This is a busy Feast Day week, so I'm attempting to squeeze in a few special recipes -- mostly desserts. And lest you think that we eat all of these desserts at our house, I want you to know that the teachers Doug works with usually get the yummy leftovers.Last week, the Split Pea soup lunch became dinner, so I moved the Crock Pot Pork Roast to next Sunday.
I made tried some new recipes this week and after making the Poppy Seed cake on Friday, which was good, but not particularly inexpensive or easy, I realized that you may think that all of the recipes that I have provided links to are tried and true. So, I am color-coding my links, with a key at the bottom of my menu, so that you will know which are tried recipes and which are new to me.
