Happy Easter! and my 100th post!!!

Due to family sickness and a very busy weekend, we’re having a simplified Easter meal.

For the past couple years, we’ve gone to a local restaurant, but it’s just not the same as a good home cooked meal spent in a relaxed atmosphere with family.  Good times!

Here’s our tentative menu:

Brisket or Baked Ham
Yeast Rolls

Happy Easter to you and yours!

 

 

As I was checking out my WP Dashboard I noticed that this is my

100th post! 

In the near future, I hope to have a giveaway to celebrate this small milestone.  Stay tuned!

Brownies and Ice Cream

This is my daughter B’s creation and attempt at food photography.   She’s always photographing different dishes for my blog, so I thought I’d honor her with this post.  Great job, B – Thanks, Mom

Another Brownie Recipe

Honest, that’s the title of this recipe.  I considered calling it Easy One Bowl Brownies, but decided to go with what I wrote down on the card.  This is another from my vintage recipe collection.

This recipe is very forgiving and I have made substitutions in the past with great results.

Another Brownie Recipe
 
1 stick butter, melted ( I have used 1/2 cup oil or 1/2 cup applesauce)
5 T cocoa ( I used 2 squares unsweetened baking chocolate)
2 eggs
3/4 c flour
1 cup sugar (I added 1/2 cup brown sugar)
1/2 cup pecan pieces, optional

Mix all together.  Pour into 7 x11 dish for thicker brownies. 

Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes.
