A holiday classic reborn as bars — tender shortbread, cheesecake swirls, a ribbon of chocolate, and spiced pumpkin custard. Inspired by my mother’s Thanksgiving pie, these nostalgic squares bring warm kitchen memories to every dessert table.

French Country Ham Quiche is inspired by the rustic meals and leisurely garden tables featured in Sunset Country French Cooking. Made with ham, asparagus, scallions, and a blend of cheeses baked into a rich custard, this From Scratch Sensations recipe is perfect for brunch, luncheon, or a simple supper.

A relaxed New Year’s Eve menu for gathering without fuss — familiar flavors, comforting dishes, and a table meant for sharing. This casual supper brings together nostalgic recipes, easy bites, and festive sips for welcoming the new year in good company.
