Monday Q & A: March 31, 2008

Good morning from Chattanooga!  I’m working here this week.  So today’s Q & A has to be short and sweet.
Marlene asked if bread flour is just all-purpose flour.  Well, yes and no.  It IS an all-purpose flour meaning you could use in something other than bread.  But it’s super-fine sifted just for making bread.  Does [...]

Let’s Bake!

I love to bake!  Cakes, cookies, brownies, breads.  You name it!  And I love to bake it! 
A few years ago, I was involved in an online forum specifically for moms.  It was actually the first place I “discovered” when we got internet service years ago.  Man, did it change my whole world!  That particular forum is [...]

Chicken Chile Verde

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD Wednesday morning to you, friends and neighbors!  And a glorious morning, it is!  The sun is shining here in TN, bright and beautiful!  I love days like this!  It makes me feel like all is well with the world!
So let’s talk food, how ’bout?  A couple weeks ago, I did something I’ve never done [...]

What’s Cookin’ At My House This Week

HOOOOOOOO BOY!  Do I have some sexy food planned at my house this week!  Uh huh!  YEP!  SEXXXXXXXXXXXX-Y food! 
I actually had requests from the various and sundry ankle biters around here this week.  Once in a great while, they actually will ask for specific food.  Most of the time, I can’t get them to come [...]

Monday Q & A: March 24, 2008

Happy Monday morning to you all!  It’s Spring Break here in my neck of the woods!  I’m taking off a couple days this week so the ankle biters and I can do some junk together.  Dunno what kind of junk yet though.  I guess whatever they come up with!  LOL 
I hope you and yours had [...]

HALLELUJAH! He Is RISEN!

Happy Easter to you all!  This week, I’ve shared some of my favorite side dish recipes that my family enjoys having with our Easter meal.  But today, I want to share something with you that means more to me than food.  WHAT?  There’s something that means more to her than FOOD?!  What is WRONG with [...]

My Easter Dinner Plans

OK, quit crying!  Now, now!  It’s alright!  I know you’ve all been sitting out there just wringing your hands waiting to find out what I’ll put on my table for Easter.  Come on!  You can admit it! 
Seriously, I am going to share my Easter menu with you finally!  Since it only took me forever and [...]

Happy Easter! Now Let’s EAT!

It’s getting closer now!  Just a couple days away!  Do you have your menu planned?  Ummmmmm, cuz I don’t yet.  By this time, I usually have it long-since planned, the grocery list made and typed up and a few things already on go in the kitchen.  But I am woefully behind this year!  I have [...]

What’s For Easter Dinner?

You know what?  I think it’s a crime against nature to have a holiday gathering where “traditional” holiday foods are served without Mashed Potatoes on the table.  They just have to be on the table next to the Dressing and English Peas!  But in the event that you don’t mind committing a crime against nature or you’ve [...]

Easter Dinner Planning……

Easter is coming up!  Just a few more days now to plan!
So we always have a big meal at our house for Easter dinner (again, that’s lunch, not the evening meal because that’s what my Granny called it!)  Sometimes we do “traditional” and by traditional I mean turkey, dressing, ham, etc.  And then sometimes we do [...]
