    Homemade Gifts From Your Kitchen

    June 19, 2020

    There is something truly special about receiving a homemade gift. Creating something from scratch carries a fantastic feeling when presenting it to someone. Taking time, something we all treasure, to make a special gift for any occasion shows how much you care. Choosing something off a shelf is too easy and superficial, there is something extra special about giving and receiving a handmade present. Shopping for presents can be difficult, especially when you aren’t sure what to buy. Head to the mall, and you will find tons of gift ideas to choose from, but if you want to show someone that you care, nothing beats homemade, especially if you make…

    Brisket Tacos with JoAnn’s Food Bites Fresh Salsa

    July 18, 2019

    Being one-half of the professional barbecue competition team, Smokin J’s Barbeque, I must figure out how to use leftover pulled pork, barbecue chicken, and beef brisket, regularly. For our most recent competition, The South Carolina Festival of Discovery, we only had pulled pork and brisket leftover. GO TO SMOKIN J’S BARBEQUE COMPETITION TEAM Of course, I had my standard pork and baked potato immediately.  Adding cheese and butter, it is one of my favorite lunches. So, I created these brisket tacos, on the fly, incorporating my simple homemade salsa. Putting Garden Tomatoes to Good Use This year, my garden has been graciously supplying many tomatoes!

    Significant Health Benefits In Darker Tomatoes

    August 8, 2018

    This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of NatureSweet. All opinions are 100% mine. Do not be fooled when you see NatureSweet Eclipses tomatoes at your local supermarket. They may have a deeper color than a traditional red or green tomato, but that color packs a rich, bold flavor and is loaded with health benefits. Why I Eat Dark Tomatoes Tomatoes are a key component in a healthy human diet. Tomatoes are a major source of lycopene followed by beta–carotene, vitamin C, and vitamin E. During the ripening process, tomatoes go through a change in pigmentation. All tomatoes start green, then as lycopene accumulates in the skin surface…
