Mexican Pizza
Have you heard that the Taco Bell Mexican Pizza is back? Yeah, we heard that rumor, as well, but our local restaurants don't have it and don't know when they will. Something about "the warehouse is out." Not sure I understand that, because surely they have every...
Simple Summer Minestrone
Oh my, we have surely missed posting recipes for you, so here is Simple Summer Minestrone! We are still working on some software issues and trying to make things better for all of us, but I just couldn't help posting a recipe today. I love going through magazines and...

Instant Hot Wassail
We are dealing with winter colds around here and so it was time to make some Instant Hot Wassail. Because of the Vitamin C from Tang (good enough for astronauts, good enough for me) and lemonade mix, and the comfort of cinnamon and cloves, we like to drink this...
Sweet Potato Biscuits
Sweet Potato Biscuits–the first time I had one was at Venters Grill in Greenville, North Carolina. Back in the day when I worked at what was then Burroughs-Wellcome Pharmaceuticals (makers of Neosporin, Sudafed, etc.), you would have just enough time to scoot down the...
