This was one of those happy accidents that I often have. I made these the day I made the fruitcakes and when I took out the hamburger, my brain was thinking, “make Salisbury steaks”. But it was in the MIDDLE of making the fruitcake so I had my mind on several things as once. The…
Beef
Sloppy Jacks for Sunday Supper
I hope everyone had a lovely weekend. We are preparing for yet another yard sale next Friday and Saturday so it has been a really busy day. I had planned to make beef ribs with a new BBQ sauce I got from a blogger friend of mine whose recipe I pinned. Then, when I got…
Football, Super Bowl, Tailgating and Diets: Chicken Fried Steak Sliders
I haven’t posted anything this week and I’m sorry. I cannot get used to it being dark when I get home from work. Next Saturday night we turn the clocks back another hour. Top Girl doesn’t like daylight savings time so she will be more than glad for it to be over, but I don’t…

Carne Asada Nachos
Top Girl came over last night to help me with some bloggy stuff while her husband and Rocket spent time with his parents. The weather was cool, rainy, and dreary so some warm comfort food was in order but working full time prevents a long-involved recipe and prep so as I drove home, I went…
Meatballs Recipe
I can honestly say that I don’t hate cooking anymore and I even enjoy it most of the time now. In order to reduce heating the kitchen each night after being gone for nearly 12 hours, I decided to make my famous meatballs and then freeze them. I already can spaghetti sauce each summer so…
