Mayo
With the huge increase in the cost of Mayo.....I have decided to give homemade Mayo a try. I simply cannot pay ten dollars for a jar of Mayo!!!

Best of 2024
A few favorites from 2024!!
Back in the old days, Lori Stiles and I would get together and make candy. This recipe was from a Charlie Brown cookbook and it was called "Lucy's Lemon Lollipops". Below is a picture of how we made them before the days of sucker molds. The twins asked me if I could make some hard candy for Christmas this year. So, I did some experimenting to come up with a microwave version so I didn't have to stand at the stove stirring for 20 to 30 minutes. Here it is.....
My Sister, Janet sent me this recipe to make for our sibling reunion to celebrate Dad's 100th birthday. It has become a big favorite. I have made all the Jello flavors and they are all good!!!
I have been working on this recipe for some time now. I finally have it perfected!
Instant Pot Chicken and Rice Soup
We like soup in the winter. I needed something new. This is what I came up with.

Caramel Puff Corn
My friend Linda Murray makes this and shares it often. Katie makes a version of it that is really gooey and delicious. If you don't want to get your hands sticky this version is for you.

Taco Pasta Salad
Well it is garden club time again and so I needed to come up with a new recipe using tomatoes. I tried this out last week and Steve says it is a keeper. We even liked the leftovers, cold straight out of the refrigerator. Great on these hot summer days.
Cream Cheese Ice Cream
Justin makes this every year for the 4th of July! I made it this year too!! I adjusted the recipe to make 1 gallon. His version took 5 batches for 2 gallon of ice cream.
Blackberry Ice Cream
This is my version of Blackberry Ice Cream. There are so many blackberries out there and I needed another use for them!!
10 to 12 c. blackberries (pureed and strained = 4 c. puree)

Easter Bunny Cheeseball
I saw a ready made bunny shaped cheeseball and decided I could come up with something to mimic it. My normal recipe is very orange and I wanted my bunny to be white. This is what I did, it was a nice change and everyone liked it.
