So we decided on Friday to make home made pizza on Saturday and what a great decision to make!!!!
Margaret helped by emailing me pizza sauce recipes at work for me to piece them together to find out what I wanted. Thankfully pizza sauce is easier to put together than spaghetti sauce. The difference between the [...]

Since this is about me, I’ll leave her to tell about her awesome omelet. I; on the other hand; had this “skillet” filled with goodies. From the bottom up, this is what I had: Fried potatoes, grilled onions, green peppers, and mushrooms covered [...]

So today I started brining a turkey to cook later today. I’m using Alton Brown’s brining recipe (posted below). It’s not too bad, plus the bird comes out juicy and brown. Can’t ask for much more than that.
I’m just happy to use up a 14lb turkey before we move. This week will be many turkey [...]

What’s better than a breakfast at your favorite restaurant? A new breakfast made at home of course.
I was interested in trying a baked omelet of sorts and this morning I took the plunge. With Margaret’s help we were able to slap together all the ingredients in record time. The longest part of [...]

Well, Christmas dinner turned out to be a bust. The sides were awesome, but the main dish turned out badly.
After scouring the web for a place that sold organic hams, I ordered it. I thought to myself, “I’m not going to eat no dog food eatin’ swine. No no no.”
So after following the directions on [...]

….At least so we thought.
Margaret wanted to buy something so we went to Target and found nothing. How odd is this, she is in the book isle and there’s nothing there that she wants that has been released? I know I know, Margaret not being able to find a book? Absurd isn’t it? Well, I [...]

Darryl’s been begging for some banana bread, but I was too busy last week to make any for him. Since I don’t want to be considered a bad wife I pulled out all my baking cookbooks today and found one that his grandma Thaden gave us. It’s fairly simple, and the good thing is I [...]
