Welcome to Full Plate Thursday, 784! I am so happy to see you here today and sure you make into the cottage before the storm arrives. Yes the spring rains are starting and we really need the rain here. We have some great features from last weeks party that we hope you enjoy! I can't wait to see what you will be sharing with us today and thanks so much for coming to our party!

  I have always been a seasonal cook and enjoy the transitions of the seasons. We grow our own vegetables here at the cottage, which allows us to have either fresh, home canned or frozen vegetables available the year round. What we don't have available here, we usually find at one of our local farmers market. These are some of our favorites of the season, that perhaps will help you in making a choice of seasonal foods. 

Here we are sitting on the screen porch the first day of March with the temperatures in the 80's! We are truly enjoying this great welcome party for March! I am always excited to make the meal plans for March, it gives me a chance to visit my Irish heritage. We will be having some family favorites and looking forward to the amazing Irish food!

  This cheeseburger pie was on my dinner table many times when my kids were younger. It is a very flavorful  pie. It has very few ingredients and takes little time to prepare. We top it off with all the trimmings of a great burger. The recipe is still a family favorite, my Grandkids are now making the recipe for my Great Grandkids!

The flavor of this Coca Cola Pot Roast is worth the wait. The seasons so carefully blended and slow cooked make this a very special pot roast. The roast is so tender you won't need a knife to carve it. The vegetables are so tender and full of the flavors of this slow cooker full of goodness!

Welcome to our meal planning session, we are having a rain soaked weekend here in East Texas. What a great time to sip some coffee and warm up with some great recipes. It was warmer earlier in the week which enabled me to have fun with my Veggie  Pod. I planted 50 onion sets in the Pod and can't wait to watch them grow. I am so happy that you are here for our meal planning session today, its more fun when you are here.
