Tortellini & Shrimp with Sausage

This recipe calls for sausage and I used Reindeer Kielbasa that we had shipped from Alaska. However, any sausage will work. Next time I will use Hot Italian Sausage. The Reindeer Kielbasa was very good with its own unique taste. On the package of the Reindeer Kielbasa the ingredients listed had pork first, beef second and the reindeer meat was fifth. It was […]

Stuffed Strawberries

These are so good and the last time I made them, they disappeared almost as fast as I could make them! My husband planted strawberries two years ago in our garden. We can’t wait to see how many plants made it through the winter and if they produce berries again this year. If they do, I guarantee this recipe will be […]

Sexing Green Peppers

How many times have you seen the post about the sex of Green Peppers on Facebook? It showed a picture similar to mine above. The post stated that three lobes mean it is a male Green Pepper and four lobes a female Green Pepper. It stated that the female Green Peppers are sweeter and better for eating raw while the male is better for cooking. Well I too fell for […]

Lemon Cookies

Do you like the flavor of lemon? I find it strange how I didn’t care for lemon when I was younger and now that I’m older I do. I wanted to create a recipe for a Lemon Cookie that you could really taste the lemon. So many times I have tried lemon baked food and you can barely taste the lemon. I didn’t expect this recipe […]

This is one of my favorite recipes that was given to me by a friend of mine, thanks Chris S! I have made this recipe many times. Talk about a hit with the kids…. spaghetti that tastes like pizza…OH YEAH! No reason why you couldn’t add sausage, onion or any of your favorite pizza toppings. Not only does this taste amazing, it’s very […]

Cleaning Cast Iron Pans

Last summer a young woman posted an ad on a Facebook local garage sale site for a large set of pots and pans. Some were in really good shape but were Teflon coated. The next picture showed nasty looking pans, she wanted $30.00 for all of them. I enlarged the picture and was pretty sure 11 of the nasty looking ones were cast […]

Thin Mint Chocolate Cookies

Paper airplanes and large balloons. Who knew that in a world of technology that the grandchildren would play for hours with only paper airplanes (that we made) and balloons (that my 6 year old blew up). The paper airplanes were a big hit as they went soaring across my living room crashing into anything in their path. Now the balloons….. […]

Meatless Vegetable Soup

Meatless Vegetable Soup is my favorite kind of Vegetable Soup. I usually eat the first big bowl as a meal and after that it is a cup here and there as a snack and to curve hunger pains. I guess I should call this my “Guilty Soup” because I always seem to make it whenever I want to drop a […]

Kitchen Tip

Today I want to share my awesome find! Last year for my birthday, my husband bought me a bright red Kitchen Aid 6 Quart Pro Mixer. This is not just a mixer. There are so many attachments for the mixer that it can make ice cream, pasta, grind meat, stuff sausage, food processor, ravioli maker and more. This unit is very […]
