Brownies or Blondies?

But do Blondies have more fun?!?

Salmon with Pasta

Not the best photos in the world.  What's funny and scary is that during this little photo set-up, my hair caught on fire while I was bent over moving the candle.  Be careful out there!  Luckily my husband was next to me and helped me quickly put it out.

"Orange Crush" Roll Cakes

Meatloaf

a good start!

This was made with ground beef and pork.  Served over turmeric rice. 

Not long ago I did an all-beef meatloaf.  Click here for it.

Egg Custard Weekend

Egg Custard Pie

I took a recipe belonging to my husband's cousin in Alabama, and decided to make it an "egg custard weekend."  I made this pie, and even had leftover custard to chill in a pitcher for drinking later.  The crust is also homemade.  I got the recipe from Sally's Baking Addiction.

Your custard pie, yeah, sweet and nice
When you cut it, mama, save me a slice
Your custard pie, I declare, it’s sweet and nice
I like your custard pie
When you cut it mama, mama please save me a slice oh

Good Luck

This is collards. or as my husband says, "Soul Food."  This dish is very popular in Thailand, even though it's not a New Year's Day dish.  I make it here in the US now.  Quite delicious.
