Mrs. Ralph recently reminded me about the pumpkin bread recipe from my mother’s cookbook A+ in Cooking. She had made it, and was pleased how well it turned out. Well, just the mention of this recipe spurred me into action. Since I enjoy sharing recipes from Mother’s cookbook, and pumpkin bread is a perfect fall treat, I […]
Baked Pancake was a recipe I recently saw on the Mennonite Girls Can Cook blog. I could not wait to try it. Today was the day, and I am here to tell you that the baked pancake was so delicious that I can not wait to share the recipe with you. The Mennonite Girls Can Cook recipe was for an […]
The official name for this casserole is Jessica’s Favorite Green Chili Hominy, but since I remember it as the hominy casserole from Perini Ranch in Buffalo Gap, Texas, I call it Perini Ranch Green Chili Hominy. This hominy casserole is seriously good and so easy to make. It can be made in advance or even […]
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 […]
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 […]

You might need this for your Thanksgiving and Christmas meals, so I had better post it now – ASAP. Recently I came across the term “vintage recipe”. Love that term – “vintage recipe”. I think most of my recipes are “vintage”, and worthy of being collected – maybe that is stretching it a bit, but […]
Ever-Lovin’ loves almost anything pumpkin- pies, cakes, muffins, bread. You name it pumpkin ______ (whatever), and he gravitates toward it. It is not a seasonal thing for him. Any month of the year (even in the dog days of summer), he will choose the pumpkin pie at the cafeteria. (He thinks pumpkin pie is a […]
While at Buckner last week friend Robert mentioned he had some okra to share. (This is the Robert that is married to sweet, petite, always put together Janet) “Would I like some?” Faster than a speeding bullet, my answer was – “YES!” Ever-Lovin and I love, love, love okra and tomatoes. Robert is a gardner […]
One of the best cooks I know is my dear friend Sheila. We have been cooking together for a bazillion years. Back when, we prepared many a luncheon for the church ladies (WMU – Women’s Missionary Union as it was called). Sheila is from Virginia, and she does everything properly. Her attention to detail is […]
