exciting to have the chance to meet a fifth generation winegrower, Karl Wente of Wente Vineyards, and hear the history of his family's vineyard.
Recently, I was invited to breakfast to do exactly that. I had the opportunity to meet one-on-one with Karl Wente of Wente Vineyards, which is the country’s oldest, continuously operated family-owned winery.
I met Karl at Verandah, inside the beautiful Four Seasons Hotel Las Vegas. We sat in

Mom’s Macaroni Pasta Salad
There are so many versions of Macaroni Pasta Salad, isn't there? If you went to a potluck and 10 different people brought Macaroni Salad, I bet you'd end up with 10 different versions.

Grilled Pita Pizzas
If you love homemade pizza, but don't want to heat up your oven during the summer, grilled pita pizzas is your answer. I will show you how easy they are to make, plus give you lots of topping ideas.
Our family loves to have mini parties all through out the year. There are no "official" events -- like birthdays and holidays -- happening in our home this week. However, that doesn't stop us from celebrating the everyday! We decided to have fun with a Grilled Pita Pizzas Party that each family
Sweet & Spicy Barbecue Sauce
I do use bottled barbecue sauces, but making your own homemade barbecue sauce is soooo easy.
This recipe is for our favorite -- it's sweet, it's spicy...we love it. I like it the best with chicken. It's the sauce I used on my Grilled Butterflied Whole Chicken and even typing about it right now makes me crave it!
