It seems that during times of medical crisis, many people’s partners behave unempathetically, unsupportively, neglectfully or apathetically. This… Read More »

Macaroni and Cheese with a Twist!
Every year, there is a fantastic event called A Taste of Yellow, hosted by Winos and Foodies. This is a food blogger event in support of LiveSTRONG Day, which is on May 13th this year. Each participant has to take a picture of some sort of yellow food, and include the LiveSTRONG wristband in the picture.
This year was the first time participating in the event, and because my father survived prostate cancer and my brother is fighting leukemia right now, I thought it would be more than appropriate for me to join in. I decided to make this macaroni and cheese recipe in support of my family. If you would like to read more about my family's battle with cancer, you can see the original post on my blog, SushiDay.com.
