Recipes, menu ideas and tips from my Facebook posts about our Sunday evening dinner parties. I develop many of the recipes from scratch and each one is tested in my own kitchen before it is posted. The "House Boys" (Dave and Tim) are my official taste testers. I also do all of the food photography myself. I try to accompany each recipe with a history or personal story to carry on the tradition of sharing good food with family and friends.
Welcome
Welcome to the Old Fluffy Diva's website for recipes, menu ideas and tips from my Facebook posts about the regular Sunday evening dinner parties at our home. I develop many of the recipes from scratch and each one is tested in my own kitchen before it is posted. The "House Boys" (Dave and Tim) are my official taste testers. I also do all of the food photography myself. I try to accompany each recipe with a history or personal story to carry on the tradition of sharing good food with family and friends.
