Every now and then we must indulge and eat some of our favorite dishes without any guilt. One thing that I never make but purchase at Wegman’s, my favorite grocery store, are crab cakes. Do this makes me feel guilty? No. They make the best crab cakes ever.
 
I love to prepare my meals at home, since that gives me control of the ingredients I want to use or not to use. By now you may know that I only cook with extra virgin olive oil, fresh herbs, good meats, poultry and seafood and some of the seasonings that I use, I developed. Not only everything tastes fresh but delicious and healthier.
