Every Christmas my mother-in-law makes her signature spinach artichoke dip, because the cousins love it! Although this dish reminds me of a special occasion, the recipe is simple enough that I can make it any day of the week.

I’ve been making this banana bread recipe for my family for years now. I can’t seem to keep a loaf of it around the house for more than a couple of hours after it emerges from the oven. As soon as I pull it out, hot and fresh with chocolate oozing, the kids come barreling in begging for slices. The ingredient that sets this loaf apart from other banana breads is the strong brewed coffee. Although most people wouldn’t know it’s in there, something special happens to the texture and flavor, making it a reliable family favorite we return to…

They were the largest fish cakes he’d ever seen. (Me too.) I think we managed to fit only four…

I name these niko niko (smiley) onigiri because they make everyone smile! These onigiri are popular with kids as they can have fun with their food. This is also a great way to introduce foods to kids who are finicky with what they eat! Nori cutters are available from some speciality Japanese stores and on the Internet. There is a variety of cute cut-outs to create many faces easily using nori sheets. I’ve used linguine to attach the ears to these niko niko onigiri.
