Country Fried Fingers
Country Fried Fingers. No they are not fingers of country folk, but they are definitely country fried delicious. Basically it is country fried steaks sliced into nice finger strips. When you have a 3 year old staying with you, you try to come up with ‘kid’ friendly foods. I didn’t want to serve the standard American kid […]
Doting Grandma
Can I tell you that I love being a Grandma? Not interested? Sorry but I am a doting Grandmother, and I can’t help but share this last Labor Day Weekend.
Peach Mango Salsa
Summer Fruit, yeah for fruit! Honestly I don’t eat much fruit, mostly because I a fruit snob. I am seriously picky about eating fruit. It must be fresh and taste intensely of whatever type of fruit it is. When I first heard of fruit based salsas, I was skeptical for sure. I am a […]
