It’s impossible for me to cook for less than an Army as evidenced by the inordinate amount of leftovers in my refrigerator. No wonder I’ve become a master at re-inventing the leftover. The problem is, my family is shrinking. I’m not talking about “Honey I Shrank the Kids”, I mean my babies are all growing […]
Do real men eat quiche? McGyver does, but I’m not sure if a helicopter pilot, retired veteran and biker dude counts as a real man? In my book he is, and he loves quiche. What’s not to love about an egg pie?
It’s Secret Recipe Club reveal day. I am very pleased to announce that I was assigned Manu’s Menu. Here’s something you probably don’t know, I’ve been a Foodbuzz friend of Manuela’s blog for sometime. You can imagine my delight when I saw who’s blog I was assigned. Considering how many blogs I read and the […]
It’s no secret, I have a split personality. I don’t mean like Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde, it’s more of redneck/white trash versus socially refined, kind of way. In other words, you can take the girl out of the trailer park but you can’t take the trailer park out of the girl. I don’t live […]

Health Alert Warning! Before proceeding please check your cholesterol, blood pressure, lipids, blood sugar levels or anything else that may be affected by a totally decadent sandwich. Oh, it looks innocent enough, no more then a couple of pieces of French Toast, you’re probably thinking. But it is so much more. I thought about calling […]
In honor of William and Kate’s wedding, my post today is British themed. Some of you already know this, but for those of you who don’t, I spent 4 years living in England. Receiving an overseas assignments was one of the best perks of being in the military. It was so incredibly exciting, I had […]
I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter. I spent most of mine cooking, that is improvising my cooking. I also had some drama, not too serious but scary (more on that in a moment). I failed to plan for Easter (that’s not the drama I’m talking about). I more than failed to plan, I didn’t […]
Pease porridge hot, Pease porridge cold, Pease porridge in the pot, nine days old; Some like it hot, some like it cold, Some like it in the pot, nine days old. When I was just a wee child, last year (not really but it seems like that), my mother would serve me oatmeal. And I […]
