Wow! How did January 31 get here so fast? I’ve had so much fun with “orange” month. I hate to see it go, but am looking forward to moving on to another foodie adventure. I hope you’ll stick with me and come along. For my last “orange” post I am going to share a recipe
From time to time I’ve mentioned Ryan over at http://www.ryanbakes.com/. She did the nicest thing and invited me to write a “guest post” for her blog while she and her adoring hubby took a little trip to celebrate their anniversary. I agreed immediately and am happy to see my post up on her site today. […]
I find myself once again honored by a fellow blogger with the Liebster Award. Thank you to Ashkitty at http://globetrottingforfood.wordpress.com/ for the gift. Liebster is German and means ‘dearest’ or ‘beloved’ but it can also mean ‘favourite’ and the idea of the Liebster award is to bring attention to blogs with less than 200 followers. The Rules […]
Rain is a product of nature we have become quite unfamiliar with, unfortunately. Most of Texas has been declared to be experiencing severe drought conditions. This is sad news and I admit I’ve forgotten how to use an umbrella. Last evening we, my man Dan, our daughter LuLu and her guy ventured out, even though […]
I hate to do this, but I’m going to have to give credit where credit is due. I owe it all to Oprah. In one of her more recent “O” magazines she dedicates a few pages to pies. They all look delicious but the ones that caught my eye were these cute little hand pies. […]
We all have them from time to time; those worrisome events in our lives that turn life upside down or inside out. This week was upside down for me. I am a soft hearted animal lover and this week I’ve had a very sick kitty. Now I know human sickness is hard to deal with […]
The heat has returned to North Texas. It seems as though we might break that record after all for # of days with temps reaching 100 or higher. After all those wicked hot days we’ve had I said, “why not tack on a couple of more just to break the all time record!” Fall is […]
Hatch recipes are history for a while – I’ve moved on to peaches. Throughout the summer I’ve found it interesting to see my fellow bloggers in different parts of the country blogging about peaches. Greg and Katherine over at Rufus’ Food and Spirits Guide: http://rufusguide.wordpress.com/ have blogged about peaches since late June. You can find recipes for […]
I may never bake another regular sized chocolate chip cookie again. I admit I am a sweets fanatic and these giant size cookies are just my style. I can eat only one and be completely satisfied. These cookies are big enough to share and that is a very nice thing to do! I am […]
To quote Lucy Van Pelt in Peanuts by Charles M. Schulz, “All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn’t hurt.” Today I made a Chocolate Pecan Loaf Cake, I’ve got love, but I needed a little chocolate. I am considering submitting a few recipes for a holiday recipe contest sponsored […]
