Round Steak with Mushrooms
My hubby recently went grocery shopping and picked up a package of round steak…thinking we’d have a nice, tender, juicy steak for dinner. As we know, round steak is far from juicy, and even farther from tender. Thus, I tend to shy away from round steak. As a matter of fact, I have very few […]
Applesauce (Freezer)
My neighbor has an apple tree that produced a huge crop this year. So, she brought over a sack full. Now I am quite picky with what type of apples I use in baking, and I wasn’t sure what kind of apples these were. So, I thought, why not just make some applesauce? Years ago, […]
Chocolate Strawberry Layer Cake
This three layer, moist chocolate cake is filled with delicious strawberry buttercream frosting. That’s good in itself, but top that off with a layer of chocolate ganache and chocolate covered fresh strawberries for a real treat. This cake takes time to prepare, but it’s worth every minute. Enjoy!

I usually oven bake my baby back ribs, but John wanted to try cooking them on the grill. So, I went online, to see how other folks grill their ribs…you know, what temperature, method, etc. Based on my findings, I came up with this method, using some of the steps that I use in my […]

However, occasionally, I’ll come across a recipe that intrigues me, as this one did. I tried it, we liked it, so here’s […]
Buttermilk Pie
The first time I tasted buttermilk pie was on a trip to West Virginia. I was quite hesitant to try it as I’m not a fan of sour tasting milk, but, so as not to insult the hostess, I graciously accepted. Wow…one bite of that pie and I was sold! It’s a light, creamy pie […]
Marinara Sauce
Whenever we have pasta, my family prefers a meat sauce. But sometimes, you need a classic, simple serving of marinara sauce. Whenever I make chicken or eggplant parmesan, I serve it with a side of spaghetti with this marinara sauce. If I have a small amount of sauce left, I freeze it in 4 ounce […]
Southern Buttermilk Biscuits
Nothing goes better with a plate of stew or a bowl of sausage gravy, than a hot, out of the oven buttermilk biscuit. Talk about southern hospitality, these fluffy biscuits are easy to make, are very tasty and have that down home flavor. This recipe yields 12 biscuits (I use a 2 1/2 inch cutter).
