Today is very sunny, making me think of spring but it is windy and very cold reminding me it is still winter here. Basically that means a part of me wants to get outside and run, hop, skip, and jump or at least get outside and THINK about running, hopping, skipping, and jumping. The other…
Holidays
S’Mores Truffles
It’s been a while hasn’t it? It’s been a strange week, that’s for sure! First, I caught the flu that everyone has been talking about and just so you know, they are not exaggerating. Then something happened to a member of my husband’s family that had me pretty busy for a while – but finally,…
Flying Burritos
I called them that because they fly off the plate and into your mouth because they are so good! They are not spicy, unless you want them to be and they can be vegetarian if you want them to be – and all at once! Confused? Yes, Mr. Picky Eater says I can do that…
Strawberry Cheesecake Puppy Chow with Dark Chocolate Accent
Tomorrow is a big Valentine Day competition at work. We are having the chocolate competition because it is Mardi Gras and there may be some people giving up sweets or chocolate for Lent beginning Wednesday. We will be raising money for our Employee Recognition. Since we work for Government, there is no budget to…
Cheddar Biscuits for My Valentine
Valentine Day is Thursday and Mr. Picky Eater has already told me he has plans for us so I thought that last night I would make him something special. I was beginning to think I was not going to be able to find anything to make him but as I was looking through Sweet Jeanette’s…
Neapolitan Cookies
I love Neapolitan ice cream so I was pretty sure I would like Neapolitan cookies when I saw the recipe on allrecipes. When Mr. Picky Eater saw me preparing the ingredients, he asked what was in Neapolitan cookies. I told him chocolate, nuts, and cherries. His response was to ask if I could substitute something…
Crocked Cherry Cola Chocolate Cake
I saw the original recipe on Taste of Home’s email newsletter but I didn’t think the dried cherries would go over very well. If you want to use those, just use ½ a Cup and soak them in the ½ cup cola instead of the cherry chips and you’ll be fine. This is “crocked” because…
Luscious Little Lemon Pies
Remember the dissolution of Hostess? Mr. Picky Eater just loved those Hostess Lemon Pies. Remember my Small Fried Pies? I married the two with the help of a recipe @ Food Lust People Love and made him very happy! First, I made Stacy’s Lemon Curd recipe with these ingredients: LUSCIOUS LITTLE LEMON PIES 2 lemons…
Mexican Chocolate Cornbread
Before you skip this recipe and move on to another blog, bear with me a few minutes! I love the site Yum Goggle and if you have not been over there yet, click the link and spend a little time there. It is like a 24 hour a day Linky Party – only with bigger…
Crock Pot Hot Rolls
Nearly every Sunday night, we have “dinner”. I usually cook something that takes more time and effort than either of us prepare during the week. On those nights, we have Rhodes Rolls. At least on those nights that I remember to put them out to rise in the early afternoon. Sometimes we get busy and…
