I am very frugal, wasting food is one of my biggest pet peeves. How many peeves are we allowed? Is there a limit, cause I have several… you can get back to me on that one. So I had these hoagies that were on sale, and I told everyone…”make your sammichs with these, have fun, […]
Cole Slaw, you either love it or you hate it… I like it, so I guess I’m a wee bit different. I am not a fan of raw carrots. I can taste them when others say the can not.. soooo I changed it up a bit to suit my pickiness. Hubbyman, well he’ll eat any […]

I really wanted to name these sandwiches “Meatball Boats”, so I did…I have no idea why I thought of that. Maybe it is because I sit here and research recipes daily and I see so many names for so many of the same recipes. For example: Meatball Hoagies, Meatball Subs, Meatball Sandwiches, Meatball Heros, Meatball […]

I haven’t met an olive that I did’t like, I think I have covered my love for the, what I lovingly call, forbidden fruit. It comes from my mother, she would eat them all day everyday, as would my nanny. What can I say, we love em! It’s kinda a play on my olive cheese […]
I have a bumper sticker on my back glass that says, “Southern Girls like Sweet Tea and Sunshine” and that my friends is the truth! I have a small ( ok maybe not small) addiction to sweet tea. The hubbyman say’s I am a tea snob… maybe. It has to have a strong but not […]
