A couple of months ago, I was over our friend Mary I’s house and we were talking about, of all things, food! I mentioned how I made gnocchi with the kids and we had a great time doing it as a family… and Mary thought “ooh, let’s have a get together and make gnocchi”. Well, we did it and it was an absolute success!

I want my babyback, babyback, babyback… ribs

I made ribs this week – they were so yummy!  Best part was the leftovers – let me tell you.

To start, I took babyback ribs (pork) and hit them with a rub.  I wrapped them in foil and stuck them in a bar-b-que stand thingy (do you like my technical lingo?).

I haven’t made sausage and peppers in forever… mainly because nobody will eat them but me!

So, I was at Fresh Acres (owned by Big Y) and saw some nice Chicken Sausage and some nice HOT Italian sausage and decided to make a small batch for myself.

Here’s something I whipped together tonight for dinner – MAN it was good! I have one of those cast iron skillets, I think I got it from BJ’s or Home Goods? That worked out great. I first made a batch of cornbread with the skillet and while it was still hot from the oven, I made this recipe! What makes it so darn good is that I used ONE pan for the entire meal.

This is an awesome, easy, delicious recipe! We’ve been making it for years and we just re-discovered it, yum. It’s so easy, that even Paula could make it – seriously, you could!

I don’t know who’s recipe it is, but my mother-in-law came up with this and we love it.
