Country Living

You just never know what I’ll be up to around here. I could be quilting one day and building a barn the next. I just love living on our 10 acres with our heapin’ mess of critters.

Down Home Cooking

Cooking is really the first social networking activity humans ever learned. I love simple, good tasting, home cooked food (if it’s healthy that’s a perk!). Pull up a stool to the counter and sip some coffee while we whip up some supper together.

Family Life

Family is what life is all about. No one is going to leave this earth and wish they had spent more time at work. Some simple things to enhance your family life. “Try it, you’ll like it.”

The Moxie Mom

One of the joys of my life is getting to be a stay-at-home mom. I am so blessed to have a husband who supports me in this endeavor of raising our children. We have fun with homeschooling, 4-H, church, our farm/ranch/zoo and love living in Texas.

WordPress

My favorite blogging platform is WordPress.org. There are just so many possibilities. Want some “how-to” in layman’s terms? See some of my favorite tips, tweaks, plugins and themes that WordPress has to offer while avoiding some pitfalls.

ONE POTATO, TWO POTATO, THREE POTATO SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE

Submitted by Wendy Merritt on Saturday, 29 November 2008One Comment

Texas Holiday Cookbook by Dotty GriffithThis is THE most requested item at our family Thanksgiving. Without question! My mom has no idea where this recipe came from but I’m glad we have it. This is the best sweet potato casserole I have lived in many places, tasted many different U.S. region specialties but this one takes the cake. This recipe is nearly fool proof so give it a try. Your family will be amazed at your cooking prowess.

Some of my Thanksgiving/ Christmas recipes were tweaked from  Texas Holiday Cookbook by Dotty Griffith
