Wacky Cupcakes and Make Time for Change

It’s easy to take for granted what great mothers we have and not realize what challenges other parents face all around the world. My mom raised me in two relatively small Kansas towns, pretty insulated from poverty, crime and life-threatening diseases. My daughter is having an even better childhood. She’s... Continue reading

Oatmeal raisin cookies

There's no shortage of recipes for oatmeal raisin cookies and I can't honestly claim that my mom's recipe is the best. The main reasons that I love this recipe are because it only takes one cup of oatmeal and it satisfies my need for a good brown sugar-to-butter ratio. The... Continue reading

Michelle - Thanks for visiting my blog and commenting. It definitely reminded of something Ina might make for a weekend dinner. Hope you and enjoy it!

Commented Jan 7, 2011 on Picante corn casserole at Mom's recipes

Dionne - it's a very adaptable recipe that you can use with lots of different kinds of slow-cooking meats. Cooking with wine is one of my favorites too. Every time I do, my daughter walks into the kitchen and asks "what smells so good?" Christiane - let me know if you try this with ribs. I bet it would be great. It's been fun to get to know your blog and you!

Wine-braised brisket

Whenever I needed inspiration for roasts or tenderloins, I knew mom would have some great ideas. She would rattle off a list of ingredients and describe a method that she liked. In addition to her own creativity, she was a cookbook fanatic. She would often exclaim,"Oh, I saw the most... Continue reading

When I saw the title of your post, I had to click on it because I found a recipe with the same title on Kraft Foods but didn't get a chance to make it this holiday. It was baked in a Bundt pan though. Your photo certainly makes me want a slice of cake, or two!

Picante corn casserole

There are a few dishes in the stack of mom's recipes that I shuffle past because I haven't worked up the nerve to tackle them yet. I will make them, I promise. Well, maybe not her liver pate but I won't say never. This picante corn casserole does not intimidate... Continue reading

Stephanie, I'm glad to know you like the recipe and the mini loaves are great for sharing, or freeze 'em and pull out just what you need. Without glaze, it's good too.

Kahlua chocolate pie

I don't think mom thought of recipes as easy or difficult. What really counted was how much impact the dish would make when she served it. Now in my opinion, her Kahlua pie makes a good impression but it also makes lots of dirty bowls! My nephew and daughter had... Continue reading

Spinach stuffed chicken breasts

It was inevitable that one of mom's recipes would cause me to breakdown. Actually I thought it would be something she made that I used to request or a favorite holiday dish. So it was a surprise to find myself emotional over chicken breasts. The recipe's instruction threw me a... Continue reading
