The Drinking Gourd


My Roane County-born Grandmother kept things — things that didn’t make sense to me as a child. A silver spoon, wire threaded with stacks of fancy buttons, a gourd with a hole cut in it’s side and a loop of twine sticking out the stem end, and more. Dad and Grandma in 1934. As I…

A Deliciously Easy Breakfast


I was getting into a breakfast rut. I know it’s the most important meal of the day, yada, yada, yada…but I was getting so bored! I’ve been eying Kelly in TX’s Apple Skillet, named by her daughter, since she posted the recipe two weeks ago. It doesn’t matter if it’s a Wednesday or a Saturday,…

Just Waiting to be Toasted

Fuitcake Cookies


My MIL made the only thing I actually liked using the old fashioned citron fruit mix – a very soft cookie. Not a bar, just a regular cookie. Not particularly spicy, and more sponge cake like than a normal cookie. For some reason, the citron tasted good in this particular cookie. Other than in this...

Sweet Pickled Crab Apples


When I was a kid, my aunt used to can crab apples that I loved. Never thought to ask her for the recipe when she was alive, but a friend has a crab apple tree so loaded with crab apples, that some of the branches are touching the ground. When she told me that I...
