Greek Pasta Salad

  Ugh.  It has been one of THE WORST days at work.  I was almost in tears with the amount of stress I have been up against today.  I had planned on performing this task monthly.  For some reason with the current budget the way it’s been going; I just knew we’d have to report…AGAIN!…

Loves me some giveaways!

I was a sloth Sunday.  Consequently, no delicious dessert recipe this week and not much for main dishes either.  I had planned a couple of dishes, but S nixed one so …. yeah. I foresee cookies.  Possibly cupcakes.  Maybe a quick bread or two this weekend?  I have an idea for some rolls…like the bread…

I have been nominated for a Liebster Award!!  Um…what exactly is that and what did I get? I, like many others across the net, it seems, have researched far and wide for the origins of this award.  I, like many others across the net, didn’t come up with the exact origins of this award.  I…

Have you lost your cheese?

  So, I took this online survey about cheese.  I was truly hoping to just get a sample of cheese for free in the mail.  Well….I’m not sure if that’s going to happen or not.  Anyway, they called me and asked if I’d be willing to participate in a cheese research thingy.  She didn’t actually SAY thingy, but I’ve…

Salmon Cakes

Salmon Cakes So, I got a little bored with myrecipes.com and decided to search Pinterest for some salmon cakes.  Can I just say…it’s really annoying to have 80billion people pin the same stupid thing with NO FECKIN DESCRIPTION!!  JEBUS!

Braised Cabbage and Leeks with Turkey Sausage

Braised Cabbage and Leeks with Turkey Sausage recipe Cooking Light, January 2002 This is similar to a recipe I usually make. Bavarian something…I can’t remember. Anyway, I wanted something just a little different to make with the sausage. This was just a little different. True to form, I didn’t really follow the recipe. I had…

Steak Diane

Steak Diane recipe Cooking Light, July 2005I’ve never had steak diane before, so I didn’t know what to expect. It was pretty good. Really good, even. I don’t know what the big deal is about this dish because it was really easy to make and didn’t take too long to cook. This is a recipe…

Smothered Pork Chops with Onions and Cheddar Grits

Smothered Pork Chops recipe Cooking Light, MAY 2003 We had these last night for dinner. I didn’t have quick cooking grits (what self-respecting southerner does), but they didn’t take that much longer to cook than the quick ones. You need a really large pan for the onions to brown and the chops to fry. The…

Garlic Fries

Garlic Fries Cooking Light, SEPTEMBER 2007 I just gotta say 3 pounds of potatoes makes a LOT of fries! I only used about 2 pounds and we had PLENTY! I also didn’t read the recipe…50 minutes!! HOLY! Needless to say, we ate late last night. For once, I have to say, there was too much…

Gratin Dauphinoise

Gratin Dauphinois (Scalloped Potatoes with Cheese) Cooking Light, JANUARY 2002 I’ve tried the CL scalloped potatoes and they are TOO WATERY!! These were perfect! We added more cheese, because 1/2 cup just didn’t seem like enough. They were really good and the cheese got really brown on top, which I LOVE! I will probably take…

Root vegetables add a touch of sweetness to this savory Yankee Pot Roast stew. Yankee cooks traditionally add the vegetables partway through the cooking process, which helps keep them from breaking down

Yankee Pot Roast

Yankee Pot Roast Cooking Light, OCTOBER 2007 Meh. It’s pot roast. I liked the addition of parnips to this, but I didn’t do any of the other interesting root veggies. Just onions, potatoes, carrots, and the parnips. They are REALLY sweet when cooked, if you haven’t tried them before. If you roast them, they’re like…

Beef Goulash

Beef Goulash Cooking Light, MARCH 2006 We made this recipe last night. We didn’t follow the directions to a T because, seriously, 2+ hours?? I don’t think so. I think it’s something I would convert to a slow cooked recipe, though. So, we followed the directions to the point where you cook the stew WITHOUT…
