Fruit Dip

Today I was in the mood for something sweet and while I was surfing Pinterest I came across this tasty treat.

For some strange reason I did not have any sour cream in my house but, I always have fresh home made yogurt so I used that instead.  

I cut up some grapes and bananas cause that is what I had in my kitchen.


Hubby is putting blueberries in his bowl and the rest of the fruit.  He is making happy noises.


Happy Eating.

Sunday Scones Raspberry and chocolate chips

Sunday was a nice day for me even waiting until 11:00 am to eat.  Blood draw at 10:30 am and that is forever in my world.

I put in a lettuce bed and covered that and the big garden with straw can not wait to have fresh veggies again.

Since we cooked large yesterday we are having leftovers of sorts.  The smoked mole chicken served with Mexican rice made by hubby and he own recipe.

I was feeling in the mood for something a bit sweet so I made scones with raspberries and chocolate chips.  The raspberries were picked from my yard and therefore are even better tasting.  This is my 'go-to' recipe for scones, I just add whatever flavor I am craving at the moment to the batter/dough and really how many scones recipes does a person need?? :)

I know it has been a long, long time since I have posted here.  Since we are getting close to summer, I tried out a new burger recipe.

I did add mushrooms into the mix, some bleu cheese and I did not have any marjoram in the house, which is rather strange so I added tarragon.



My lovely dear husband shaped the burgers and put them on the smoker for an hour.  Just enough time to make potato salad.  
We also butterflied a chicken and made some Mole sauce then put the partly cooked chicken into the sauce and finished cooking/smoking it.

Hubby agreed this is a do again, so this makes it a keeper!!!!


Happy Cooking!!!!!!!!!!!!
