This rhubarb coffee cake with sour cream is an "any time of day" cake that my mom used to make. Good warm or cold, this cake is incredibly moist inside, while the surface has a tiny bit of crisp from the sugar granules. Tangy rhubarb and sour cream are offset by the sweet cake and sugar sprinkle. It is DE-lish!

Carrot and Raisin Salad II
This is the carrot-raisin salad I made in sixth grade home economics class, and it's still a favorite! Made with crisp shredded carrots, plump raisins, and a creamy dressing, the recipe strikes the perfect balance of textures and flavors.
Shrimp Linguine
This shrimp linguine recipe is quick and easy to make for a dinner party, a romantic meal, or just a quick family dinner. Already cooked salad shrimp works great! I also occasionally substitute chicken for shrimp for another great flavored dish!
