If you live in a climate where summers can be hot & humid, than you probably have days like me when you can’t even think of cooking dinner, in a hot kitchen. You’re looking for a meal that is cool, light, and delicious. We probably all have our regular stand-bys, but I just discovered a new favorite, and I’m here to share it with you!
One of the best parts … Read More
I can’t believe I haven’t shared this recipe with you yet, because it is definitely a family favorite!
Chicken Italiano.
It may or may not be an even better winter meal, because it is made in a slow cooker. But really, we are happy to make it & eat it year round! Everything we eat in the warmer months, can’t be cold food. Right? There are days year-round, … Read More
Not much says a down-home-cooked meal, like a homemade Chicken Pot Pie! Growing up, my mom always bought those little individual frozen pot pies, in either chicken or beef. And guess what? I loved them! She was not all that into cooking, as I’ve said, so I don’t think I had very discerning taste as a kid.
When I grew up and started my own family, those little frozen … Read More
Once upon a time, my ‘Fine Bread Maker’, made all of his bread and pizza dough by hand.
But now we have THE MACHINE….
(…thanks to the huge heart, of a great friend….you may have heard that story I love to tell…).
The recipes are the same as they always were. They are just a whole lot easier, and a lot less messy now! The difference between the bread … Read More
Beef Stroganoff is a meal we had only made once before, in our married years here, years ago. As I recall, too, it didn’t come out quite as we had hoped. I believe the issue was that the meat came out a little too tough. So I guess we decided we weren’t good at making that meal, and we didn’t make it again.
That is, until a few weeks. I … Read More
Here’s something you may or may not know about me.
I am not one of those mother’s that takes some time for herself now and then. Ever. I don’t go away, for anything. I don’t take a day, for myself. I don’t even just go shopping, without taking some or all of the kids with me. I don’t want to do those things. I don’t like, to be … Read More
When I was a kid, my absolute favorite meal, was Tuna Pea Wiggle. Honestly, I thought maybe my mother or grandmother made up the name for this recipe. But no, it turns out ‘wiggle’ is a real term, for ‘cream sauce’. I think that just having the word ‘wiggle’ in the name of this dish, is enough to intrigue any silly kid. Having crackers for dinner, may be another plus. … Read More
The other night, my husband said he was making his chili and cornbread for dinner. The whole house bursted out in cheer, except for me. I am TIRED of that. I said so. He said, “Have you got any better ideas?” And I said, “Not yet, but I’ll get one!” I found a fine variation that would give me something new, yet keep the family happy with something similar. It … Read More
It’s Sunday night. Sundays are our family’s favorite day of the week. And today, like all Sundays, was filled with all of the reasons why. On Sundays, we have a somewhat leisure morning, and then we attend the last mass of the morning. Following mass, we chat with some people, and then we spend the day living out whatever plans we had for that Sunday. Today that plan was: 1) … Read More
