Recipes are just guidelines. I have said that comment to people for years. Yes they are necessary when you start a new recipe and you liked how that turned out. But, and here it comes you make it again and say to yourself I wonder if I added this what that would do or how it would taste.
That is how recipes get changed or tweaked like I like to say. I am always tweaking, twisting, and improving on my r...

Artifical Ingrediants, Not @ Divadish!

Posted by Gianna E. Ianos on Tuesday, November 30, 2010, In : Artifical Ingredients! 
While stores keep adding new items for our Christmas feast, have you ever looked @ the ingredients list!?

 It might add shelf Life, but it does not add Human -Shelf- Life!

I do not believe in it for myself or my clients. My Philosop...
