I DID eat some diet food! While I was waiting for this Pepperoni Meatball Sub Casserole to bake! The diet food is called a salad and it goes perfectly with this Pepperoni Meatball Sub Casserole.

I think there is a rule about how many pork roasts one can make in a single week. I have now broken that rule. I’m embarrassed to say, I still can’t get enough. The Sprakers might be eating Slow Cooked Crock Pot Cuban Sandwich again in the next few days, don’t tell the Sweet Hubby, …
I hear your thoughts, “if she thinks that I have time to can Green Beans, she is CRAZY!” “I would rather just pay for beans at the store”. “I just want to come home, get dinner on the table and move on with life!” But, my dear friend, Canning your own food DOES SAVE you …
“The fruits and veggies are to DIE for!”. That is my main observation of California – because – Wow, ya’ll, those are awesome fruits and veggies!

Sometimes you just want a little taste of home. Where is that exactly? For me, it is more of a time than a place. Home is back in the 1970’s where my days always ended having accomplished at least a few of the following: a scraped knee, a scraped elbow, a bicycle ride, the sweaty …

As someone who has said, “Fruit in your green salad? …. Ewwww!” or “I think the world would be better without that particular combination of foods – just keep your fruits and your green vegetables separate please”, I should probably be ashamed. I usually fancy myself as a socially liberal but financially conservative person (I’ll …
My cup is always more than half full! Guess what happens when I am sick? I learn about all kinds of new TV programs that I might never have discovered! I think I told you one time before about how I had been binge watching Ramen Noodle cooking shows on Netflix (food GEEK!) and that …
Today, we, (meaning sweet hubby [Mr. Loaves and Dishes] and I ) are on day 8 of what we could lovingly call “a cold” but for these writing purposes, I’ll just call it “THE snotty coughing death”. And while I had some lovely recipes planned that included a new spaghetti dish as well as a …
