I love, love, love corned beef and cabbage. It makes my Irish eyes smile, okay, I’m not exactly Irish. I am for one day of the year, nothing wrong in a little role playing. I even wear Kiss me I’m Irish shirts, I figured I can easily pull it off with red hair and hazel […]
Looking for something different in your potato? Have I got a surprise for you! Is it boobs? Is it a butt? Or is it really a potato? Definitely a butt…see the hole? Seriously, how funny is that potato? I think I should have posted in on ebay or something. I would have got a […]
I’m staying in a hotel this week so I’m not cooking, but I have a few recipes that I put in my computer memory banks for times just like these. To tell the truth, I debating on whether to share this recipe. It is a family recipe and there is something to be said for […]
I actually made this on Sunday, I didn’t want to leave and not have a big pot of something to hold McGyver and Baby Boy over for a couple days. You know, something a little more nutritious then take-out and pizza. And actually this isn’t really boeuff it’s venison because we’re a Montanan family. Venison […]
Don’t tell McGyver that I got this recipe from an ex-boyfriends grandmother. We were visiting his family in Iowa and I had this dressing. Grandma Phyllis served with cucumbers and onions, this time. She said she used it for coleslaw, potato salad or anything else she felt like. Well, I got to tell you, grandmas are pretty good […]
I’m not really a big fan of tartar sauce, at least not the jarred kind. It just never seemed quite right. But I got a craving for some, can’t explain it exactly. Maybe it had to do with deep frying up some catfish that made me think I needed to slather on some more fat? […]
Before this fabulous salsa, Baby Boy swore he didn’t like salsa. He just doesn’t like anything spicy (sometimes you have to wonder, are you really my brood?). Being a good sport and all, BB decided to sample it. Umm, can we say it was gone before I knew it? I really enjoy pico de gallo, […]
Chantel has ruined my reputation! You have to understand, I am not a baker, I do not bake! A rare occasion maybe; but there is just so much….measuring, and you have to be so…..exact, and you have to…..follow directions. If you know me, you would think that a would be such a natural at baking […]
Thanks Angie for requesting this one, it gave me an excuse to have one on a Sunday Night. Not that I need an excuse, but it helps me rationalize. This is my all time favorite cocktail, it’s simple but sounds exotic. McGyver turned me onto this when we started dating. Of course he had no […]
Dear sweet and thoughtful Chantel loaned me one of her favorite cookbooks. Chantel hails from Belgium;she grew up with heavy French, Dutch and German influences (lucky girl). Chantel is also an outstanding cook, and I am honored that she is sharing one of her favorite cookbooks. I read the book cover to cover, and couldn’t wait […]
