Crispy Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars

Strength is the capacity to break a chocolate bar into four pieces with your bare hands - and then eat just one of the pieces.
~Judith Viorst

We enjoyed the beautiful fall week-end. Larry was off, and it was so nice just to have some time together, although we all had a bit of work to do. It was a fun and productive weekend! We had a few changes in our meal plan. Larry made "Larry Burgers" for us on Saturday. He made 8 burgers, so we're having the rest for supper tonight. We love chili burgers! So, my plans are to put together a pan of chili to make chili burgers tonight.

Because Larry offered to cook burgers for us, I didn't make Emily's Creamy Beef Spaghetti Skillet, but my friend, Donna, said she did and got good reviews from her family. I'll have to try this recipe another week! For more great recipes, be sure to visit Emily's Marvelous Recipes. Lots of great recipes there!

Donna also told me she had made a few batches of the Apple Muffins with Crumb Topping. She made some for her own family, a friend and for a school group. She said she had received several compliments on them. Donna is the type who not only thinks of others, but she puts actions to her thoughts and prayers. Last week, Brother Ken began a great sermon series on missions. We can do missions across the street, across the country, around the world, or just across the hall to our own dear family members. I encourage you to reach out to someone with the love of Christ through your kitchen this week!
Many blessings and happy cookin' ~ Connie

Condensed Cheddar Cheese Soup Substitute - Regular and Reduced-Fat Versions

Although very convenient, commercially prepared condensed soups are expensive and may contain additives and ingredients you'd prefer to skip. You can use these condensed soup substitutes in dishes instead of commercially prepared condensed soups. These homemade substitutes are very easy and quick to make! They taste much better, too. I have almost stopped purchasing the canned versions. Using heart-healthy butter spreads, low-fat or fat-free milk, and low-sodium broth allows you to make these recipes more healthful. You can customize with these simple recipes by adding other seasonings such as garlic powder, celery salt, onion powder, etc. Condensed Cream of Celery Soup Condensed Cream of Chicken Substitute Condensed Cream of Mushroom Substitute Condensed Cheddar Cheese Soup Substitute 3 tablespoons butter 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1 cup milk 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese salt, to taste Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat; add flour and whisk until s...

Georgia Cornbread Cake

I clipped this recipe several years ago from American Profile, which is a small magazine insert that come with our local newspaper, The Pontotoc Progress. It is yummy, yummy, yummy!  I love the story that accompanied the recipe and was delighted when a Google searched turned up the same article on the web! Larry took this to work, and he said it was a huge hit with everyone! Enjoy! Georgia Cornbread Cake Georgia Cornbread Cake   Recipe of Stella T.

Dough Burgers

  Dough Burgers Dough burgers are popular in our neck of the woods. Phillips Grocery in Oxford has received national acclaim for their top-secret-recipe dough burger. I ate two while I was staying at the hospital with my dad recently! It is the nearest restaurant!  When Larry and I were newlyweds and living in New Albany, we loved going to Latham’s for their yummy version of this delicious sandwich. Several other area cities also offer well-known versions of this unique burger. Tupelo’s Johnny’s Drive-In has the "Johnnieburger," and Corinth even has a festival named in honor of their dough burger, affectionately known as “The Slugburger.” Here in our own dear Pontotoc, we love the "Wonderburger" at Butcher Block! Dough burgers supposedly originated during the Great Depression. Adding flour was a great way to stretch hamburger meat. While possibly born out of necessity, it has remained a part of the Southern diet due to its delectable taste. I’ve eaten my share ...
