Brenda's Forty Favorites

A decade ago, Brenda wasn’t particularly excited to turn 30. Irrelevant though the reasons are now, it seemed imperative to find a way to make the birthday better. As cooking brings joy, Brenda settled on a plan and selected 30 of her favorite foods. Filling her apartment with friends to share all her favorites proved to be a perfect way to celebrate that milestone.

For this birthday, Brenda has updated the list to include her top 40 Favorites and is sharing it with you. We all know that Spaghetti is Brenda’s first favorite for dinner and no one is surprised that many of the others are desserts.
