Beef and black bean chimichangs, some kind of cookies and definitely jambalaya in honor of the New Orleans Saints.

I'm going to try this tonight with some red cabbage and double smoked bacon. I think it will go great with pot roast and mashed potatoes.

It's wonderful, you've done a great job maximizing the space. Love the letter hooks, where are they from?

loudlyquiet - use it for stock when making rice, I bet it will be yummy.

Applesauce on the wood stove, spaghetti and meatballs, chicken stew (or so my husband says that's what he's going to make) red cabbage slaw, and some kind of cookies - but not quite sure yet. It's ...

Homemade pizza, hungarian goulash, bean soup (for the freezer) and a roast chicken. Now I'm thinking brussel sprouts, maybe a trip to the farmer's market while the snow is still light. It's time fo...

I pretty much do healthy from scratch food all year but Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without some pillsbury cinnamon rolls and fruit salad and lots of coffee. This year I think I'll make a strat...

warzone chic - perfect description. Could be the house I grew up in, in the ghetto - wouldn't wish that on anyone - why would someone choose this!

homemade cookies and sugared pecans, homemade dog biscuits for their pooches in little plastic bags tied with ribbons.

I don't know why everyone doesn't have one of these - I have them in all of my closets but my sister really needs one!

I usually plan ahead, a big meal or 2 on the weekend and morphed into other things during the week. Friday night is whatever I'm in the mood for. I usually have some meals in the freezer so if my w...

Going to Mom's, bringing about 1/3rd of the dinner - Sherry Vinegar dressing for the salad Leaf Crisps from Martha Stewart

I want this kitchen - it's my dream brought to life.

I just put a row of low bookshelves under my living room window, it looks much better than I would have expected and gives me some valuable space.

I have to disagree - my great aunts used to add rutabagas to the mashed potatoes on Thanksgiving and I dreaded going to their house, it's one of those awful childhood memories.

The first Christmas in my new house and both sides of the family were coming to dinner. I put the beef tenderloin in the fidge in the garage to free up space in the house. A little while later my h...

I'm on my second upright freezer, the first one was my grandmother's and when it died I bought another upright. I'm vertically challenged and always had a tough time reaching things in the bottom o...

I'm going out after work today to pick some fabri-tac up - I have some velvet curtains that need to be shortened or replaced and wasn't looking forward to sewing them. I think I'll try this first.

I have a Crate and Barrel table - don't know its name - it's oval and over 18 years old. We use it almost every night and it has held up really well. We only open it half way for the 2 of us but it...

We've got a new puppy and have had to replace our back door screen three times this past summer. Hubby and I are getting really good at doing it. Hopefully the puppy has broken the habit by now.
