Sorry for your family's loss. It has to be comforting to know that you were there for her in the end.

Those peanut butter cookies look tempting BA!

We had leftover tortellini salad with tomatoes, spinach, mozzarella and blueberries. (Had to use them up).

I received a pampered chef trifle bowl a few years ago and I finally got to use it. My neighbor requested a strawberry trifle and I found the perfect recipe on Amanda's blog. I made the angel food cake (a mix) and used some of the frozen strawberries I had as well as fresh and substituted mascarpone cheese for the cream cheese and used real whipped cream instead of Cool Whip. It was a success. I'm glad I didn't donate the trifle bowl.

I'm exhausted just reading about your plantings! Wished I was your neighbor. I live in a 55+ community and I can only grow things in pots and there are rules for those also.

I've been to that place where I have bought those expensive "you only used once" ingredients and realized that it I will stay away from there.

I made a hearty salad with bagged greens, noodles, turkey, sugar snap peas, sliced red pepper, tomatoes, cran raisins, croutons from the cheesy semolina bread, feta cheese , chopped maple pecans and Good Seasons dressing. Phew!

I baked the three cheese semolina bread from KA. It was delicious although it didn't have a lot of big holes. Probably didn't proof long enough. I had a gift certificate from KA and the free shipping was just too tempting. Now I have semolina flour, almond flour, cocoa powder, cinnamon, expresso powder and lemon powder to find uses for.

I made Holy Yum chicken with maple syrup and Dijon mustard. I did add a little honey with the maple syrup per one person's suggestion. It will definitely be a repeat.

I made Mozzarella baked chicken. I think the onions which I sweated rather than fried were the star of the dish. I had to empty the refrigerator and cabinets and somehow I found the perfect recipe for what I had left.

This recipe looks good! I hesitate to use my slow cooker because even on low it cooks too fast. I would have to use my oven. Instead of upping the temperature requirements on slow cookers for health requirements and destroying their whole purpose why don’t they just put a “use at your own risk” warning? My old slow cookers worked fine and I never had any health issues using them.

I have pretzels and cheddar cheese wanting to be used. I found a recipe for chicken cutlets that uses honey mustard, crushed pretzels and cheddar cheese. Why not?

I bought a big bag of onions for the two of us…..probably on sale. So I caramelized a few in the oven and put them on top of my baked chicken thighs. I froze the rest. I was going to make French onion meatloaf for tonight but I may copy Joan and make soup instead. It’s cold here in Florida.

We had marinated pork tenderloin. My husband is a meat and potatoes man whom I should have converted . I refuse to pay the current beef prices so pork, shrimp and chicken have been my staples. I did see cod on sale at WinnDixie or Publix.TBD.

I boiled some TJ's red pepper soup and added meatballs and filled pasta pillows. A little spice here and a little spice there and ....not bad.
