Briannas Poppy Seed Dressing

Posted on: Feb 15, 2015        In: In the Kitchen        With: No comments
Have you tried Briannas (it does not have an apostrophe on the bottle) Poppy Seed Dressing?  I did not know about this delicious dressing, and just in case you haven’t heard about it either, well…. I think you need to know. The upside to being in the hospital is that the church ladies bring food […]

Cucumbers and Onions

Posted on: Sep 9, 2014        In: In the Kitchen, Recipes        With: No comments
There is a difference of opinion at our house.  I know this might come as a shock to some of you, but others will completely understand.  When it comes to cucumbers and onions, Ever-Lovin’ likes the combination to be sweet.  I, on the other hand, like a more vinegary taste.  Sweet Mother of Pearl.  I […]

Blue Watermelon Walnut Salad

Blue Watermelon Walnut Salad Caution – this salad can become an addiction! (That is the disclaimer that came with this salad from watermelon.org.)  I believe them. Now, I do not have wonderful pictures of this salad because when cooking for Sheila’s party, it was hard to have time to take pictures. The Blue Watermelon Walnut […]

Posted on: Jun 17, 2014        In: In the Kitchen, Recipes        With: No comments
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 […]

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 […]

Five Cup Salad

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, […]

Artichoke Rice Salad

WOW Reunion 2012- There it sat at the end of the counter.  It had good presentation – tomatoes surrounded the edge of the bowl, and I thought it might be a rice salad.  I took a good sized spoonful, and continued filling my plate with other delicious salads. Eventually I took a bite of the […]

Avocado and Mango Salsa

This blog is brought to you on the recommendation of Ever-Lovin’. While traveling to the ends of the earth doing errands yesterday (Remember the leopard print lunch bag with hot pink trim.), out of the blue says he, “If you haven’t planned your blog for today, you could blog about the Avocado and Mango Salsa […]

Marinated Carrots

It was so good to see Paula at the WOW Reunion.  She is a dear friend and wonderful cook. (She has even worked at Williams-Sonoma.  I am too jealous for words!  It is little consolation that she spent more than she made.  Wouldn’t I like to try that.)   I love it when she emails […]

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. […]
