And old standby for sure. Great cookie for kids because they aren’t real messy.

Chocolate Crinkle Cookies
This is Jason’s favorite cookie. So much so that in my 50 year old recipe book I have crossed out the name Chocolate Crinkles and re-named them Jason’s Cookies. I have to say they are probably my favorite too. What can I say, they are CHOCOLATE, and moist and chewy and festive looking with their…
Brownies
This bar cookie became popular in the roaring 20’s. You know it’s good to have lasted that long. It is still popular for picnics, lunch boxes, and of course there is always that decadent dessert, the brownie sundae. This particular recipe produces a wonderful moist, chewy, chocolate treat that will be one of your favorites too.
Eggplant Parmigiana
This is one of my very favorite Italian recipes. Eggplant is so hearty it is almost steak-like. The melding of the flavors of the marinara, cheeses and eggplant are outstanding. One recipe mentioned layering slices of zucchini in with the eggplant ! The dish is a perfect addition to a buffet table, excellent lunch entre, and…
Jock’s Chili’s Rellenos
Jock was looking for a relleno dish that he could make in individual servings. After much research and extensive experimentation he has perfected this method that he is now sharing with you. These not only look fantastic they taste as good as they look. His method doesn’t in anyway compromise the taste you are looking…
Crawfish Etoufee
Once again having J.D. around to get the crawfish is one of the first steps. If you find another source, lucky you!!! Anyway we had great fun making and eating this crawfish stew. The boys would catch crawfish in the Cedar River and bring them up to the house to shell them and eat them. …
Chipped Beef on Toast
There is a story to go with this recipe. It was one of Joe’s favorite weekend breakfasts, or Saturday lunch. He would request it often and almost as often make it himself. One weekend we had Jason’s children over and grandpa Joe fixed chipped beef on toast. ” What did you call this?”, they shouted! “This isn’t…
Chicken a la King
This is an old time family meal. A simple rue, stirred around pepper and mushrooms and chicken and poured over biscuits or toast. It’s easy, a good use of leftover chicken, or a cooked chicken from the deli, and it will warm your heart for sure. Print Recipe Chicken a la King Prep Time 30 minutes…
Lemon Bars
I can’t bake these Lemon Bars without thinking of my dear friends Clint and Jeannie Lemmon. They were a breath of fresh air, as are these bars. If you want light and sweet and fresh bake a pan of lemon bars and share them with someone. (or not!) Print Recipe Lemon Bars Prep Time 15…
Apricot-Pistachio Biscotti
If you have biscotti lovers in you group you’ve hit the right spot. These are easy to bake, good to eat, and can be packaged up in individual bags of four to six toasts each and given to friends. They can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week so once again…
Butternut Squash or Broccoli Soup
So here’s a two for the price of one! Your choice of butternut squash or broccoli soup. Either soup will fit well in the bowl with the Red Pepper soup found on the blog. The presentation is fun. However, either of these soups will stand just as well on their own or in a Print…
Beer Batter Vegetables
This recipe was given to us by one of our dearest friends, Susan Standish. Just like her, you can always count on it to be one of your favorites!!! I know we are trying to avoid fatty, fried, foods but there are times when you just need to let your hair down and enjoy your…
