One of the easiest and most delicious holiday appetizers you can make is a cheese ball.  The great thing about this delicious treat is that it is super quick to make, and you can make it several days in advance..  In about 15 minutes, you can have a cheese ball made and chilling in the refrigerator. What I […]

Corn Dip – I remember it well.  It was an holiday open house at an antique mall on Lovers’ Lane.  One of the dealers was serving corn dip.  Sweet Mother of Pearl.  I think we all embarrassed ourselves standing around grazing on the Fritos and Corn Dip.  I will never forget it.  She told us […]

I have so been wanting to eat Chinese Cole Slaw.  It is one of my all time favorite salads, but…  It makes a big salad, so I have to wait for a time when I will be feeding a crowd.  Our lunch at Sarah’s filled the bill.  Yea! This is another recipe from my mother’s […]

Up front you have to know – this recipe does not contain jalapenos.  It is made with green chilies.  Why the title?  Who knows?  I’m here to tell you – Do not worry about the title.  The Queen’s Jalapeno Rice was a big hit at the Jubilee Supper, because it was wonderfully delicious! Friend Marsha […]

The kids came over today for Memorial Day.  Ever-Lovin’ grilled hamburgers (Yum!), and I made my mother’s potato salad.  It is still my favorite.  The addition of mustard and celery seeds is the secret for this very tasty salad, and trust me – it is oh, so good! Boil your potatoes.  I like using the […]
