Old Fashioned Mincemeat Gingerbread
Mincemeat gingerbread is a delightful combination of two holiday flavors that complement each other perfectly! OLD FASHIONED GINGERBREAD WITH A TWIST Gingerbread and mincemeat are classic holiday flavors that bring back childhood memories. My twin sister shared a recipe many years ago combining these two holiday classics. Old Fashioned Mincemeat Gingerbread is a perfect treat to keep on hand during the holidays. There are many variations of gingerbread, from dark, dense cakes made with molasses to light, delicate cakes made with brown sugar and ginger. This recipe is dark and gingery, with robust mincemeat flavors. Initially, the recipe was made using mincemeat packaged in a box, but they stopped selling it in boxes as the years went by.

Stuffed Round Steak
Stuffed Round Steak, boneless round steak rolled up with a breadcrumb mixture of herbs and seasonings. This dish is an incredibly flavorful main dish that can be served for any fancy dinner party or the humblest of guests. This is a great recipe to serve for Thanksgiving if you are not a fan of turkey! In 1981, I entered a cooking contest on a local TV show, P M Magazine, that came on each night after the evening news. As I am writing this blog post, I am thinking about the economy as it was in the 80's, as in comparison to today's economy. The unemployment rate was high, and jobs were also hard to find.

Jennifer's Signature Chocolate Cream Pie
Chocolate Cream Pie is a family favorite, creamy, dreamy delicious. Pies can be fun to make and such an accomplishment when finished. CHOCOLATE CREAM PIE This pie is simple to make with little fuss, yet has a rich and intense chocolate taste and is topped with sweetened whipped cream. When I was growing up, Chocolate Cream Pies were made for nearly every get-together. When it comes to making a delicious chocolate cream pie today, my daughter, Jennifer, is the one everyone asks to make it. My daughter always chooses chocolate cream pie as the first dessert when we go to Luby’s. This pie is a copycat of the Luby’s Cafeteria.

Fresh Apple Cake is made with three different variety of apples.

This Fresh Apple Cake screams fall to me. A friend of mine, Lynda Phillips, gave me this recipe as a newlywed in the early 70's. About the apple itself, you could say it has been around for a long time too, as far back as the beginning of time. Sometimes in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way. We feel as though we are worthless. But no matter what has happened or what will happen, we will never lose our value in God's eyes. To Him, dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased, we are still priceless to Him.
