Happy Anniversary to Mike and his wife.I made cinnamon rolls and added in some leftover mashed potatoes and that really makes the sweet roll bread so soft.

I made a Lemon Chess pie today with a pie crust I had made and had been in the freezer a couple months.Wasn't sure how it would do, but it was fine.The pie is so good and lemony almost like a lemon curd.The pie crust was one I got off the net called Sylvia's perfect pie crust and Ree Drummond from The Pioneer Woman always uses it.I've never made a scone BakerAunt must give them a try someday.

Made Taco Salad today one of my husbands favorite- but I rolled mine in a tortilla wrap like a burrito.Hit the spot!

Hey ya'll we're fine,our power went out this morning at 6:20 a.m. and came back on at 5:00 p.m.We have been blessed as only a few limbs and debris in the yard.A lot of friends and family has trees on their homes and trees on their cars so we surely won't complain.Our road we live on had several trees across the road and volunteer firemen and people were out cutting them down and clearing the way.Nothing was open around us,no gas stations or restaurants but we were prepared for that.Buddy when the electric came back on I got a pot of coffee going.We had steady rain & winds were very scary....fierce,you could hear the trees cracking in the yard and woods near our house.I'm glad Irma's gone.Cwcdesign I pray you will find your place in good shape when you get back home.I was very proud of our area, I was told several places were giving food to the evacuees,and several restaurants fed the people that were parked in the parking lots free also.

Thanks all, we're hanging in everything so far is good.My husband about goes nuts listening to Jim Cantore of The Weather Channel being so dramatic,listening to ole Jim will make you think we're doomed.All we've gotten so far is rain and the storm part hasn't gotten to us yet.Praying power stays on tomorrow.Glad you have a place to go Cwcdesign.Hey Italian Cook anything you have to prepare counts as cooking to me too.I love simple.

Today was the first day it's been really cool here and we had chili.Everyone has been in a tizzy with preparing for the hurricane.We were suppose to get high winds and rain,praying we don't for the trees and limbs coming down on power lines.It's already fizzled out some and turned away from us.We are in South Ga.near Valdosta.

I'm baking cinnamon rolls tonight with cream cheese icing.

[Joan Simpson]

I made fresh creamed corn,fried okra and cubed pork.

[Joan Simpson]

I always use salted butter in all my baking and rarely omit the salt and I really can't tell any difference.I have used the unsalted a few times but since I use more salted that's what I buy.

[Joan Simpson]

I made fried rice with ham tonight and pear salad with mayonnaise and cheese on top.
