It’s been a busy week and I haven’t had time to edit photos or post recipes.  (See above and think of the hours I spent filling and frosting 72 mini cupcakes!)  I have a ton of stuff waiting, but it’s not going to get up this week either.  Sorry!  I know that makes me a [...]

So many delicious looking holiday treats and foods on the various blogs this week! Deb posted the most delicious looking garlic butter roasted mushrooms. I gotta admit that these are my favorite part of going to a good steakhouse … just as she described! These mini Loaves of Cranberry Bread from Food in Jars look [...]

Ok, let’s get on with the links for this Monday morning!  There weren’t that many things that struck my eye this week.  [...]

Before I get into the recipe for this – and it’s a very easy, but very important recipe – I have a confession.  Or a realization.  I realized that while I’m pretty good at taking the process photos of a recipe, I fail miserably at taking photos of the finished product.  A few days after [...]

Let’s get the definitions out of the way first.  This dressing is not “salad dressing”.  This is dressing the way we Southerners use it:  a bread based side dish that is baked in a casserole and NOT stuffed into the body of the bird.  In other words if you cook your stuffing outside of the [...]

If you read this in an RSS feed, you might not notice the changes to the layout of the blog recently. (Well, that and because I haven’t been posting regularly!) The thing is, the two are tied together. While I loved the “magazine style” of the other layout, I didn’t like how difficult it was [...]

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone who is celebrating, today. I hope your day was filled with fun, family, and food! (Thanksgiving recipes coming, really, truly, I promise!)
