    EATING OUT – TEXAS ROADHOUSE

    One of our favorite places to go for dinner is Texas Roadhouse. Did you know you can download their app and within it you can put your name on the waiting list to save you some time when you arrive. Love that! I also love that they have excellent options on the WW plan, or if you are just trying to eat out and eat better. Here’s what I choose when we visit! Does that look like diet food? Y’all, this meal is so delicious and filling. Here’s what I get, and how I order it. Appetizer. My hubby loves to have an appetizer when he’s deciding on dinner and…

    FAKE OUT ARBY’S ROAST BEEF

    This one was fun and easy! My daughter told me about it and the hubby and I both enjoyed! Making a fake out Arby’s roast beef sandwich is easy!

You can dress that sandwich up however you like. Here’s what you do, bring that deli meat home and put it in a saucepan with 1…

    Maddie Greathouse’s Carmel Corn

    This recipe came from my Granny, she used to make it for every holiday. I remember there wasn’t a time during the holiday season that she didn’t have a canister of carmel corn in her kitchen. It was usually glass and full of that beautiful golden brown carmel corn. When I asked her to teach me how to make it, she told me she had gotten the recipe “years ago” from a woman in her ladies Bible study at church, her name was Maddie (pronounced mad-dee). This treat has been around as long as I can remember and it is a favorite of our family, I’m delighted to share it…

    CINNAMON CANDY APPLES

    Guess what my momma says she misses every fall? Cinnamon candy apples it would be. She says they are nostalgic for her and she doesn’t like the cherry candy apples, she wants cinnamon, just like when she was a kid. I suppose that leads us to where I am today, figuring out how to make cinnamon candy apples. I found a lot of directions for candy apples, but couldn’t find cinnamon. I was certain that red hots would give that flavor, but they are so hard to find. I finally found them on Amazon, but I had to buy a case, yes 12 boxes. So here’s the recipe I finally…
