I love the artsiness of this photo. It is how the fading sunlight streams through my kitchen window this time of year. The soft orange glow sets the mood heading into evening. It speaks to me. It beckons me to peek out the window as the sun begins its descent past the horizon. It reminds […]
Back in the day, BK, (before kids) I could be found wiling away my time during the summer months preserving fruits and veggies. Such a simple procedure for such a delicious and worthy outcome. What is more wonderful than popping the sealed lid from a jar of home canned preserves, tomatoes, okra or green beans […]
In an effort to please Miss T, who will depart for college soon enough, I’ve been making some of her favorite dishes. French toast is not one of them, but spaghetti and meatballs with garlic bread is. Friday evening I presented her with a steaming bowl of homemade meatballs and spaghetti complete with a side […]
Down South, even our vegetables have some pig hidden somewhere in it. A vegetable isn’t a vegetable without a little ham hock. Paula Deen Ah Ha…I finally found a recipe using vegetables that appealed to me. I think the reason I only want to eat fresh fruit has to do with the heat factor. Soon […]

Spring Break! It’s half over. UGH! That went waaaaay too fast. I’ll be taking a short break from blogging for the next few days. If you too are on spring break I hope you are making the most of it and having a ball at whatever you are doing. Miss T and I will be […]
“Orange” month is quickly coming to an end. Charles, over at www.fiveeurofood.com/ Five Euro Food, who I might say posts some enticing photos and recipes, wrote a post about Swedish Waffles. I commented on how pretty and tasty they looked. He, later asked me about waffle recipes in America.
Have you ever made or baked something that you liked and then later could not put your hands on the recipe to save your life? Today, that happened to me. Where did I put that recipe? Now I’m so annoyed with myself I just googled for recipes and found this one by The Homesick […]
Moving right along with “orange” month. I’m not in any hurry for this month to end as my oldest daughter will hit the quarter century mark near the end of January. I simply do not understand how time breezes by so quickly.
