There are no surprises when it comes to making the nostalgic and all time favorite Homemade Monkey Bread . A dough made from scratch, bite size pieces rolled in cinnamon sugar and baked in a caramel sauce. Amazing! I first started making Homemade Monkey Bread from scratch in the early 70's using the number one cookbook for newlyweds, the Better Homes and Garden Cookbook , printed in 1971.

Three Cheese French Bread
Three Cheese French Bread, family favorite! Sometimes a meal just seem lonely without some gooey crunchy french bread. There are several methods of making french bread into this wonderful bread frenzy. I usually use what I have on hand. Sometimes I just like a buttery garlic spread, but what I like most is to put this wonderful cheese mixture that I use in my Homemade Cheddar and Greyer Bread .
Valentine Treats! Marshmallow Pops
Valentine's Marshmallow Pops are the perfect treat to make for celebrating Love in the air! Each one can personalize their favorite candy. What do you do with your grandchildren for Valentine's ? In the last few years, one of my favorite things to do with the grandchildren around holidays or celebrations is to include them in making treats. Not only is it fun for them, but they also have the time of their life getting to use their creativity and imagination, not to say their appetites too -- for all those yummy ingredients. This year I wanted to do something that they could dip chocolate in since I had so much left over from Christmas. At first, I thought of strawberries (and they love those), then I thought about cake balls (and they love those), but I saw these strawberry marshmallows at Walmart and decided that they would be fun to dip too. To add little piazzas to them, I bought some Valentine's sprinkles, and as you can see in the picture also, the cocon
Tortilla Ham and Cheese Pinwheels

Delish! Texas Style BBQ Hot Wings
Texas Style BBQ Hot Wings are crispy, tender, spicy hot, sticky sweet and smothered with Baby Ray BBQ Sauce. Delish!

After they have baked, I toss them with a mixture of hot sauce and barbecue sauce. Not only do they call for a few ingredients, but also they are fast and easy to make. They are the perfect bite. In the beginning, you taste the tangy sweet and end up with that wonderful hot spicy flavor in the back of your mouth.

Ham Rolls are the perfect appetizer for any gathering you may have, or if you are like me, you may like to make them just for a snack. Every Thanksgiving, Christmas, or special occasion, you will probably see these on our table. The recipe came from my Mother. There are so many variations now. I have to say hands down, that the ham roll recipe that my mother handed down to me is still my favorite, and that is the one with just ham, cream cheese, and pickles.
Yummy! Old Fashioned Coconut Meringue Pie {Granny's Recipe}
Yummy! Old-fashioned Coconut Meringue Pie, just like Grandma used to make. Get the recipe for the perfect pie filling and a secret to keep the meringue from shrinking! Southern Coconut Meringue Pie Homemade Coconut Meringue Pie is a staple in the South. The pie filling is a rich, creamy custard loaded with sweetened coconut poured into a flaky, prebaked pie crust, then piled with a luscious cloud of meringue and sprinkled generously with sweetened coconut. I found out this morning that today is National Pie Day . Not knowing this yesterday, I made a Coconut Meringue Pie and an Old Fashioned Butterscotch Pie to take to our Life Group Meeting this evening. How cool is that!
