Question??
If a person makes a sausage cheese Mcmuffin at home, why doesn't it taste as good as McDonalds? Guess this would be relative, since some of you probably hate McDonalds. I buy the English muffins, I buy the sausage, I buy the cheese. I microwaved and toasted appropriately. It tasted good, but not...

I'd like to find a recipe that uses this mix for something other than cole slaw or slaw-type salad. Like, could it go in the crockpot with other...

In case you were wondering. . .
The ham turned out very well. It was "partially cooked, bone in," and no weight was given, but the instructions said to cook about 15-20 minutes for each pound. What the hay?? I stuck whole cloves into it, covered it with pineapple slices, then brown sugar, then added the pineapple juice mixed with...

What is Pleasoning?
Look closer; I didn't say pleasuring. Here's something those of you who like flavor, but need to reduce sodium, can track down. I don't know if you can find it in other parts of the country, but it is a seasoning product called Pleasoning, and it's worth looking for. It's a little different from...

Strolling
Somewhere I may have a few old recipes someone might want, but mostly I enjoy reading about other people's creations. Every now and then I remember an old dish or restaurant food, and dive into Google to find it. This is one I couldn't find. The Roy Rogers Restaurant in Oklahoma City, in the 1980s,...
