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 […]
There have been several recipes on other blogs detailing what to do with Thanksgiving leftovers. Most have to do with turkey. This is different, but worthy of sharing. Number Three Son wanted plain baked potatoes (“Not those twice baked ones you did before.” Got it!) I made plenty, and we had potatoes leftover. As a […]
Suzanne and Leslie invited the group to their home after our Friday night dinner. It is unbelievable all they did for our 50th Class Reunion. Not only were they in charge of planing the entire reunion, but they also had a gathering in their home, and provided Tortilla Roll-Ups for a gathering on Saturday afternoon. […]
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. In that post, The Mrs. (my dear friend) shared her North Dallas home with us. It is beautiful, and if you want to see this home tour, click on this link. The Mrs. […]
Tuesday morning I was with some friends, and of course, the topic of what we were going to have for our Thanksgiving meal was discussed. Shelly mentioned that she was looking forward to a fruit salad her relative always brought to their family gathering. She related that the salad had pineapple, little oranges, coconut, […]

I love a […]
Long, long ago on a street not too far away, a dear friend made Good Banana Pudding (That is the official name of this recipe in her family cookbook). She served said Good Banana Pudding to Ever-Lovin’, and the rest is history. Ever-Lovin’ loves, loves, loves banana pudding, and this recipe sat a new standard. […]
The Texas Chocolate Sheet Cake recipe is a staple in many kitchens in Texas and probably beyond. In my mother’s cookbook A+ in Cooking no fewer than 17 people submitted the recipe for the Texas Chocolate Sheet Cake. Talk about a favorite. A couple of years ago, good friend Nancy – who is an excellent […]
Good friend Janet hosted The Living Stones Bible Fellowship Class for their almost monthly class meeting recently. It is always a pleasure to be invited into her beautiful home (Janet and Robert do amazing texturing and painting themselves), and she is a wonderful hostess. Sweet, petite, always put together Janet pays attention to every detail. […]
My father retired before my mother retired. As a stay at home husband, he took over much of the housework and cooking duties. He was a good cook! For sometime now I have been thinking about and wanting to make one of his signature dishes – Chicken Suzanne. So today was the day! First, we […]
