It's Tuesday again already! Time for another wonderful addition to the Tuna Tuesday series where meat in a can is the star of the show! This week I am using a can of premium white crabmeat.

Traditional Southern Cornbread Dressing
Thanksgiving isn't Thanksgiving without Traditional Southern Cornbread Dressing. It just isn't. It's probably the dish that I look forward to the most. It's the one I spend the most time making sure is absolutely perfect, and it's the cheapest thing on the table. Now I know that some of you people out there call it "stuffing" and that you actually put it inside the bird. ...

The start of a new school year is upon us and I can't help but think back to when I first left home for college. I had packed everything I thought I needed. Little did I know that I had no idea. None whatsoever. Lucky for me, I had unknowingly been well-prepared. As a child, I was blessed. Blessed with wonderful, intelligent parents who surrounded me and my brother with ...

Spicy Shrimp Bisque in a Bread Bowl
SO, for many of you Lent is fast approaching. I don't know much about Lent except that it's mostly a Catholic thing, there is a lot of seafood involved, and some sort of vice is given up until Easter. I'm sure you can see I'm not exactly devout.

From the Depression to the Recession – Apple Oatmeal Bars
I have become quite fascinated recently with the Great Depression. More accurately, with the food of the Great Depression. It's amazing to me how a whole generation of women and men learned how to make everything last longer, go further, and feed everyone at the table. My great-grandmother lived during the depression. After my great-grandfather got laid off from a factory in ...
The Money is in the Mixes – Homemade Mixes
When I go shopping, I shop mostly for items that are versatile and can be used in a variety of different recipes for a variety of different dishes ( except for the training pants I still buy, which are only good for one thing). I also try to spend as little as possible while still being reasonably healthy. But like most people in the world I am also busy ( or lazy on occasion) ...
Love Me Tender – Herb Roasted Chicken and Vegetables

I have a small collection of herbs that I grow in sunny spots in my shady yard and I love the freshness that they add, especially rosemary. I love rosemary. If warm and comforting ...
Much Ado about Turkey
I love the holidays. I get all excited about lights and cookies and vast feasts that continue on for days and days. I also love the tradition that always comes along with the family and friends.

The evil "C" word – Casserole
When I first got married, I was all about cooking really great, really original food every single night. The very mention of casserole had me turning my nose up. I thought I was too good for casseroles I guess. Well, five years and two kids later, I LOVE casseroles. Not only are casseroles superb at cleaning out everything that is about to go bad in your fridge, but they are ...
