I spent today cooking for my friends Patty and Raymond again. Patty gave me a copy of her cookbook called “Patty’s Cakes and Things” so that I could make some of her favorite foods for her. She requested salmon patties but the recipe said you could also make a salmon loaf so I opted for … Continue reading
Here is one of Bob’s all time favorites so I made it for Valentine’s Day dinner. It’s not hard to make, just a little time consuming but it’s really tasty in fact Bob has been known to sneak down in the middle of the night and eat it cold! This is another one of those … Continue reading
I made a big dinner for Valentine’s Day – Hearty Stuffed Shells (Bob’s favorite, will be the next post), Green Beans with Garlic Butter and Walnuts (everyone loves these, they are already on the blog) and this Triple Cheese Flatbread which I got in an email from Bisquick. It is pretty easy to make and … Continue reading

I got this recipe in an email from Betty Crocker, specifically Bisquick. I made a big pot of chili for dinner (Family Favorite Chili which is already on the blog) and these sounded like they would go well with chili. They would also go great with spaghetti and they would work well as an appetizer … Continue reading
