Did you know “cacciatore’ is Italian for hunter? This style of meal was prepared hunter-style with whatever vegetables and meats were at hand.
Also, please take a moment to visit with me at Paranormal Dimensions! I’m sharing some behind the scenes details on my latest release in THE REBORN vampire novel series.
I want to thank all the bloggers that have been so helpful on this tour as well as understanding that I’m still trying to dig out from being sick! Thank you!
I really don’t know how the deviled ham sandwich, also known as a bocadito, got started in Cuba. All I know is that it was a staple of every party we ever had and it is always a favorite. The best thing: It’s EASY to make.
So here goes!
Deviled Ham Sandwiches
2 (two) 4 oz cans deviled ham spread (I use Underwood)
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup ketchup
1 8 oz bar cream cheese
Your choice of sandwich rolls or bread
Soften the cream cheese with the milk and ketchup. Blend until smooth and then add the deviled ham. Mix.
That’s it! There are variations that add mayo and/or chopped pimentos. I love pimentos so I may add them the next time to half of the mix for a little variety.
I like to refrigerate the mix for a couple of hours so it’s not so runny. Once it’s a little firmer, spread on the rolls and/or bread.
We love it on potato bread and we always cut off the crusts.
This was not a good football weekend in my house. Every single one of the teams I was rooting for lost. UGH. I guess I cursed them. Next week I guess I’ll root for the team I want to lose and maybe the reverse will happen? LOL!
Today’s Man Candy choice is Green Bay Packer quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Yes, the daable-check insurance guy. Funny commercials.
He’s a cutie with a great smile and also with great leadership and determination from what I can see. What do you think?
Good morning, everyone! Sorry to be a little late today, but it’s a very snowy day today in NJ! We have at least eight inches on the ground, bitter cold, and the plows have not come around yet. On top of that, we have a fox on the prowl through the yards and it’s been scaring away our little feral cats. Here are some photos of the snow!

Today I’ve got a free read for you from FAITH IN YOU, my contemporary romance re-release. It’s currently on sale for .99 to celebrate the release of TORI GOT LUCKY.
FAITH IN YOU is one of my personal favorites. When Paul Stone first came to life in NOW AND ALWAYS, I knew he was much more complicated than he seemed. I loved exploring the differences between his dysfunctional family and Carmen’s tight-knit clan. It was really heart wrenching at times as Paul struggles to accept the kind of unconditional love which Carmen has been lucky to have all her life.
In this scene, Paul has no where to go for Christmas Eve and has decided to go to his partner’s home where he meets Carmen, her irresistible younger sister. The attraction between them is instantaneous and powerful. Also humorous. That’s the other thing I loved about this book – the fun that Paul and Carmen have together.
I hope you enjoy it also! If you can’t see the excerpt below, you can click here!
