Are any of you like me? Since Christmas has come and gone, I am left thinking about all the things I didn’t do. Do not get me wrong. I did plenty, but I always want to do more. (I realize that this is a fault, but I can’t help myself.) I wanted to see the […]
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 […]
For more Christmas seasons than I can numerate, The Living Stones have had an annual Christmas Party. What memories these parties have generated. This year Tonna used her clout at the Richardson Women’s Club, and we gathered at the clubhouse for a special night of gorgeous decorations, delicious food, the legendary ornament exchange, and enough Santa […]
Friend Kim is hosting an 80th birthday party for her mother. Kim’s mother is amazing. She still plays tennis each week – in two tennis leagues no less. (And she looks good in the cute tennis outfits also.) Kim called, and we discussed her party. I had a couple of trays to loan her, and she […]

Hey gang. This is an ORIGINAL. Sheila – AKA Sheshe – created this recipe for Potato Salad Bites, and it is a winner. Sheshe made these little stuffed red potatoes for Stephanie’s wedding shower, and they were a hit. Yes, I had seen Baked Potato Bites recipes, but these little potatoes are stuffed with potato […]
Sesame Asparagus Roll-ups are so good. I like them. I love them. They are so good that I was determined to make them for Stephanie’s shower. It took three trips to as many grocery stores to be able to find asparagus to my liking. At one store, the asparagus was too large (I almost wrote […]
Sheila and I have been cooking together for as long as we have known each other. Back in the day, we were part of a group of “church ladies” that cooked lunch for about 125 women once a month for Baptist Women. We had so much fun together – and still do! Sheila has always […]
