I’ve posted about these brownies before. However, I posted about them at Christmas time when we are all inundated with sweets and goodies, and it’s so easy for a brownie to be overlooked. I found this brownie recipe in this past year’s Better Homes And Gardens special Christmas Cookie publication, […]

A Little Lovin from the Philippines
You know how there are some things that transport you to a moment? A bite of cake for some takes them back to their wedding day. The scent of a campfire can take someone back to days of camping, or of growing up with a wood-burning stove. Yesterday was one […]
Bonus Points
Yesterday I earned bonus points towards my Cookbook Challenge. I have a list of all my cookbooks- 66 of them to be exact, but there is a small group of cookbooks not on the list. See, the point of my cookbook challenge is to actually cull out my collection. There […]
Baking with Zander
Yesterday Zander told me he wanted to cook with me. That’s about the last thing I want to turn down, so I spied some browning bananas on the counter and told him we were going to make banana bread. He ran to get his chair to stand on, asking over […]
Kids and Eating Out
I don’t have a food post today. Last night being ballet night, I resorted to a simple supper of hot dogs (locally made) and fresh pineapple. And I did attempt to make something new yesterday to use another cookbook from my cookbook challenge, but it truly was terrible and went […]
Smoked Salmon
Part of this past Sunday’s Company Dinner was some wild caught salmon. This was given to Andy with the instructions to try smoking it…in 20 degree weather. Even though the weather wasn’t ideal for breaking out the Weber, he forged ahead with his plan. The tough part was coming up […]

I need YOUR help
I am being scraped. Some loser is using my blog content to fill their blog, which on the surface, appears to be non-revenue generating. Until you check out one of the hundreds of links on their sidebar. They all lead to pointless pages of nothing but radnom bits of info […]
A Potato Side Dish
Well, Andy’s out of town this week. He’s still off of work, so he offered his services to my brother and his wife to help them redo their kitchen. They were thrilled to take him up on that, so he’s in the Twin Cities right now setting tile and having […]
Wild Boar
Yesterday, much to our surprise, we had found out that the “pork chops” we had thawed for dinner were not pork chops. They belonged to a friend of ours who gave them to us for Sunday Dinner, who had gotten them from our neighbors. So I put them in the […]
Menu Planning on a Budget
The last few days I have stepped aside from my menu plan to rustle up some unexpected pantry meals. On a normal day, I have a list of about 10 meals I can make where I have everything on hand, and I pick and choose according to what I’m in […]
