  • Hamburger Patties

    Since Hubby needs to be out the door soon after I get home, quick meals are important. Hamburgers are one meal that can be put on the table quickly. Cook up some fries with it or serve some potato chips with the hamburgers. Add some raw veggies, and you have a complete meal. Hint about…

  • When I was in college back in the 1990’s, I worked at McDonald’s.  I usually worked at the front counter, front drive-thru, or back drive through.  Hubby knew I was someone special because I would take an order, take money, and be eating my dinner in the office next to the drive-thru all at the…

  • This is an easy meal to impress your guests with. On Sundays, we usually eat dinner with my mother-in-law.  It’s a tradition that started when Hubby and I were just married.  My father-in-law usually made the dinner.  When he died, we continued the tradition.  Sometimes I make the dinner.  Other times my mother-in-law makes the…

  • “Chef Paul’s World Famous Pancakes” or Wee One’s New Favorite Pancakes

    Disclaimer:  I don’t know Paul. He attended the same church my grandma did back in 1994, but that’s all I know. In 2007, my grandma fell and broke her leg. Since she had to go live in a nursing home, we had to clear out of her house. That was a somber and tedious task.…

  • We love chocolate chip cookies around here.  However, I’m not always in the mood to mix up a full batch of cookies.  Make ahead chocolate chip cookie mix to the rescue.  The dry ingredients are already mixed up, so all you need to do is add the wet ingredients and mix. Hint:  Use an electric…

  • In the last week, we’ve had homemade pizza twice.  Last Sunday I made a pizza for our Sunday night dinner at my mother-in-law’s house.  We then had it for supper on Saturday night.  I tried two new crust recipes and enjoyed the second one.  In fact, Hubby told me that the pizza was great on…

  • The Imaginative One could live on chocolate, popcorn, and French Fries. I’ve started baking my French Fries.  He loves them and will eat any fries left on the tray. The first hundred times (maybe not that much), it would take the fries a long time to bake which doesn’t help when I have to get…

  • The Imaginative One could live on 3 different foods – chocolate, popcorn, and French fries.  Sometimes in the evening, he’ll pop up some popcorn to eat as his nighttime snack.  I’ve shown him how to make microwave popcorn without all that mess that’s in microwave popcorn.  It’s as easy as 1 -2 -3 to make.…

  • The medicine I was given yesterday really has helped me feel better.  Plus the 11 hours of sleep I got last night has really helped me.  I’m still not at 100% but I’m at least at 70%.  Much better than I was feeling 3 days ago. My father-in-law had diabetes and blood pressure issues.  For…

  • This is an easy snack to assemble and bake.  They are also very yummy! They are also like Lay’s Chips.  Once you eat one, you can’t stop. Dilly Oyster Crackers Adapted from Cooks.com Stars of the recipe: Steps: Printable Recipe
