Classic Buttermilk Waffles…with Cheese

February 28, 2008

Ok, don’t freak out about the cheese part…I’ll explain in a minute. But first let me say this is my all-time favorite, tried-and-true recipe for waffles.

Fabulous BBQ Ribs

February 26, 2008

A few weeks ago I raved about some ribs I had made that were delicious. I still adhere to my conviction that they were great, but the ribs I made a few days ago win the ultimate prize in tenderness and flavor. I am still craving them, days later. And, my kids, who normally spend [...]

I actually always pass up the sweet potatoes at Thanksgiving and never buy them [...]

My aunt and her friend have been experimenting with recipes and methods to recreate this bread and she sent me the recipe this week. It did not disappoint. It was fabulously delicious warm from the oven and has [...]
