Tuscan Fish Stew

Tuscan Fish Stew

I spent a few days in Florence about 30 years ago, and while I don't remember much, I do recall my surprise at how delicious the Tuscan fish stew was. What I found so interesting was how herbs like oregano, sage, and rosemary, which I'd only associated with meat, were also used with seafood. Also, FYI just in case any old-school Tuscans are coming over: I hear that for this to qualify as an official Italian fish stew you need use at least 5 different types of seafood, which is both insane and adorable. Serve with crusty bread.

Sad Cake

Sad Cake

This cake is called sad cake because the cake looks sad. It actually "falls" during baking and is a flat cake. It may be sad looking, but it is moist, chewy, and sweet. It does not need frosting.

Bourbon Little Smokies

Bourbon Little Smokies

My grandmother makes smokies this way, and I have to say I have never seen a similar recipe. It's a nice twist on a recipe that has only a few variations.

Ritz Seven Layer Bars

Ritz Seven Layer Bars

These Ritz seven layer bars are a classic with a twist - the base layer of salty cracker crumbs makes a great contrast with the chocolate, butterscotch, walnut, and coconut layers.

Fish Chowder

Fish Chowder

This fish chowder recipe is one of the best chowders I've had; my kids love it too! The fishermen of Bodega Bay, California, shared this favorite, quick, and easy recipe with my sister during a fish festival. We top the chowder with bacon bits and a few shakes of hot sauce for a little spice. Enjoy!
