Last night I prepared Talapia for the second time. The first was a disaster (fortunately for me alone - it tasted dirty to me but I think the fish quality was not good). That was in Portland and now I'm living in Chicago - the Talapia is much better here! I searched here and heeded the advice...

It's been a long time since I've visited but cross country moves will do that to you! I've moved from Portland Oregon to Chicago! Prior to this move I'd never lived more than 10 miles from the Portland City limits - in fact less than 5 miles from my last address, talk about home grown! This has...

My friend is seeking a recipe, probably from the mid-west for a cake that contains canned fruit cocktail. It was a childhood favorite of hers and the only person who had the recipe or knew how to make it is no longer alive. TIA Linda

Green Giant sells several whole kernel types. I've discovered that their "Extra Sweet Niblets" have no sugar added. Other cans (sams brand) labeled sweet do have sugar added. This is just a heads up as I avoid sugar added canned vegetables when I can and this is great corn! Hugs

My son recently made a coconut cake that started with a white cake mix which was baked then punched with holes and a mixture of coconut milk and sweetened condensed milk was poured over the hot cake. The only recipes I can find on the web are then frosted with a mixture of coconut and Cool...

I received a beautiful All American Pressure Cooker for Christmas. I've wanted one for a looooong time. This is my first pressure cooker - the recipes in the instruction book seem dated - one calls for a stewing chicken - I've not seen those in years and years! Anybody got any yummy recipes...

After years of complaining that I always buy a turkey that is too big - and now that we only have 4 people eating dinner - DH requests two extra hindquarters be cooked! My thought is to just tuck them into the roaster along with the turkey....perhaps wrapping the edge of the thighs in foil to...

DH just got a new smoker - a Bradley and, quite frankly, if I were given to jealousy..... Anyway it has this wonderful automatic feed feature so you can leave it on it's own for 8 hours. It uses what they call "bisquetts" to make the smoke and they come in more different wood flavors than I...
