Here in North Carolina we had a snowstorm roll through. Around here that means making a bee line to the grocery store for bread and milk. It also means putting on a pot of pintos and making a pan of cornbread or biscuits...and yes, I did both. What else is there to do when you're snowed in but eat!! Well, you could also let your dogs play in the snow...and without further ado I give you Bruiser in "A Dog's Ice Capade"!!!
Chase and Rufus snuggle on the couch. As you can see t...

Okay…so here’s the scoop… I only have one glass loaf pan so I used 2 small disposable aluminum pans along with the glass. WRONG thing to do!!! The bread turned out great in the glass pan but not in the disposables. The disposables didn’t give the bottom a good crust…it was gooey and GREEN!!! It was edible but not very appealing. What happened?? Well, after Googling “Amish Bread turned green”, I found out I am not alone. I know the recipe said not to use aluminum to mix th...

My son Tre’ spent MLK Day giving a day of service to our local hospital where he regularly volunteers. He helped make treats for the patients and staff at the hospital along with others who gave their time. It was a great turn out and he thoroughly enjoyed himself. I am really proud that instead of sleeping in he chose to give some of his time to help make someone else feel special. And after his day of service his new glasses came in. He has never worn glasses before and on the ride home...

Inside this bag contains a secret bread starter that only the Amish claim to know how to make. This secret recipe is handed down from person to person 1 cup at a time. And if you give all of yours away you will have to travel to the Amish country to get them to make you some more.
Or you could just Google “Amish Friendship Bread” and start your own. Don’t you love how they put that on the recipe? Like we have time to hunt down an Amish woman and have her make us some starter.
Any...

Ok, I just got back from Harris Teeter and I am still on my coupon high!! The store was pretty full for 6:30 but I still found the shelves pretty well stocked. My only complaint is that they limit you to 20 coupons per day. Not that this has stopped me before. I have been know to go twice in one day to stock up. I have even dragged my 72 year old mother with me so she could use 20 coupons. I know..it's a disease...I am seeking help for it.
Here's the run down:
4 boxes Special K Bar...
