Cindy and Bob Fertsch keep their son J0amie's memory alive by helping children and adults with disabilities ride the waves.

Jamie loved the beach and the ocean.

He was the inspiration for the organization, 'Heart of Surfing,' which his parents founded in 2014.

Sadly, Jamie passed away after a sudden seizure in March 2020.

Cindy and Bob keep Jamie's legacy alive by hosting surfing events for individuals with disabilities.

Events take place every weekend during the summer at various shore points.

A recent event was sponsored by Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, which provided volunteers, equipment, and donated $5,000.

These Ritz Cracker Sandwiches Vanish Before the Party Starts

Ritz Party Sandwiches transform familiar buttery crackers into warm, savory appetizers that are exactly the right size for grabbing from a crowded table. Cheese and flavorful sandwich fillings sit between pairs of crackers, creating miniature bites with a crisp exterior and rich center. As they bake, the cheese melts, the filling warms, and the crackers become even more aromatic without losing the delicate texture that makes Ritz crackers so recognizable. Each small sandwich delivers salt, butter, cheese, and savory flavor in one or two bites, which explains why people rarely stop after taking only one. The recipe does not require elaborate pastry, specialty bread, or hours of preparation, yet the completed tray looks more thoughtful than simply opening a box of crackers. It is party food built around convenience without tasting like the cook took an obvious shortcut.

Grandma Was Right About Potatoes and Onions

Sometimes the most memorable food begins with ingredients so ordinary that their transformation feels almost unfair. Southern Fried Taters and Onions take potatoes, sliced onion, garlic, oil, salt, and pepper and turn them into a skillet full of golden edges, tender centers, and deep savory flavor. As the potatoes cook, some pieces crisp against the hot pan while others remain soft enough to soak up the sweetness released by the onions. That mix of textures is what makes a simple recipe so hard to leave alone. Every serving contains a few crunchy bites, several buttery-soft slices, and caramelized onion tucked between them. No cream sauce, specialty cheese, or expensive meat is required to make the skillet smell like a proper country breakfast or old-fashioned family supper.

This Pineapple Dump Cake Has a Cheesecake Surprise

Pineapple dump cake already combines juicy fruit with a buttery golden topping, but adding a cheesecake-style layer makes the familiar dessert richer and much more interesting. The pineapple provides tropical sweetness and enough acidity to cut through the creamy center, while the cake topping develops crisp patches above the soft filling. Because the ingredients are layered rather than carefully mixed and shaped, every scoop reveals a slightly different balance of fruit, cream cheese, and buttery cake. Some portions carry extra golden topping, while others reach the soft cheesecake pockets underneath. The dessert looks rustic rather than overly polished, which is useful when the goal is generous flavor without spending the afternoon decorating a cake or rolling pastry.

Five Minutes Is Apparently All This Fudge Needs

Homemade fudge sounds like the kind of candy that requires thermometers, precise timing, and a family secret guarded for several generations. This five-minute version refuses to cooperate with that reputation. It delivers rich chocolate flavor, a smooth texture, and the satisfying density of traditional fudge without turning the kitchen into a confectionery laboratory. The mixture comes together quickly on the stove, leaving the chilling time to handle most of the actual work. Once set, it cuts into neat little squares that look perfectly at home in a holiday candy tin or piled on a dessert tray. The chocolate is deep enough to satisfy a serious craving, while the small portions keep the richness manageable—at least until someone reaches for another piece. It is the kind of recipe that makes you wonder why fudge ever felt intimidating in the first place.
