Seafood Stew

Are you like me…a push-over for a food magazine? I never met one I didn’t like and rarely pass one on the shelf that I don’t pick up and glance through. More often than not, they come right on home with me. I can sit and read them for hours. So, when I picked up [...]

It has been an interesting week around our house! Last Friday we got about 4 inches of snow. I know to some of you 4 inches of snow is nothing. However, for anywhere in Georgia that’s a lot. Needless to say, it shut down everything around here. Roads closed, schools closed, stores closed. I mean [...]

I don’t know how or why I ever thought of this recipe, but I’m so glad I did. Maybe it was a wish to change up a regular burger a little. You know, make it more interesting? And, without bragging too much, I have to say that this recipe is a real winner! It’s like [...]

Have I told you about Neena? Neena is my mom. Neena is what all of her grandchildren call her. It started when my daughter, L, was a baby and tried to say her name but it came out sounding like Nee-Nah. And she’s been Neena ever since.
Neena is a fabulous cook and southern cuisine is [...]

Do you have recipes that are your “go-to” dishes? Ones that you’ve cooked so many times you could make them with your eyes closed? I do, and this is one of them. Italian sausage and peppers is a long-time favorite in our house. While neither one of us has an ounce of Italian heritage, we are [...]

I found this recipe for Bistro Chicken on the Kraft Foods web site a while back and since I happened to have some chicken breasts on hand I thought I’d give it a try. It turned out to be a keeper! It was simple and quick to put together and uses ingredients that most of [...]

Country Fried Steak

I rarely fry foods these days. After all, it makes a big mess on the stove, the whole house smells for days afterwards, and it’s not all that healthy. However, once in a while, I just have to open up some windows, put on a big apron and fry up a batch of country fried steak. It’s another [...]

Chicken and Dumplings

This is one of BeeBop’s all-time favorite dishes and one of mine, too. Chicken and Dumplings brings up all kinds of good memories from childhood. I really don’t know anyone who doesn’t remember their mama making chicken and dumplings. Just mention it and people get this wistful, longing look like they’re going back in time in their minds. [...]

Pot Roast with Rosemary and Garlic

What can you say about pot roast? Nearly everyone likes it. Especially children. It’s easy, fairly inexpensive and even beginner cooks can be successful with a pot roast. It’s nearly as homey and comforting as a meatloaf and takes lots less prep time.
I was stuck in a rut for a long time making pot roasts [...]

With the rapid approach of the Fall season and Winter quickly on its heels, we seem to be cranking up the grill more often. I think we’re trying to get in as much outdoor cooking as we can before cooler weather forces us indoors. Not that we wouldn’t grill in the winter. Actually, when BeeBop [...]
