Whether you like Scalloped Potatoes as a side dish or Scalloped Potatoes & Ham as a main meal, like we do, this recipe is comfort food at it’s best. Usually I make this early in the day and cook it in the slow cooker. Today I didn’t plan ahead so I cooked it in the oven instead. Either way I […]
These Bread & Butter Pickles are so good that I can eat them right out of the jar. The worse part about these pickles is that you need to wait at least a week before eating them! My husband loves making these and sharing them with his mom because she gave him the recipe that she use to make years […]
Who doesn’t love walking out to the garden and bringing in fresh lettuce, herbs, spinach and strawberries? It is a labor of love that my husband and I love to do. My husband and granddaughter picked our first crop of lettuce and herbs today. In the picture above the lettuce on the left is called Black Seeded Simpson Lettuce and the lettuce […]
Todays blog is not going to be a recipe, although it is something I had to eat just yesterday. When you or your Mom made a roast and there was a bone in the meat with a soft center, did you know you can eat that fatty looking stuff in the bone? Don’t say yuck until you have at least […]
I love Rhubarb anything! I have been eating Rhubarb since I was a kid. I made this recipe to put on my English muffins. It is like eating a tart applesauce and I even eat it right out of the bowl.

Whip up some noodles, as I did, or mashed potatoes for a great home cooked meal sure to please everyone. Twelve ingredients and a slow […]
Today’s supper was a complete surprise for me. While I was under the weather and sleeping most of the day, I woke up to my wonderful husband outside grilling. I have the recipe for the packet potatoes he made in the recipe file under the potato category. The sweet corn he cooked on the stove in a large pot of […]
It probably costs as much to make homemade Pizza as it does to buy Pizza. But think of all the fun you’ll have making your own and there is nothing like the taste of homemade pizza. The kids like this because everybody can make their own pizza exactly how they want it. How many times as a kid do you […]
Oh how I love stuffed mushrooms! I should call these Mushroom Surprise because in the center of each Mushroom Cap is a piece of sausage link. I did not have ground sausage so I cooked up some sausage links, cut each link into four pieces and placed a piece in the center of each Mushroom Cap. For this recipe I used all […]
I have made a lot of food in my lifetime. But one area I lack in is vegetables. My husband will eat a salad every day but me, I could care less if I even have a vegetable. It’s not that I don’t like them, because I do, but for some reason I’m just not crazy about having them with my […]
