Beware - There's a New Scam in Town

John Miller, Passport's President has written a blog about what the cyber criminals are up to these days...

I received an email this morning about an increase in criminals trying to scam people into sending their bill payments for a vendor to a “new bank account or address.” They apparently are able to make their email look very similar to the real company’s emails as they try to deceive you into sending payments to a bogus account or address. This approach only works until you get a delinquency notice from the real vendor who is most likely unaware of the scammers attempts to divert money to their own accounts. Read more

Some of My Favorite Things!

Shrimp Scampi



This is one of my go-to dishes! The sauce is made after the pasta is done! Fast, easy and delicious! Doesn't get much better than that. Serve with some garlic bread, and maybe a Caesar salad, or any green salad will do - fabulous!

Classic Caesar Salad



I'll admit that I am a Caesar salad snob, and for those of you who are unfamiliar with the original recipe, you will barely recognize it from what Caesar salad has morphed into! I sincerely hope you give this a try.
