    Kids Say The Darndest Things

    Back in 1968 when our son was 2, maybe less, he was usually sound asleep by the time it was dark, but one night we were walking to the car. Our son looked up at the moon with a shocked look on his face and said excitedly, "There's a banana in the sky."

    Goulash

    Like most families with lots of kids and not much money to feed them, my Mom made goulash often, and once I was married, I did too. Even when we were able to eat high off the hog, I still made it 'cause I love the stuff. Mom and I used spaghetti instead of macaroni, and added either red or...

    Fried Corn

    These days most fried corn recipes call for bacon, sometimes green pepper and onion, but this is how it was made back in the 40's through the 70's. For me, fried corn is a comfort food. Fried Corn 8 to 12 ears of fresh corn 2 tablespoons bacon grease plus 4 tablespoons butter OR 6 tablespoons...

    Tuna Noodle Casserole

    There are many versions of this recipe, this is the version I use. I have only made it with potato chips once. Instead of the chips, I crush a sleeve of saltine crackers, stir that into a stick of melted butter then sprinkle on top. Lots of crunch. Yummy. Tuna Noodle Casserole 1 cup dry elbow...

    Apple Coleslaw

    At family gatherings, we each bring our specialty dishes, but we would take turns making coleslaw. That is because none of us did it very well. So a few years ago when it was my turn, I searched the web for a recipe that everyone would love and found this gem. Ever since, I have been the...

    Popsicle
