I was on The Dark Sticky Show with Ron Fitzgerald!

Greetings, dear meows! As I’m now in the process of promoting my book The Creepy Culinary Adventures of Nia Luna, I wanted to share this groovy interview with The Master of The Dark Realm himself, Gothic Illusionist Ron Fitzgerald! He and I have been lurking through each other’s cupboards for years. He’s a great friend…

Rigatoni in Goat Cheese Cream Sauce.

Greetings, dear meows! I want to thank you all for the outpouring of well wishes and support regarding the release of my debut novel, The Creepy Culinary Adventures of Nia Luna and what a week it’s been! I’m back at it with cooking & posting so I wanted to drop off this delicious pasta dish…

I wrote a book!

Greetings, dear meows! I know this is a major shift from my usual food posts, but still cooking related… In a very unique way.

Red Plum & Sour Cherry Galette with Pistachio Olive Oil Crumble

Now here’s where…

Broccoli Cheddar Frittata

Hello there, dear meows! Eggs aren’t just for the mornings… I enjoy a good breakfast type brunch, lunch or dinner. This one’s really quick, simple, and easy. It’s a lovely way to use up any vegetables, meats, and cheeses you might have as well! So what is a frittata, no one asked? 😹 It’s an…

Pork Schnitzel with Braised Cabbage & Apples

Hello, dear meows! With all that’s going on around us, one of the things that always brings me back to my center is cooking. I enjoy eating all different types of cuisine ( cause I’m a slob and love to eat… 😜 ) and can sometimes be a creature of habit as far as the…

Moroccan Chicken with Saffron Orzo & Chickpea Stew

Well hello, dear meows! I’ve been cooking up a storm this year, and this Mystic Meals creation was a huge hit. You’d think those chicken thighs would be the star of the show, but that stew took it to another level. So my focus here is to highlight the side dish that truly deserves center…
