The Side Dish That Will Take Center Stage!

The Side Dish That Will Take Center Stage! by Shari, The Saucy Gourmet

Last Wednesday, I bought a boneless spiral slice ham at Sam's Club thinking with all the cooking I was going to be doing for the next couple of night at Rolling Pin, it would be great to have some leftovers in the fridge.

Childhood Memories....Christmas Bread and French Toast

Childhood Memories....Christmas Bread and French Toast by Shari, The Saucy Gourmet

As the Christmas Holidays get closer and closer (I swear every year, they come quicker and quicker) I start to reminisce about "the old days". Growing up, Christmas in our home was always magical.

Good Things Come in Small Packages! by Shari, The Saucy Gourmet

About 2 weeks ago, one of the marketing representatives from PAMA Pomegranate Liquor contacted me and asked if I would be interested in trying a sample of their product, especially since November is National Pomegranate Month.

The Perfect Salad for a November Meal

The Perfect Salad for a November Meal by Shari, The Saucy Gourmet

Yesterday, I decided I'd better use some of the pomegranates I purchased for the Oyster Shooter "photo op". I have read that a pomegranate will last six to seven days unrefrigerated or up to three months in the fridge.

Oh No, Foiled Again

Oh No, Foiled Again by Shari, The Saucy Gourmet
