A Smorgastarta is a Swedish Sandwich Cake recipe that has many variations. I had my first one at my Aunt and Uncle’s home on graduation night for my cousin. Aunt Jan used bright pink food coloring for one of the layers and I was so mesmerized by this great tasting savory “cake” with bright pink…
New Year Recipe
Fat Sam’s Meaty Melted Man Dip
The weather is finally warm and beautiful here in the land of the Sooner. In fact, it is going to be in the 90’s for the next few days….that might be a little too hot for me! Nonetheless, we are doing all things summer-like at the house these days like grilling burgers, which is one…
Nana’s Pound Cake
Today is National Pound Cake Day! I love pound cake, don’t you? When I am nauseated, pound cake is the best internal settler I have found. Do you have a favorite kind of pound cake like me? My Nana’s (of course) was the very best – but a cold piece of Sara Lee will do…
Happy New Year!
My goodness! What a holiday season it has been for us. I’m sorry I have not had many posts/recipes but I will get back to it soon. Let me explain: On Christmas Eve, my mother’s best friend – also the lady who made Top Girl’s wedding dress – passed away. She was 88 and while…
No Mess Hot Wings
Do you like hot wings but do not like the sticky wetness of it all? That’s how I am because there is nothing I hate worse than getting my fingers and hands messy but I do love the taste of chicken wings. I have spent the better part of the last two years trying to…
Hello Dolly Treats
Have you had enough pumpkin and cranberry to last a full year? Me too. The hoopla of the day is over and things are calm once again. I have been wanting something coconut lately but there is no one who will indulge in that with me except my mother. Yesterday as I was preparing most…
Rice Krispie Candy
I found this recipe on the Imperial Sugar site and knew I wanted to try these. They were made for Imperial Sugar by the blogger at Fields of Cake. The recipe is easy and the taste is deee-licious! I changed it just a little by adding my own idea of what good toppings would be…
Angels on Horseback
If I had titled this “Rumaki” you may still not have known what I was posting about today but when I say chicken liver – I’m losing a bunch of you! Please try to bear with me because I do have something for you at the end, I promise. I’ve had a love affair with…
Taco Meatball Wreath Appetizers or a Meal
Several days ago, I was reading my FB newsfeed when one of the pages I follow showed this great picture saying they were preparing that meal for dinner. The page is called Briar Rose Bed and Breakfast. The B & B is a beautiful place in Reedsville, Pennsylvania and the proprietors are just lovely people!…
Three Cheese Sausage Balls
These are great for football and tailgating as well as parties! Easy to make and so moist and tender… My husband and I always stay home on New Year’s Eve. When we were younger, we always went out but I’m not interested in freezing to death in a dress or dodging drunk drivers so we…
