About me
I am a 67 year young granny who loves to cook. I have 5 great kids and 18 wonderful grand kids and one great grand kid who is a real doll. I am married to the greatest guy in the world and he makes life a dream. We have two silly little dogs that are clowns and think they are little people. They keep us young. We are both photography nuts. I am ameture, he is professional. My big thing is cooking. I once wrote a cook book for the home extension office using government surplus foods. It was a real chalenge and great fun. I still use some of those recipes and more than likely will be sharing some of them here as well as some of my other favorites.

I have a rescue JRT that saved my life. I was very depressed and this poor abused one year old doggie came into my life, beaten and terrified and I spent a whole year of cuddling before he would stop cowering from the presence of a man. Bless you dearie. You are a wonderful inspiration. Look foward to sharing many recipes with you dear. Hugs.


She is truly a sweetie! We are rescuers ourselves, having rescued 3 dogs and 3 cats over the years. Right now we have only one dog, a Border Collie we rescued from the Humane Society at 6 months and 3 cats: one came from British Columbia when we were returning from holidays, we found him in a cage in a barn at a dairy that sells ice cream (I went in for an ice cream cone and came out with a half-dead kitten!) He was truly 24 hours away from death and his tail was hanging by a thread of skin. He was probably 3 weeks old. We took him on our 12 hour journey home and nursed him back to health. He's now fat and ravenous all the time and a little devil! Our second cat came from the Humane Society as a friend for the devil and the third cat we took from our kids who got her when they weren't responsible enough to have her and she ended up with a broken leg and they were going to put her down. She's our $3,000.00 cat! But you can see the gratitude in her eyes every day that she is in a stable, loving home now! Nothing feels better than seeing that!


Hey RiverRat, thanks for the invite! And is that a Westie you're cuddlin' there?? X0


You are welcome. I love salads with pasta and tuna or salmon and I like to load them up with all kinds of stuff to see how it comes out. I am going to make your mom's salad this Saturday and I will let you know how it turns out.

Thanks,

Kath :}


Hello thanks for stopping by my page...yes you can use butter and chicken stock..however if you can ask your butcher he probably can get you the duck fat..very didderent taste.


Hi, thanks for the friend invite! Can't wait to try some of your recipes.Like you, I also have 2 doggie kids!! I tell my husband we are lucky they let us share "their" house! The little one is Gizmo, "little Moe " for short and then I have an American Eskimo, a perfect lady named Snickers!


Wow, you're really lucky to have a farmer's market. I just have a supermarket and it's not really well stocked. Sometimes I gotta go miles to look for a specific ingredient or to get some really good quality ones.


Yes, my tattoos are real, I'm having more work done on that one soon!!! Thanks for the comment about my recipes, I like them as well. :)

Chicken And Grape Salad
This is awesome, I do somethings similar with wraps for my sons lunches. He likes when I add a bit of curry powder to the mayo.

Corn Pudding
This sound interesting. I know what to do now if I have too many crackers in the house ;) Thanks for sharing

Baklava
Hi River.My husband loves this recipe,though I have never tried Baklava...and I have always been a little intimidated to make it.But your recipe sounds easy enough-will add it

Biscotti
I do like a good almond biscotti with my coffee. Sounds like a great recipe, thanks for sharing.

Corn Pudding
This is a dish my grandmother used to make for family dinners when I was growing up! Thanks so much for posting and bringing back some great memories.
