    Whats on the plate 8/5/10?

    Not as pretty as yours, Cooksie, but this was absolutely delicious! Thank you for posting that recipe! I will be making this again. I also roasted some veggies and had some tomatoes and banana peppers on the side.

    That's my son at one of his ballgames. It turned out a little blurry, but I still love it. I think it shows his vibrance and his love for life. He's always running somewhere. :wub:

    Here is what we had. Nothing special, just spaghetti with homemade meatsauce. Served it up family style so our friends could help themselves.

    Why I can't have a garden...

    I don't know where the corn cob came from! I tried to have a tomato garden last year, but they got to them before they were ripe. Cute little things, but annoying!

    How do you make a crispy potato chip?

    How do you make a homemade potato chip crispy? I have tried and tried. No matter what: how thin I slice them, how hot the oil is, etc - they always end up soggy.

    Thanks! THe kids had a wonderful time, so that's all that matters. :) No, Cooksie, I didn't get my new camera before we left. That's why some of them are blurry. It finally died completely on the trip. Vera - I have had about that! Don't know how I'd like it though.

    Here are a few pics from our little mini trip to the Smokies. The hotel - not so good, as you will see. Lots of construction across the street and the pool view was that of a wooden fence with a staircase that led down to a stinky dumpster. But, the hotel was located beside a beautiful little...

    Sunday dinner 25 July

    Didn't have a chance to get red wine to make Coq Au Vin, but I had white wine, so it was chicken and mushrooms with veggies in a white wine sauce. Turned out pretty good. I served it with mashed potatoes and those zuchini hashbrowns that LT posted, only I used yellow squash instead. Those...

    New Camera?

    Well, it looks like I have to buy a new camera. You guys had some great advice about my TV situation, so I am coming back for more. :) I'm wanting to buy a DSLR. I have always had a Nikon 35mm, so I am used to the way they work, but I have been told good things about Olympus. Does anyone...

    What is this?

    Does anyone know what kind of bird this is? Every year, for 2 or 3 nights, they roost on my front porch. They always tuck into the corner face first, but this year, I was able to get a pic of it's face.

    Camera dying?

    I was taking some photos today and my camera kept locking up...would just freeze. Couldn't take a pic, couldn't turn it off, etc. Then the screen started getting little green pixels on it that kept growing until the entire thing was green. That can't be good right?

    Chicken Cakes

    My kids won't eat crab, so I make chicken cakes instead. I am not 100% certain of the measurements. I rarely measure ingredients, I usually just eyeball it. They should be pretty close though. 3 C. Chicken, shredded. 2 T. Unsalted Butter 1/2 C. Red Onion, diced 1/2 C. Celery, diced 1/2...

    Thanks Lee. I love the beach too! Maybe we are long lost sisters! I really love the beaches up your way...spent some time in Gloucester, Manchester-by-the-Sea and Rockport. I gotta tell ya, I left a little piece of heart up there. :flowers: These were taken in St. George Island in Florida...

    Here are a few that I like. I am in the process of having all my photographs transferred from film to disc so I can get them on the computer. That's were the ones that I am most proud of are.
