This week's recipe came about because of a video from Beryl Shereshewsky on YouTube regarding how the world eats mangoes. I love watching her videos because she is so young, yet so worldly. She understands several languages, including Russian. I wish I was that worldly myself. One of the dishes presented in this video was [...]
I grew up on a hobby farm. If you are not familiar with a hobby farm, it's basically a farm that is not your job and livelihood. We had horses and beef steer as well as a huge vegetable garden. We even had a small orchard with all types of fruit trees. While the chores [...]
I was watching another cooking show at night in our living room and Tony pops in and says, "I miss meatloaf". Then he pauses and follows it with, "But, it won't fit in our diet. I'd be all for a meatloaf that was low sugar, salt and carbs." Challenge accepted. Meatloaf is so versatile, it [...]
I am sending a copy of this post to my brother. The reason for this is he is a die hard pumpkin pie lover. He would rather have a pumpkin pie on his birthday than cake. His birthday is in August, when baking a pumpkin pie would be a little hard to do. It's still [...]
To say I love Beef Stroganoff is an understatement. When I was a kid, I almost always chose this dish as my dinner on my birthday. I wouldn't turn it down today, either. Why do I love this dish so much? It is creamy, beefy, and filling. I've made many different versions of this dish, [...]
I love pie, but outside of Thanksgiving, you won't see me making one from scratch. It's too much work. The pie crust is finicky and the slices can not come out evenly for calorie counts. Pies like lemon meringue are even more work. Making a crust and a meringue is a lot. I think I [...]
I am not from the Southern US. You can probably tell by the recipes I post. Even those in the north do enjoy southern fare. Buttermilk fried chicken, hot chicken, gumbo, jambalaya, and many others. However, there is a beloved dish that I was not aware of until recently, and that's bog. The dish consists [...]
When I had birthdays as a kid, there were only two options for my treat: raspberry pie and ice cream or ice cream cake. I had ice cream cake a lot when I was older. It was the perfect blend of cake and ice cream. Baskin Robins got a lot of money from us through [...]
Life has continued to be busy around here. Paint is going up on the walls of the new house as well as the showers almost being finished. I'm also tackling an oil change with a very difficult to remove oil plug. I am a girl who works on her own cars. Granted, don't ask me [...]
This recipe is something I wanted to make for a long time. This one has a back story. I started downhill skiing at 21 months and have been doing it most of my life. When I was a kid, my dad and I would take trips up north to ski together. We ended up eating [...]
