I’m going to tell y’all something today and I need this to stay just between us. You see, I love Alabama. I have lived in Alabama all of my life (except for a three month sabbatical to Georgia) and I plan on spending the rest of my days residing in this great state. If this [...]

This recipe is another one of my favorite super easy, quick to throw together, family pleasing, and incredibly delicious meals, originally from mother’s recipe collection. One of the best things about it is how incredibly adaptable it is to whatever ingredients you have on hand! I’ve made it with absolutely no cheese before and it [...]

*If you have a service member overseas, these cookies are my most requested recipe to send. They travel very well and stay moist. I’ve had packages take as long as three weeks to arrive, only still get rave reviews when I’d tucked these bars inside! If you can, send a package. It make a world [...]

I received an email from one of my readers recently asking me how I make my meatloaf. You know after that email I was craving me some good old meatloaf! Its such a simple meal, and quite homely, but still so darn good! I often think my mother makes it purely so they can have [...]

I had a great time on the CocktailCafe Mom Talk radio show! The other moms were fabulous women, so nice and welcoming! I’ve definitely got a learning curve. My main problem was, there were three other co-hosts and we couldn’t see each other. Of course, you are supposed to jump right on in and start [...]

This recipe is one my mother and I have used for over twenty years, and we still love it. Many diets have “free” vegetables, which are basically vegetables that are allowed without restriction. What this soup does is combine those vegetables in with a richly flavored broth and serves them up as the perfect anytime [...]

I love to bake ham (the proper pronunciation in my neck of the woods is “ha-yum”). Its super simple, incredibly delicious, and yields enough to provide several meals. Whats more, anything that is left over is easily frozen to recycle into casseroles, beans, omelets, and more at a later date. There are as many ways [...]

Mention Southern food and whats the first thing that comes to mind? Fried Chicken, lard, deep fried everything. We have a reputation for eating what many consider the most unhealthy food out there but this reputation is incredibly unwarranted and I think mainly due to tourists stopping over and getting “authentic” southern cuisine served at [...]

I’m going to start the new year off with some “real” food that is real easy! A quick and easy meal, with a little bit of a tweet to up the ante. I LOVE Sloppy Joes, but this recipe adds that extra oomph that is sure to please! The first time I made these (right [...]
