Here in the deep South, it’s very rare that you attend a gathering where there isn’t some sort of finger sandwich tray. We love our sandwiches down here, but what we love even more is tiny sandwiches that are filled with yummy things like bacon and cheese. What’s not to love? Every good Southern cook […]
I know I already posted a fruit dip recipe, but this one got such rave reviews that I had to post it also. After all, one can never have too many creamy ways to fatten up delicious, healthy fruit, right? So this recipe comes to you from my aunt, Margaret. Not Aunt Margaret, just Margaret. […]
I have been on a tomato soup kick lately, to say the least. I’ve been craving it like crazy! And before anyone asks, the answer to the question is no, I am most definitely NOT pregnant! And yes, I am fully aware that it is about 350 degrees in the shade these days but I […]
As some of you already know, my six year old son has a very serious illness that requires numerous surgeries (17 and counting), and weekly appointments to have his blood counts checked, among numerous other specialists we have to see regularly. We visit the local Children’s Cancer Clinic to have his blood counts checked, and […]
This recipe comes to you from my…well, I’m not really sure what to call her! She was once married to my cousin and although they have been divorced for quite some time, she still remains in contact with our family and we just can’t get rid of her. Just kidding, Tammy, we love you! Anyway, […]
I’ve already confessed on a previous post my love for anything containing green olives. And that means this recipe is a definite repeater in my house! I honestly don’t remember the first time that I made this recipe. I know that sounds weird for me, but it’s true. You see, a couple of years ago […]
Did you guys miss me the last couple of weeks? Sorry for not posting, but at least I have a good excuse. I was in Boston with my little HERO (my son) while he underwent numerous procedures and his 17th surgery. We had access to a kitchen, but needless to say cooking was not high […]
In this photo once again, you’ll see those yummy Louisiana strawberries. Can you tell I’m a bit obsessed? All winter long I went without eating my favorite fruit because they were so dang expensive, and now that the local farmer’s market has had them I just can’t get enough! When I was doing Weight Watchers […]
I know this isn’t so much a “recipe” as it is an idea, but it still qualifies to be posted here in my humble opinion. This is one of those all-time favorite Southern appetizers that can be found on almost any buffet table, wedding reception, birthday party, pretty much any gathering you can imagine. I […]
Catchy name, right? My smart little brain came up with that one all by myself because the title of this recipe says it all…one bite of this delicious, crunchy, ranchy (yes, that’s a word…at least in my world) snack mix and you’ll be forever unable to stop yourself from grabbing “just one more” handful. My […]
