Yes, this is that old-fashioned recipe that says you have to put these together from scratch, but it’s worth the time and effort it takes.  Real maple syrup is a bonus, too.  The mixes are okay if you’re in a hurry but they somehow don’t quite come up to the flavor you get from this […]

Mondays With Corn Pone

Okay, I know I’m early with a cooking article this week, but this is for cornbread, because our very own KoB voiced his objections to sugar (Never!!) and milk (Ickk!!

Pancakes – Cornmeal Griddle Cakes From Scratch This is an old-timey favorite, and occasionally, my dad used to fix it. I loved it, because the griddle cakes had a crispy edge to them and really soaked up the butter and maple syrup – but that’s just me. I was a kid. Kids are always hungry. […]

Thursdays Are For Cooking!!

  This is one I posted a while back, but it seems like a good idea to repost it now, because when the weather gets chilly and you want something hearty, filling and tasty, any thoughts of “on a diet” go right out the window. I did not specify whether your choice of Italian sausage […]

And this time, it’s soup… Soup, because soup weather is coming in like a bat out of hell and you know you want some comfort food that goes with Ritz crackers. So this is something I threw together because I wanted a hot bowl of soup and I did not want canned soup.  This was […]
