Crispy Peaches

Crispy Peaches

Today was peach day.   I made 10 jars of peach jam and some fruit leather. My jam recipe comes from the insert in the pectin box so it’s nothing exciting to report, but it is tasty.  This time I made 5 jars of peach jam and five jars of strawberry peach jam. I’m always […]

Beef Stew

Beef Stew

If I turn down the air conditioner temperature low enough and watch the Hallmark Channel Christmas in July movies then I can pretend it’s not 96 degrees outside.  To complete this clever ruse, I also make a winter supper of beef stew with dumplings.  As I have said multiple times recently, I don’t really care […]

On this particular visit I bought […]

Summer Supper

Summer Supper

I’m not a very good repeat eater.  I get tired of meals pretty quickly.  I like to eat a meal and move on to something different next time.  That’s one reason I enjoy my freezer so much because I can freeze the leftovers of a big batch and not have to plow through the whole amount in […]

Fourth of July 2016

Fourth of July 2016

There are cherry bombs and then there are cherry bombs!  My friend, Terri, recently sent me a text saying Happy Fourth of July…Cherry Bombs!  My mind went instantly to the 1970’s when my brother and our neighbor Dale would set off cherry bombs and other fireworks in our giant storm drain.  It was a big […]

Peaches and Swirls

Peaches and Swirls

The first freestone peaches of the season arrived yesterday at one of our favorite farmstands. This particular variety is called Fire Prince.  I don’t know the difference in the peaches, per se, but I can taste a difference if I have several to sample. There weren’t different ones to sample today, but I was just glad to […]

Blackberry Coconut Bars

Today was stinkin’ hot.  Super stinkin’ hot.  I simply do not do well in the heat.  It drains.  It discourages.  It makes me overly dramatic.  Insert long miserable sigh here. I cleaned my tile shower today.  Deep cleaned.  Do you have any idea how not exciting that is??  Then I straightened the kitchen.  That didn’t raise the […]

Creative Krispies

Last night I made the offspring some Rice Krispie Treats.  I used the new red, white, and blue Rice Krispies.  Look for them at Walmart! Olivia told me that she wanted me to make them in a creative shape.  Are you kidding me?  After a long day of cleaning which I always end up doing all […]
