This is a great chili sauce for those special Coney Island style Chili Dogs. This recipe is slow cooked allowing the flavors to blend and the sauce to be smooth. The chili dog sauce can be frozen for about 3 months. This is a big plus giving an opportunity to always have on hand.

Hello everyone, I am so excited to be back on the screen porch with all of you today. The rain has finally stopped for a while and we have some sun shine to help dry things out.

Hope you are having fun planning your meal plan for the week!

  Hello everyone and welcome to Full Plate Thursday 749! We are finally starting to dry out just a bit here after 3 months of rain. I am so happy to be out on the main patio with you today.

I am looking forward to sharing what you bring to the party today so lets get this party started!

  The white flesh peach cobbler is a very special cobbler because of the white flesh peach. This peach compared to  the more popular yellow flesh peach is sweeter with less acidity. I am using a very old family recipe that gives this white flesh cobbler a very delicate flavor.

Hello everyone I am so happy to be with you to make our meal plan for this week. We are expecting some family out this weekend to celebrate my husband for Fathers Day.

This is a creamy spread that has a base of green olives with that brine of the olive. The olives are stuffed with pimentos that gives it a special flavor. We add a few spices and we have one of our favorites retro cheese spreads.
