Polly DuPont’s Meatballs

Posted on: Dec 26, 2014        In: In the Kitchen, Recipes        With: No comments
Are any of you like me?  Since Christmas has come and gone, I am left thinking about all the things I didn’t do.  Do not get me wrong.  I did plenty, but I always want to do more. (I realize that this is a fault, but I can’t help myself.)  I wanted to see the […]

Bread Pudding with Bourbon Sauce

Posted on: Jul 17, 2014        In: In the Kitchen, Recipes        With: No comments
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 […]

Laura Bush’s Cowboy Cookies

Posted on: Apr 21, 2014        In: In the Kitchen, Recipes        With: No comments
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 […]

Orange Muffins

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 […]

Tea Time Tassies (Mini Pecan Pies) – A+ in Cooking Project

Posted on: Mar 7, 2014        In: Gatherings        With: No comments
Food memories can just make my day.  I remember the first time I tasted Mini Pecan Pies.  To say that they made a lasting impression is an understatement.  It was a  gathering at Marie Stobaugh’s home.  I thought the little tarts she made that were filled with pecan pie filling were about the best thing […]

Baked Oatmeal

Posted on: Nov 18, 2013        In: In the Kitchen, Recipes        With: No comments
StoneGable is a blog I enjoy.  Yvonne is one talented person – she cooks, she creates, she decorates, and she and her husband even do most of their home projects themselves.  On top of all of that, her photographs are fantastic. A couple of times she mentioned Baked Oatmeal on her blog.  She even planned […]

Andrew’s Red Beans and Rice

Posted on: Aug 22, 2013        In: In the Kitchen, Recipes        With: No comments
Marsha Christmas my number one cheerleader sent me this recipe, and I could not wait to try it.  Red Beans and Rice are at the top of my comfort food list. Maybe some of you remember Andrew’s restaurant.  Here is what Marsha wrote: Andrew’s was owned by 2 brothers (twins?) in the 70’s, I think, […]

Zucchini Bread – A+ in Cooking Project

Posted on: Aug 16, 2013        In: In the Kitchen, Recipes        With: No comments
It is zucchini season, and what to do with all the zucchini is a never-ending question.  Now mind you. – I did not grow zucchini, but the zucchini at the Farmers Market was plentiful and begging to be bought.  I bought it and brought it home with the intention of making zucchini bread.  Because… When […]

Slow-Cooker Barbecue Beef

We got a call from Number One Son.  “Would you like to come for dinner?” Sure.  What a treat.  Sweet precious Mikel (Number One Son’s wife) had prepared Slow-Cooker Barbecue Beef. (Or you could call it Crock-Pot Barbecue Beef – Whatever floats your boat.)  The minute we walked in the door, we were greeted with […]

Cinco de Mayo has come and gone, but the Living Stones are prepared to celebrate a day late on our monthly excursion to the Well.  The Living Stones travel to Oak Cliff once a month to share a meal with our friends at the Well.  We have eagerly been preparing.  Excellent cook Nancy cooked twelve […]
