A little story about my dad...and a Happy Fathers Day to you men out there.

Growing up, my dad did more cooking than my mom did. He would go into the kitchen and take a little of this, and a little of that and make something delicious. You wouldn't think you would have all the ingredients for a meal, but he could whip something up! My grandma (his mother) was like that too. I always loved being at her house, because I knew she was always going to make me fried eggs, (sunny side up) toast, and some sort of meat almost every day for breakfast...and she wouldn't just hand us the plate...she would say "you want me to mash your eggs for you"...and of course, we did. It made her feel special to "mash" the eggs for us so we could sop up the yolks with our toast...lol. I don't think I ever "mash" my eggs that I don't think about my grandma. Those two people influenced me and my cooking more than anyone else in my life.

When I was young and first married I wanted my grandmas recipe for meatloaf. I asked my dad for it. I lived here and they still lived in Idaho. My daddy wrote it down for me on a little piece of notebook paper. He wrote all his little personal notes on it to tell me just how I was supposed to mix it and how to make the sauce to go on top...and at the top it says "MOMS MEATLOAF" and mailed it to me. That was over 20 years ago and I still have that little ripped out peice of notebook paper. It has yellowed, has spatters on it...but that is one of my most sentimental things I have. It was written by my daddy, and it was my grandmas recipe. I have it tucked in the back of one of my favorite cookbooks and from time to time I will take it out and think of them both and smile. They are both gone now. My grandma died when I had just had my oldest daughter and my daddy died when he was 52. I was 27.

Both of my parents died at a young age, and I really have had a hard time with Mothers Day and Fathers Day. My mom was 49, she had a heart attack. My dad was 52 and had a cerebral aneurysm. They missed out on my kids growing, neither of them got to meet my twins. So holidays are bittersweet for us. I know if my parents were around, they would both want to be a part of this. My dad especially. This would of been right up his alley. He would of been trying to tell me how to cook it HIS way. lol. With Fathers day coming up, I wanted to share a little about my dad. I miss him every day and wish I had had more time with him.

I think I will have to make some of my grandmas meatloaf soon!

Happy Fathers Day to all you men!

Menu for the week of June 13-17

This week is going to be a little different than most…as we won’t be doing a Monday thru Friday Menu…We have so many orders thru this week that that will be hard to stick to and we will be short handed on Thursday and Friday as we have some of our girls going out of town for the weekendJ

So instead, I am making a list of all we are cooking this week.  We are going to cook as much as we can every day and as many different dishes as we can every day so that when you all come in, you will have a selection to choose from.

If you have ordered from us before, you know we always cook more than what is on our menu, and I post it on facebook as we do it.  We are always getting calls for a lunch or dinner here or there, so we make extras and have in our cooler.  J

This week we are making:  Cranberry Pecan Chicken Salads (Fresh Daily) with butter croissants.  $4.75

Chicken Bacon Ranch Pasta Salads.  This is a delicious cold pasta salad with shredded chicken, crumbled bacon, diced tomatoes, diced cucumbers, shredded cheddar, and our own home made ranch dressing.

Poppy-Seed Chicken:  This is our best selling dish.  We have orders for this almost every day.  So therefore we make it almost every dayJ.

Chicken Spaghetti:  This is a cream based sauce with chunks of chicken breast, sauted onions and bell peppers give this a delicious flavor.

Chicken and Spinach Lasagna Rolls:  We are trying something new.  The chicken and spinach lasagna is becoming very popular…we are making these into rolls.  And topping with our home-made cream sauce. Yum.

Capellini Pasta with Sun Dried Tomatoes and Artichokes. This will be made on Thursday.  I asked on facebook and had several responses.:)  We will make our creamy parmesan and mushroom sauce to go with this.

And I’m sure much much more.  Please Check facebook for daily specials or call usJ 305-4845
