Don’t forget to enter out Kindle eBook Giveaway before Sunday evening! After I finished with Nana’s Chocolate Pie I still had one pie crust left over. I hate to see food go to waste because I see hungry people every work day, so I am very appreciative of what we have. I knew I wasn’t going…

Nana’s Chocolate Pie
My nana was a wonderful woman who tried like the dickens to teach me to cook, iron, crochet and any number of other domestic arts. The only one she ever succeeded in was teaching me to can fruits and vegetables from the garden. Every once in a while I decide there was something she cooked…
A Mother Daughter Project: Ebook
My daughter is having a baby. Yep, on April 19th my grandson will be born. April 19th is the anniversary of the Murrah Building bombing in Oklahoma so the date has not been a day of celebration here, but it will be now! Because she was born when I was a teenager, we sort of…
Burritos The Easy Way
Such a busy weekend ahead. Finishing up the Micro-canning eBook as well as formating and uploading the Guide to Garage Sales eBook. There will be little time to cook. Since I don’t do it that well anyway, I doubt anyone complains! I am going to use one of my fall-back recipes that everyone loves! I…

Parrothead Jerky

We aren’t big drinkers although we both enjoy margaritas and I love local wines….mostly I love visiting local wineries and tasting! My husband, the parrothead, loves margaritas and anything else associated with the Jimmy Buffett lifestyle. I will…
Tale of an eBook
I love the new term “indie author” and I think I may become one. Two years ago, I wrote a book about canning, gardening and a few recipes that I have gathered over the years. I tried so hard to get an agent to no avail. That’s not really a bad thing because many famous…
