Classic Bakery White Cake with Buttercream Frosting

Classic White Cake and Buttercream frosting , moist, tender bakery cake frosted with a delectable frosting that stands the test of time.  The perfect cake for all your celebrations!   White Cake is an American Classic. Growing up before bakeries were in grocery stores, I have memories of a particular bakery in our town.  They made the most delicious baked goods. In our family, you knew if you had a celebration, your cake would be coming from there.  This Classic White Cake reminds me of those from my childhood.

Creamy Jalapeno Corn Casserole

Creamy Jalapeno Corn Casserole , cream cheese, and whole kernel corn with a little kick from jalapenos make this an inviting casserole for any Thanksgiving meal. We pretty much have our menu down for Thanksgiving, and this Creamy Jalapeno Corn Casserole is one of the side dishes my daughter-in-law makes each year.  It is easy and quick, with a great combination of flavor and crunch from the jalapenos and corn.

Honey Pumpkin Cornbread

The sweet, earthy flavor of honey and pumpkin puree compliments the iconic Southern cornbread beautifully. HONEY PUMPKIN CORNBREAD This pumpkin cornbread, lightly sweetened with honey, is rich and moist and has plenty of pumpkin flavor.  It's the perfect accompaniment to any side dish for soups, stews, and chili, not to mention a must on your Thanksgiving table.    When October comes around, I start thinking of all the pumpkin recipes I can make.  Last year, I wanted to make Honey Pumpkin Cornbread but never got around to making it.  For me, making any kind of cornbread other than the traditional is stepping outside of the box, but I must say, it is absolutely delicious. I couldn't decide whether to go all from scratch or use a self-rising cornmeal mix. I always like to use a whole can of canned pumpkin puree. It seems that if I don't, the rest of what I don't use gets thrown away, and I can't stand to waste anything. This recipe is more like a sweet cake-like

Homemade Chicken & Rice Soup

Homemade Chicken & Rice Soup  reminds me of the days when I would open up a can of Campbell's Chicken and Rice Soup for a quick meal.  Yes, I like Campbell's soups and still eat them on occasion, but I love homemade soup.  The aroma it gives off while it is cooking is comforting in itself. I like to simmer up a big pot and freeze it in quart containers to have for lunch or a late supper. You can thaw it out in the microwave or set in the refrigerator the night before, and you can have it ready in as much time as it takes to open a can and cook it.

Baked Chicken and Dumplings

Baked Chicken and Dumplings has all the flavors of Homemade Chicken and Dumplings without rolling out the dumplings.  This casserole is truly magic dumplings! My husband loves my  Homemade Chicken and Dumpling recipe, and he was a little hesitant when I told him I was going to make Baked Chicken and Dumplings .  He could not imagine how they would turn out, and I must say I was a little intrigued too.  

Hobo Dinners

Hobo Dinners are a favorite around our house during the cooler months. I have meant to post this recipe, but it just seems other recipes get in front of it.  Around this time last year we were visiting our niece and she served these delicious bundles for dinner.  She is a wonderful cook and hostess.  I just loved sitting at her table and enjoying her taste in food.
