Creamy Skillet Corn {Granny's Recipe}

Creamy Skillet Corn , super simple to make with few ingredients and is a great side dish to take to any gathering using fresh corn cut off the cob that is creamy with surprising crispiness.

Fresh corn is always ready around the first of July here in Texas.

Peanut Butter Chip & Milk Chocolate Chip Cookies {Hannah's Favorite}

This last week was a busy one for me with having all of my grandchildren at my house off and on during the whole week.  On Saturday, two of my grandchildren and I, baked cookies all day.  I think when it was all said and done, we had baked eight dozen cookies.  These Peanut Butter and Milk Chocolate Chip Cookies were made by my 11 year old granddaughter, Hannah.  She not only worked hard at reading and making sure she got the recipe right, but making sure that each cookie was the same size. She did such a fantastic job.  Of all the cookies we made these were her favorite.  How can you go wrong....peanut butter and chocolate...yum.

Candied Jalapeno Mango Salsa

Our grill has been going non stop since the beginning of spring.  We have also been eating fresh vegetable and fruit that are so readily available at farmers markets and grocery stores this time of the year, like mangoes. 

Strawberry Shortcake Cookies

Pin It Seeing these cookies over at Bakergirl , I knew that it was only a matter of time before I would be making some.  These Strawberry Shortcake Cookies are the best of both worlds.  They have the lusciousness of Strawberry Shortcake and the tenderness of a cookie.  They could even pass for a scone in the right setting, such as serving them at a brunch.  I did agree that they need to be eaten in the same day.
