Menu planning for the road
It seems like we are on the go all the time these days, particularly at or near dinner time. Yes, I know crock pot meals are a great option for those days when you aren’t home to make dinner, but what about when you’re not home to eat dinner? Dining out isn’t in our budget […]

A delicious Texas tradition
No reunion, potluck, or picnic in Texas is complete without a Texas Sheet Cake. This is a cake specifically for large gatherings: large, rich, and decadent. Tonight our bible study is having a going away thing for the various college students departing to the four corners, and this is my contribution. I actually knew this […]

Succulent Saturday
This is kind of a cheater Succulent Saturday post, because the recipe/directions can be found at Bakerella’s place. She’s the creative soul who did all the hard work, so you should go there if you want to see how it’s done. For our 4th of July get together with friends, we made this fun “burger […]

GFCF Day 1: Did we survive?
The first day is done and everybody ate and like it, mostly. The gf bread didn’t rise, and looked, smelled and tasted weird, but the kids liked it. I also made crackers with the same dough and that was better. The cornbread recipe I had called for a gf all purpose flour, which I did […]
