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 […]
StoneGable is a blog I enjoy. Yvonne is one talented person – she cooks, she creates, she decorates, and she and her husband even do most of their home projects themselves.

“Momma said there’ll be days like this. There’ll be days like this my momma said.” (Shirelles) Failure. Total failure. I honestly try to keep Lanabird upbeat, positive, and enjoyable, but…. Today it is not going to happen. While pouring over the recent Phyllis Hoffman’s Celebrate Magazine, the recipe for Salted Caramel Pecan Pie seemed […]
Sweet petite Katie from Bonham made these delicious melt-in-your-mouth cookies for Jessica’s baby shower. Miss Charlotte asked for the recipe, and Katie was happy to share.
