A friend of mine from Fordham wrote this great essay about her Grandfather and the sauce he lovingly prepared. Now she lovingly prepares this same sauce. I have been voting for her everyday, but can't do it through my phone for some reason, so as we hit the road, I thought I'd share the link with all of you. If you have time to click through, read a great essay and vote for her, that would be great. You can vote once a day. Enjoy!
We share recipes and ask and answer questions from “How do you feed your family at night when you don’t walk in the door until 5:30 and you have a soccer game at 6 and piano lessons at 6:15 ... on opposite ends of town?” to “What’s your Thanksgiving menu this year?” to “Remember that punch you made at Christmas? What was the recipe?” So come on in to our virtual dinner group, pour yourself a glass of wine, and let’s start cooking together.

Great food/family recipe!
Who among us doesn't link family & food, food & family? I know the Dunican clan sure does!

Garlic Grilled Tomatoes
I made these last night for George's birthday. We all loved them! The kids could have easily eaten more, next time I will make more than 1 tomato/person! So simple, yet such great flavor.

Cream-Filled Chocolate Cupcakes
I made these for my son Brendan's 1st communion and they were a huge hit. I think they were the only cupcake (I made 3 different kinds) that were wiped out at the party -- and people were looking for more.
Now, I'm going to re-make them for Cara's birthday tomorrow, but I will be dying the cream in pinks and purples to go with her princess theme.
