We are creatures of habit. Every Mexican restaurant between Colorado and North Carolina has been the same, by way of ordering I mean.... like so: Hubbyman: Steak Fajitas - The Kid: Taco Salad Bowl - Me: Chili Rellenos It never changes, even when I say.... I WILL have something new, I will I will I … Continue reading Chili Relleno Dip
To say I am a lemon fanatic would, undoubtedly, be an understatement. I have lemons in my fridge, on my counter and everywhere in between all year. I don't just toss the lemons once the pumpkins hit the stores. I can not get enough of them and my BFF Pam is the same way. She … Continue reading Strawberry Lemonade Rice Pudding
Muffuletta Dip is a deconstructed version of that Big Easy favorite. It's has all the same flavors of the beloved sandwich but now it's ready to party!! A good friend showed me her recipe for this and I was so impressed that I had to make my own, with a few twists of course. Thanks … Continue reading Muffuletta Dip
Yes, I know... I spelled Betty wrong. Let me explain. In the community we live in, the areas are divided up into smaller communities with individual names. We are all considered the Down East ( ummm the ORIGINAL) community, but we all have our own little name. We live in Bettie, funny to some I … Continue reading Apple Brown Bettie
I make this sauce all the time. Please don't confuse it with its thicker counterpart. It is first and foremost a sauce. Its thicker than water and thinner than store bought caramel... does that help? Its good... and as the title states.... easy peasy. I found this in Granny's recipe book... although I do not … Continue reading Easy Peasy Caramel Sauce
Cooking is not the only activity that brings me joy. I love DYI projects, especially any that I can do using recycled items, or re-purpose inexpensive items into something new and unique. I am a dollar store fanatic. I take my finds from my trips and turn them into decorations that are all mine. I … Continue reading Easter Tulle Wreath
Busy weeknights are a given. We all have them and we all loathe them. I don't want to say, "that's life," but it kinda is. This quick family meal can come together in less than 30 minutes, its hearty and comforting. My family really enjoys it, and honestly, I do too. The flavors are full … Continue reading Tex-Mex Taters
Cake! There really is no need for too many words to describe it. Cake, kinda just stands alone as a noun, verb, and an adjective... well, not really, but in my little world..cake, is a complete sentence. That hubbyman of mine is a pineapple, coconut loving freakaziod. I have a recipe for Aloha Cake, but … Continue reading Tropical Sunrise Cake
I have had numerous requests for this recipe. All Down East ( Eastern Carteret County NC) women have a recipe for light rolls. My daddy called em Light Bread Biscuits... it's the same thing... no difference and all the recipes are just a wee bit different.... I did not do a step by step photo … Continue reading Carteret County Light Rolls
I really wanted to name these sandwiches "Meatball Boats", so I did...I have no idea why I thought of that. Maybe it is because I sit here and research recipes daily and I see so many names for so many of the same recipes. For example: Meatball Hoagies, Meatball Subs, Meatball Sandwiches, Meatball Heros, Meatball … Continue reading Italian Meatball Boats
