I would imagine that many of us are serving a baked ham today, moist and delicious!! I bake mine a bit differently using my slow cooker sometimes or a parchment cover in the oven, slow cooking for 30 minutes per pound at 250 degrees. I used to use paper bags from the grocery store, but …

Dinosaur Eggs for Easter – a healthy alternative
I really enjoy doing silly stuff for the ladies that I work with. For years I have done candy and sweets for various holidays, but with the staff we have now, one of the girls is diabetic. I certainly cannot add to her difficulties with her diet by giving her sweets. She is struggling hard …

Cabbage Rolls with Brown Sauce
Something about the month of March makes me crave cooked cabbage. Corned beef and cabbage is a wonderful meal, but have you seen the cost of a corned beef brisket lately? A bit pricey, so I decided to go a different route. All the recipes I found on the internet had a tomato sauce, not …
Panko Crusted Deviled Turkey Breast
One of my favorite things to do is to cook for guys. It is fun to prepare something hearty and flavorful, and watch it disappear with second helpings. Recently, I had one of my husband's friends over for dinner while his wife was out of town visiting her family. DH and best car buddy had …

Low Carb Crustless Anything Quiche
What can you do with the little bits of things left over from the week? Those bits of meat and vegetables, too much to throw away and too little to make a serving? I know a lot of you out there make soup. My brother-in-law likes to put leftover veggies cold in salads. Actually it …
New Year’s Good Luck Lunch – Jumpin’ John
It is said that you should do on New Year's Day what you want to do all year long. So, I played today, did some sewing and crafting, a little creative cooking, and left the laundry alone. I have a new quilting design in the works and I started on it today. Here's a sneak …
Christmas Tablescape and an Appetizer recipe
Whether the celebration is on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day, the perfect menu needs a pretty setting. This year I set my table with the Lenox Holiday Tartan china I inherited from my mother. Red placemats embroidered with green holly leaves and cutwork are at each place, with matching napkins in holly berry metal napkin …

A Christmas Lunch Tablescape and Cookie Exchange
Holidays are so much fun, and a great excuse to ask a few friends over for a little holiday lunch and cookie exchange. Keeping these small and simple are my preference, and I only have to make 4 dozen cookies. The table is set in the informal area on the game table. I like a …
