    “Ferocious About Getting the Job Done!” The Volunteers of America and Homeless Veterans

    June 27, 2011 /

    VoA Homeless Shelter in LansingWe drove down the street looking for the Volunteers of America (VoA) Michigan homeless shelter in Lansing. The GPS was right on the money but as I looked in the rear view mirror to change lanes and find a parking spot I had to change plans. Realizing I had an escort as the police officer pulled in behind me, my first thought was uh oh, what did I do? Then I saw the ambulance in front of the building we were looking for … Four hundred ambulance runs a year according to Dennis Neuner of VoA’s communications department. Deb and I had been on the road…

    Tasty Tuesday Peaches and Cream Pie OH MY!

    April 20, 2011 /

    Have company….Have desserts ….Have laughter, discussions and seconds. That is just what we did this weekend. Friends over, Easter candy out in dishes, Blackberry Grunt and Peaches and Cream Pie warm from the oven….OH MY! Somehow the clock propelled around it’s face faster than a comet across the sky. Seem great friends come with military families. With friends come some great recipes that were first tasted in Kadena, or Osan; perhaps Ramstein or Queensland. This peaches and cream pie hit my taste buds in Florida. Sunshine state lit up my curiosity and the ‘chef’ handed it over!Now it is yours to share at your table. Enjoy! Peaches and Cream Pie3/4…

    Child’s Play! Sprinkle Muffins

    February 17, 2011 /

    Tuesdays are one of my very favorite days. Esther and Jacob come to play with me. Drawers are opened, cabinets cleaned out, car ‘noise’ buzzes down the halls, Sesame Street is back on the TV after a 20+ year absence. All of those activities are out of my realm of influence. But let’s get to the kitchen! Let’s see what is cooking today!I asked Jacob… last week for Valentines’ Day we made a Rice Krispie heart. It was amazing. Almost as many sprinkles as marshmallows. But that was the beauty! It was a total Jacob creation.Today it will be muffins. I was thinking, apple or peach, or berry. NO… Sprinkle…

    Bar-B-Que Pork Loin

    June 22, 2010 /

    Tasty Tuesday: Bar-B-Que Pork with crispy peroghies as a side dish. This is zest, protein and comfort food! Bring on summer.We visited the folks in Florida. And as usual, when family comes together, there is always room for more with more than enough food to go around. This is especially true when my super cook of a mother in law is involved! Sweet and tender pork loin chops grilled to perfection by my super chef of a husband were complimented by crispy peroghies. If you have never had them… treat yourself. This is comfort food waiting to help you relax, savor and come away from the table feeling full! Peroghies…

    I asked the chef… and he answered!

    March 5, 2008 /

    Have you ever gone out to a wonderful restaurant and ordered something that was “oh so good!”? Are you the type that might just like to replicate a great taste? As you take a bite, do you wonder what is in this sauce, or what was the marinade? I do that . I love to cook. I love to read recipe books. I love to browse in Williams Sonoma stores. I am a great chef. Well, maybe not the last statement… but my family loves my cooking – NICE. That is a 5 star rating right there. Last weekend we went to Selfridge ANGB, located north of Detroit. There is…
