Sharing is caring… My Southern husband is going to LOVE this recipe when I make it. Thank you in Diane’s Kitchen!
Large Sweet Vidalia Onions cooked on top of the stove and mixed with eggs, milk, cheese and Ritz Crackers. They are baked in the oven then topped with even more buttery Ritz Crackers. This makes for a great side dish or meal. A few years back my husband and I vacationed in Savannah Georgia. After […]

I love makeup but I also love to cook. Let’s celebrate every single day in our own way! Missing going to our fave Mexican eatery I had a craving for something. So I am making Margaritas and a crisp cold salad and this recipe. I am watching my calories since the pandemic has me filling all of my cravings for food and sweets. It is tough isn’t it?
Here is a recipe I enjoy for healthy Mexican sliders.
1 lb of ground turkey
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp black pepper
1tbsp chili powder
1 avocado mashed
8 tomato slices
4 reduced fat pepper jack cheese
Prepare in a medium bowl,mix together turkey,chili powder,garlic powder,and black pepper. Divide your turkey into 8 different portions to make a slider shape into a patty.
Place patty in frying pan. cook well for at least 3 to 5 minutes
Place burger on a bun and top with 2 tsp avocado, 1 tomato slice and 1/2 a cheese slice. OR switch it up and create your own version to suit your taste!
Life is delicious!
ENJOY!
Or for yourself and your Valentine too. You don’t need one to enjoy this yumminess!
Sweet and Sexy Asian Meatballs
1 package (12 oz.) of Italian meatballs (fully cooked) Or you can make them from scratch!
1/2 cup of Asian hoisin sauce
4 tsp. brown sugar
2 tablespoons of rice wine vinegar
1 tsp of Sriracha hot chili sauce
1 clove of fresh garlic minced
1/2 tsp. of ground ginger
At the end before serving add sliced green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds to garnish.
In a saucepan add all of the above ingredients but not the meatballs. Warm up the ingredients and keep stirring.
Next, add the meatballs,stir, cover and cook. Prepare on medium high heat until done.
I like to serve over Jasmine rice. Your house will smell divine! And serve with delicious aromatic jasmine tea 🍵 .
Add a dash of something naughty and sweet and some Prosecco and you are all set!
As I always say I love to COOK and entertain for one or for a crowd.
Enjoy these yummy bites!
Happy Valentines Day!

I just spent an amazing time in Arizona! One of my stays was at the JW Marriott Star ⭐️ Pass Resort & Spa. It is an amazzzing place! And the spa was beautiful too.
It was so refreshing to be back to Arizona again! The history and the food with a bit of heat 🔥 some things more spicy 🌶 than others. It is an awesome place to visit.
The highlights from my trip were visiting the city of De Tubac where arts and history and foodies are alive and kicking. I happened to be there when they had a festival going on. So many creatives in one place!
My fav’ place to eat was at Elvira’s. So delicious and the wait staff was awesome. The restaurant was Eye 👁 candy in itself. All the color from the moment you arrive. The art 🖼 and even using the powder room was a religious experience.
Connected to this place is a fabulous decor & gift shop! From angels, to hearts to art to glassware. I found a hand blown heart ❤️ piece I had to have. I’m going to place it in a gold ribbon and hang it from one of my chandeliers. I used to buy mugs, pot holders and tea towels when visiting places. Now when I travel I got smarter! I buy things that make me 😊 happy and that decor adorns my home or office. A daily reminder of my wonderful trips!
Also in this town there was a fabulous kitchen store Tumacookery I could have shopped there ALL day. If you’re a foodie or chef. What a fabulous and fun place!
Everywhere you travel 🌵 cactus of all kinds follow you. And they have skin care and cocktails 🍹 and other edible cacti treats too! The weather was amazing! 🌞
The people were charming and the sunsets were breathtaking! As I always say…explore beyond your door. Life is even more wonderful if you just get out the door and travel.

I know you want to look good for New Years eve…and here’s a little beauty secret for lush lashes.
It’s not just about the eye makeup and mascara it’s about what you feed your lashes too. As we age our lashes like hair tends to thin and fall out too.Use this before you go to sleep at night. Make sure you take all your makeup off first and use it sparingly.A little goes a long way.Just like you condition your hair the lashes need some love too!
Try my recipe for stronger longer lashes:
1/4 castor oil in a mini cup
1/4 cup of aloe vera gel
1/2 vitamin E oil
This mix will last you several weeks. As with any home-made recipe if it starts to smell funky throw it out.
Apply to your lashes nightly with a soft coat of the above mix on a disposable mascara brush. Next time you are at a major department store take the brush that they let you try mascara on with home with you.Rinse it and use it for this lash recipe. In a month or more you should notice longer,stronger lashes.
Lash on, Gorgeous!
To go to the Southern Women’s show! It’s that time of year and it’s almost here.
They will be celebrating their 25th YEAR! My how time flies.and YOU may be the winner of a set of tickets for 2. Live in sunny Jacksonville,Florida and want to join me for some FUN? I will be whipping up some beauty in the kitchen on the Cooking Stage.
