Why Oh Why Oh Why???
Thursday, May 31st, 2007Before I go any further…answer me this!! Why if we are not going through the biblical 7 years of famine are we creating recipes featuring bugs? We were out today trying to snap some pictures of molting cicada’s–and when none were to be found I looked them up–and THIS is what I came up with!!!Ok—That [...]
Ahhhh, Food!!
Friday, May 25th, 2007I just went back over this blog–and I should say—–very dangerous to do on an empty stomach! Now I want boiled dinner, shrimp, and pigs in the blanket for dinner, with strawberry cupcakes, toffee bars and strawberry shortcake for dessert! Man–that’s what I get for writing about cooking!!
Actually it’s pizza night–and that means pizza [...]
Changing Tastes!!
Thursday, May 24th, 2007I think it’s funny that certain foods that were foreign when I was growing up have become favorites since getting married. I’ve never liked Peas or Beets–and that hasn’t changed, but last night I made Steak sandwiches with grilled onions. I had never had grilled onions before marrying my husband–who knew they were [...]
Tagged–Different–But Again!!
Saturday, May 19th, 2007Nellie over at Me & My Life has tagged me with a new and unusual meme. I am to name five local places that I like to eat. The complete rules:
1. Link to the name of the person who tagged you.
2. Include the state and country you’re in.
3. List your top 5 [...]
Japan 77!!
Tuesday, May 15th, 2007All I can say for my birthday dinner out—FABULOUS!!! We took the kids to Japan 77–it’s a lot like Benihana–they cook at your table and charge an arm and a leg for it! Well, my kids thought it was the greatest thing in the world. They ate like true Sumo wrestlers as [...]
Mother’s Day!!
Thursday, May 10th, 2007We are going to be spending Mother’s Day Brunch at my husbands restaurant. That’s kind of nice–but it does make it hard for me. He has a great menu planned–but it will mean it’s me all alone with the 4 kids-and that is rough. Especially when the 2 year old knows he’s at [...]
Boiled Dinner!!
Sunday, May 6th, 2007Yesterday was an AWFUL day! I do know why and I hate that, I haven’t taken my happy pills in a bit–and it’s biting me in the butt! I couldn’t cope with anything, I finally had to kick the older two out to the yard, and I put the younger two down for [...]
Toffee Bars!!
Thursday, May 3rd, 2007I am going to make Toffee Bars today! It just sounds so good! I love the crust–and hey–anything that uses condensed milk is a winner in my book! I think I will have Kate help me when she gets home from her field trip. She loves to feel like a little mom [...]
Cancun Shrimp Cocktail!!
Wednesday, May 2nd, 2007We are going to have Shrimp for dinner tonight! I can’t wait! I was originally going to make Taco’s, but with the Chef off for the night we are going to have him make Cancun Shrimp cocktail! Yep, you know you all wish you were married to the chef, huh!!! Not really, his [...]
BBQ Chicken!!
Wednesday, May 2nd, 2007Monday night my husband came home from work early enough to get the grass cut and the grill heated up. We brought home a ton of chicken drumsticks and some steaks to grill. We have a family of 6 so a slab of 24 drumsticks is just a bit on the ‘excessive’ side. [...]
Strawberry Shortcake!!
Tuesday, May 1st, 2007My husband has been making pound cake strawberry shortcake for a dessert choice at work the past couple of days. He makes them in mini loaf pans–and they are AMAZING!! He’s brought me home many the past couple of days. Strawberry Shortcake has always been my favorite–and his—mmmmmm! I’ve had shortcake with [...]
