Wishes and Dishes

Happy Friday!   Mr. Wishes and I celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary yesterday and went out to dinner at a new Italian restaurant we had never been to before called “Six-50″.  It was really good food and a fun atmosphere.  I had a spinach and artichoke grilled chicken sandwich on ciabatta bread and pasta salad on the [...]

I’m really excited to share this recipe with you today.  This is an amazing dish that is popular in my hometown of Rochester, NY and the surrounding regions.  So popular, in fact, that some have suggested the dish be called “Chicken Rochester”.  This also just happens to be my husband’s favorite meal and he orders [...]

Forget the ice cream, the taste of summer has a new face, and we’re calling it Berry Brown Sugar Pizza. My mother–in–law shared this recipe with me a couple of months ago and I finally got around to trying it out after it had been sitting on my desk all this time.  The recipe was [...]

I hope everyone had a fun weekend!  We had beautiful, warm weather here in Rochester and we took full advantage of it and did a lot of work in our yard.  There’s still a long way to go to get our lawn the way we want it, but at least we made a dent.  Quite a different [...]

Happy Friday to all! I decided to be nice and give you (and myself) a good, healthy, nutritious recipe today after all the damage I did to us all with the abundance of sugar and cheese this week.  I’m not blaming the Monster Cookie Dough Cupcakes that I posted this week or anything, but I [...]

This is a wonderful winter we are having here this spring!  Yes, I’m back to say that the weather here in upstate NY is no bueno and I am currently listening to balls of ice fall from the sky while the temperatures are back to the 30′s.  Come on, Spring! The weather is not very [...]

I hope everyone had a great Easter!  What did you do? Ours was really nice.  We had brunch at my in-laws house which included amazing homemade Belgium waffles with fruit topping, baked french toast, and basically every other breakfast or lunch food you could possibly imagine.  It was quite the feast.  We had an Easter [...]

I hope everyone had a safe St. Patty’s day weekend.  Did anyone do anything  fun?  I went to church, grocery shopped, and watched my #1 show, “Revenge”.  So nothing really out of the ordinary and no corned beef and cabbage for me.  I’m not gonna lie – I will miss all the green food and [...]
