“Pumpkin Cheesecake” or “The Best Thing Ever!”
tweet this
This comes straight out of The Taste of Home Cookbook. I don't know why I was always wary of cheesecakes. Perhaps it was the disastrous efforts of trying to make my mom's famous fudge. Candy is a real doozy. But I will perfect my mom's fudge this year. And of course I'll be sharing the recipe. Also look forward to some Martha Washington balls from my mom's friend Ruby this Christmas. I write this as my heart breaks about my oven. The coil caught on fire earlier tonight, and I almost cried. Especially since I had just deposited an Enchilada Verde...
Thanksgivin’ Time: Pumpkin Zucchini Bread
I was poking around on Danielle's blog a few weeks ago and I found a wonderful recipe for homemade deodorant, which by the way, freaking rocks. I haven't smelled so good for such an extended period of time in a long while. Anyway, I had seen that she had made a Berry Zucchini Bread. It looked awesome, so I made a mental note to try it. This morning, while procrastinating away from the old bills and papers I need to file and go through, I started flipping through a cookbook my mom gave me last Christmas. I was looking...
Twin Peaks Lasagna
Filed under: easy dinners, entertainment, vegetarian dinner
After a long week at work, my husband and I bummed out on the couch for the better half of the afternoon watching the first episode of Twin Peaks. We recently visited some of the places where they filmed. We took a belated honeymoon because neither of our work schedules matched up until October 3-10. We flew out to Seattle because we both had always wanted to go. Most people didn't really seem as psyched as us to be going out to the west coast. Joe's sister-in-law, Linda, told me about this luxurious Salish Lodge in Snoqualmie Falls which is...
New Orleans Bread Pudding from Dooky Chase
Holy crap, y'all! This is going to make you want to slap your grandma it is so good. My mom found this recipe from a Southern Living magazine. When she was making it the first time for herself, she talked about all the ingredients over the phone. And it became my mission to get a copy of this fabulous thing. She's made it several times since, and she has started calling the bourbon sauce "dooky sauce." Yes, Maxine is a trip. I tried it out this past weekend, and we liked it so much that...
Publix Special Week: Creamy Crab Pasta
Filed under: easy dinners, pasta, Publix grocery specials
I haven't made a white wine cream sauce in a long while. Last night, I just had to have it. One reason was that I kept thinking about the steamed crabs sitting in my frig. I like to go with the Publix grocery specials, so when the crabs were $4 off, I had to do it. HAD TO. My father-in-law, Frank (aka Fransky to those who know and love him), first introduced me to creamy seafood pastas. After I got real into them, I started researching, and beurre blanc recipes popped...
