If you're looking for a delicious dessert, there's nothing like a good pie, and these two are killer!

It's almost strawberry-picking time, which is a good excuse to try this great dipping sauce for strawberries.

It's an adults-only sauce, as it contains bourbon, and quite delicious.

Speaking of sauces, this Jezebel sauce is very easy to make, lasts forever in the frig and is great with grilled meat, egg rolls or (my favorite) cream cheese and crackers.

And speaking of easy, I fixed country-style ribs in the crockpot the other day using just three ingredients. They were tender, sweet-spicy and scrumptious!

I'd like to share a new shrimp recipe that is easy and great for Lent or any other time! I frequently experiment with shrimp dishes and this one is a keeper for 2010.

I call it Super Spicy Shrimp, mainly because one of the ingredients, chipotle chilies in adobo sauce is quite spicy (and delicious!) You can add more or less than what is in the recipe, depending on your taste for the fiery. It comes in a jar that will keep in the refrigerator a long time.

This week's recipe is one of my favorite ways to cook chicken.

It's easy, tastes delicious and is great with rice, potatoes or polenta.

I've been making it a long time. I recently found the recipe in my mom's recipe box where I had sent it to her and it was dated December 1970.

You can use cut-up whole chickens, breast pieces or legs and thighs (my dad's favorite.)

Try it; you'll like it.
