    Our Children Were Born In The Time They Were Intended To Be In

    11/19 /2 Comments

    I am guilty! Guilty of doing something that I just need to stop doing! What is that you ask? Comparing my childhood to my kids! I am constantly wishing my child could grow up how I did and well, it is silly really. The times are so insanely different and he will not be able to experience the same things that I did because, the world has evolved. We don’t live in a world of firsts, at least like it was in the 80’s and 90’s. We had the first of so many things but he will not know the difference. Everything will seem like a first and wild new…

    Nana’s Cornbread Dressing

    11/08 /No Comments

    So this is a recipe passed down from my Nana and I have attempted to add directions as best as possible. As you can imagine Southern mama’s tend to cook everything by taste and look so it can be a challenge to get exact measurements. I made this last year for the first time and it was wonderful though a little dry. You will want your mixture wet but not swimming prior to baking. You will want to bake this at 350° for about 30-45 minutes checking frequently. This is a wonderful dish for Thanksgiving and I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
