I enjoy reading the blog Mennonite Girls Can Cook. The Canadian ladies that write this blog are excellent cooks who use fresh basic ingredients in their recipes. This morning there was a recipe for Lemon Coconut Bars, and I knew I wanted to try them. I love coconut, and to think about it paired with lemon […]
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 […]
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 […]
A big shout-out to Marshachristmas for this recipe – Apple Bread Pudding. She had this delicious dessert at a gathering, and thought I needed the recipe. (How sweet is that!) Thank you so very much for thinking of me. The original recipe was from Bill Scepansky in Southern Living – October 2013. I have adapted it slightly. […]

Because… When […]
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 […]
Do you ever have a hankerin’ to make a certain something? How do I describe this? It is not that I am hungry for this certain thing. (Ever-Lovin’ and I can not and should not eat an entire pan of lemon bars.) I want to make it or bake it, and share it with somebody. […]
First order of business. Augh-h-h-h! The computer gremlins are here again. My post from yesterday, did not go to the email subscribers.

I love a […]
