My wife and I are 70 years old and after spending my career with technology, I understand why others may think it’s easy for me to use new tools and devices. Nevertheless, I am often amazed at how hard people make things, and how much time is wasted in the […]
So what is a recipe about Mongolian Beef doing on a Kentucky Taste Today food blog? Well it’s simple. We love Asian food and guess what? The folks in Kentucky do also. After ordering some recent takeout I dug up an old recipe I secured when eating in New York […]
