Halloween Oreos
I’m here again tonight showing you yet another recipe you can make for a school party or bake sale or Halloween home party if you are not a baker, and like me, not a perfectionist. Nothing could be easier. 1. Go get one of these molds at Michael’s, although I’m sure they have them at…
Halloween Brownie Treats
As you will see at the end of the post – it’s a good thing I’m not a perfectionist! If you don’t cook much but need some Halloween treats AND you have a fairly steady hand (mine? Not so much) you can have around 25-30 good sized treats in no time at all! All…
Deer (Venison) and Duck Gumbo & It’s My Birthday!!
It’s my birthday; it’s my birthday, Happy Birthday to me! One year ago, I decided it was finally time for me to learn to cook. I was turning 50 in 366 days and surely during that time I could quasi-master the art of boiling water! Many of you have followed along during this journey and…
Rootin’ Tootin’ Two-Day Chili
It’s finally feeling like fall here in Central Oklahoma. In fact, it’s pretty chilly today and Saturday – also known as game day in Norman – is forecast to be almost cold! OU is playing down in Lubbock Texas but we (and I mean the entire family) will be watching on the TV and eating…

Mr. Picky-eater and Lawyer Boy play in the Golf competition each year and they also generally purchase some of the…

Small Fried Apple Pies
***This is the most important thing to remember when reading this post: Mr. Picky Eater LOVED them – he even complimented me. He didn’t get that nickname for throwing about admiration for my cooking skills, so this recipe is a great big success as far as I am concerned! As I was reading other…
Fresh Apple Cake
When my mother finally consented to give me the family recipe for apple cake, she insisted I call it “Fresh” Apple Cake – we had a conversation about “rotten” apple cake and the odds of THAT, but as mothers often do, she won out and so the official title of this post is Fresh Apple…
