We’ve been enjoying a lot of the foods that go along with this season, hot teas and cocoa, soups, homemade breads and muffins, and I’ve been coming up with some interesting combinations as I work through my pantry. In one of my ‘what will I find in here today’ searches, I found a lonely cup or [...]

One of the things that can happen to me now and then when preparing food for groups is ending up with LOTS of veggies from the salad bar or veggie trays, and while we don’t mind munching on carrot and celery sticks from time to time, as well as other fresh veggies, there are times when [...] In yesterday’s post I offered the world’s easiest blueberry preservation technique- freezing. I also promised to provide an overview on how to make blueberry jam. I’m a gal of my word, so as promised, I put together a primer on making and canning blueberry jam. First, a couple words of caution:
This recipe is specifically for blueberries. [...] In tonight’s installment of “Food! It’s whats for dinner!” I wow the crowd by serving deja food. It was a long day, these food items are nearing the end of their usefulness and I cannot bear to waste food. So without further adieu I give you my leftover selection. See if you can figure out what [...] Remember my “in case of illness” clause in the ‘Food! It’s what’s for dinner!’ project? I’m exercising it. I was at the ER twice yesterday with my four-year-old, Leif. (Actually I was there with all five boys once and my husband was there with Leif alone once.) First he ran a temp of 104.9 so we [...] Has anyone else noticed that I’ve botched the dates on every single one of the ‘Food! It’s what’s for dinner!’ posts? Of course, I’ve gone back through and fixed them. I may be the only one who noticed them but my Grandmama taught me it was better to be honest and good than to not. That [...] Wow! You wouldn’t believe the weird stuff going on here today. Our power went out this morning around 10:30a.m. So, feeling mighty full of myself for thinking of such a fun and educational idea I got the kids through their schoolwork in record time, got everyone groomed and packed them all into the van to go [...]
While scrolling madly through the contacts on my cell phone desperately trying to find someone to talk to about my meal plans for the evening I had an epiphany…
Instead of pestering my mother, sisters, brothers, aunts, grandmothers, cousins, friends, and the UPS guy daily with detailed discussions of the evening’s dinner prep and plans I can pester everyone who comes to my site!
Here’s the plan. Every day -when I figure out what it is I’m doing for dinner- I’ll post details right here. It may be detailed enough to include recipes (if the boys are behaving) or just a blurb about what brand of hot dogs we’re having for dinner (if the boys are not.) If I’m feeling particularly ambitious, I’ll photograph the meals and post an update the next day. If I don’t get the recipes up and you want them just ask! We aim to please. Please aim.
I reserve the right to omit any dinners of which I am ashamed (for instance- three night in a row hot dog meals) or in case of illness (as in “sick of making dinner”.) I doooo have a reputation to preserve.
