Dorothy, Gale & Barry

Barry's cousin, Debra, took this picture of me and Barry with his Mom last weekend. I like it.

Library Page Added

I added a new page to my blog. On the LIBRARY page I've added my Cooking Bookshelf where I list all of my cook books. I LOVE books, all kinds. Stop by and browse.

Family

When you get married you get more family. I really enjoy visits with my sister-in-law, Karen.

Sophie in the garden

Sophie and I are looking forward to working in the gardens this year. Yesterday we potted a few plants for the front porch. Today we'll finish mulching the tree rings in the front yard. She loves being outside and you can almost always find her relaxing on the lounge chair.

Great recipe web site

I miss living in the south - especially the food. When I first moved here I tried to find someone that grew turnip greens. I was told of one farmer that did - but for his pigs. GASP! I guess many people don't eat them out this way. I can get them frozen and so I make do.

Not long ago I stumbled upon the Southern Plate web site. I'm so glad I did. Where else can you find fried bologna sandwiches and sweet tea! It's like a walk down memory lane. I sure miss my Mama and her wonderful cooking.

Drop by and pick a recipe for dinner. You'll be glad you did.
