Daddy too!

I haven't posted in a while. Not because I don't want to, I have just been busy. My camera also holds so many pictures that we just keep taking them. Anyhow, Father's Day is quickly approaching. So, to honor my favorite men... I thought I would write my food memories that I have of them. Honey, I love you! You are a great daddy! Our kids look up to you, and I love to see you with them.

Grandpa Rowe: Grapefruit and apples with salt
Grandpa Brownie: pumpkin pie with TONS of whipped cream
Dad: oatmeal, oatmeal cookies, black licorice
Frank: banana bread, turkey
Rocky: Mac and cheese, empanadas, elk, slushies/icees...
Rhet: red licorice
Reese: season salt
Jake: hash browns
Lance: mangos

Happy Father's Day! I love you all!

Mama's Gotta EAT!!!!

More often than not Rocky will smile, or tease me about how much I enjoy food. It's true! It is one of my joys in life. I love food! I love to eat! I love to cook and bake! I love to be served good food! I have many fond memories, and many of them have to do with food. I have several specific food memories. Most of my food memories have to do with my favorite people also. For example, whenever I make or eat broccoli salad, I think of my mother. So, in honor of my wonderful mom, and several wonderful moms out there; I thought I would share my memories of you and food.

Grandma Rowe: Blue cheese dressing
Grandma Olive: Sugar free fudge pops
Mom: Ham, broccoli salad,... this list could go on forever
Wendy: Coconut Muffins
Erica: Bean Dip
Lacey: Frog eyes
Lola: Chicken noodle soup
Jennifer: Chocolate mayo cake
Tracie: Tacos
Heidi: Turkey meatloaf
Jessica: Goulash
Shelly: Strawberry rhubarb cake

Megan: Hot tamales
Betsy: Scotcheroos
Anna: Otter pops
Stephanie: Fish tacos
Jan: Peaches
Kris: Bread
Gabrielle: Spaghetti Sauce

So, Mamas I want to wish you a very HAPPY MOTHER"S DAY! I love you all! I hope you are creating memories that will last. And I really hope you are being served something delicious. Let's EAT!!!
