I started to title this post – The Best Bread Pudding – but that seemed a little presumptuous. But I am here to tell you, – This is the best bread pudding I have ever made, and Lord knows I have tried to make a bread pudding to our liking. Ever-Lovin’ loves bread pudding and […]
Sweet Mother of Pearl! For a summertime treat you cannot beat gazpacho. The tomato based cold soup is filled with raw vegetables, and it is flavorful and so refreshing. Gazpacho was served at Sheila’s Beach Birthday Party. I was given this recipe by my friend who does not want to be named. She got it from […]
Blue Watermelon Walnut Salad Caution – this salad can become an addiction! (That is the disclaimer that came with this salad from watermelon.org.) I believe them. Now, I do not have wonderful pictures of this salad because when cooking for Sheila’s party, it was hard to have time to take pictures. The Blue Watermelon Walnut […]
Dear friend Pat sent me this recipe. It is originally from the Food Network’s Cooking Live show. Sweet Mother of Pearl! Cucumber Salsa is now my new favorite recipe for cucumbers and tomatoes. I honestly would call this a salad rather than a salsa, but let’s go with what the original recipe called it. When the […]
The menu for our Father’s Day Lunch centered around the foods Ever-Lovin’ loves. We had been to the Saturday’s farmers market and had plenty of veggies to cook. Basically it was a Southern comfort food type of meal. For those who are interested, here was our menu: Meatloaf Carrot Salad (recipe to follow) Cucumber Salsa […]
On our day trip to Waxahachie, Super Sister and I ate at The Dove’s Nest – an excellent restaurant located downtown Waxahachie on the square. We succumbed and ordered the Chocolate Bourbon Pecan Pie for dessert. Sweet Mother of Pearl. It was full of chocolate, pecans and had a subtle hint of bourbon. Yummy! Marsha […]
This is the recipe that I have used forever – even before my mother’s cookbook – A+ in Cooking. First, my sweet cousin LaNell gave me a version of this recipe while I was dating Ever-Lovin’. Then I have at the same version of the recipe from Mother via Ann Sears via Mrs. Joe Morgan. (Do you […]
Excellent Cook Nancy brought Friend BB some cookies – Laura Bush’s Cowboy Cookies to be exact. Mrs. Ralph ate one of said cookies, and declared it the best cookie she had ever eaten. Mrs. Ralph did not mention said cookie just one time, I bet she mentioned it a bazillion times (Okay, I exaggerate.) but…. I […]
I was reminded again a few days ago that the Crock Pot Hot Chocolate recipe wasn’t on Lanabird. Friends from ADK swore I had not posted it, and they wanted it. Well, really I did post it, but it is hidden in the English Christmas Tea post. I thought I would do it justice, and […]
Thought it was time I shared the Orange Muffin recipe that I made for the ADK meeting. (I promised I would.) This recipe is a recipe from Helen Corbitt. It is easy to make and delicious. I like these muffins because they keep well, and you can even freeze them. I was reminded of this […]
