Nana's Carbonara


 Friends this recipe is one of my most favorite foods. It is one of those to taste and to sight recipes that is more a guideline than a true recipe and I hope I have explained it well on the recipe card. Carbonara is a dish my mom would make and I made for my children. I LOVE it. It is sentimental and wonderfully reminds me of my sweet beautiful mom and everything good about her! When I need to feel her close I can make this and remember her easier. She was a brillant cook! She did it all and all very well when it came to food! Carbonara is also one that is hard to photograph because its mostly white but I hope you will give this a try anyway. I think you will love it! Have a great day!

Delicious Fruit Salad

 Hi! This one is a winner! Its kinda like if a jello salad and a fruit salad had a baby and made this beautiful queen salad! It is easy and delish! My beautiful daughter Lindsay pointed me in this salads direction and she was right! This one is SO good! Its got oranges and pineapple with strawberries and bananas mixed together with a pie filling and jello too! YUM-O!! It would be a great winter dish when fruit is more expensive but it shouldnt be saved for winter though.  Its great year round.

Copycat Ruth's Chris Sweet Potato Casserole

Hey There!  I have some explaining to do.  I have had a tried and true sweet potato recipe that I have used  religiously  for years and years. People have asked me for the recipe multiple times and some of my kids still swear by this original recipe which involved the  traditional  marshmallows and caramel etc. It is good. Very good. Don't misunderstand, but when this new recipe came into my life I was instantly converted to it. I don't know if I have just grown up some and don't need the "candy" aspect of the caramely marshmallowy OG, or if this one just really suits my fancy more, but I LOVE the Ruth's Chris sweet potato recipe! I haven't had the  privilege  of going to Ruth's Chris steak house yet (although I would love to someday) so I am taking other peoples word for it as to how close it is to the true Ruth Chris sweet potatoes. If it is as close as they say, I will be ordering it when I can go. It is awesome! The only way I can imagine it any be
