WTF is a PDF & WTH is one in my PM!

Q: What is a PDF? This is not the first time I have been asked this question, really! As a long time computer user I sometimes assume everyone knows what I know. Like when I’m at a party and forget to introduce friends to each other… After all, If I know you and I know YOU, you must know each other! Before I typed this blog post, I googled “What is a PDF?” to see how many pages come up… it came…

Crib Notes - Setting Up Facebook For your Direct Marketing Business

Setting Up FacebookFor your Direct Marketing Business When I first signed up for my Pampered Chef Business I knew I would be using FaceBook for some on line parties. Then the Zombie Apocalypses of 2020 happened and I was using Facebook more than I imagined! Getting set up to do it was easy, I just need a business page and signed up for some marketing software. I use an app called CinchShare,…

Birria Tacos - Traditional meat stew red tacos, Wyoming style!

Jump to Recipe This will be adapted for game meat next time I cook it, and I will update this recipe. Please comment below and I will ping everyone back when I do so. One of my friends did a live video on FaceBook of her first attempt at these red tacos, I had not heard of Birria Tacos until then. They looked yummy and like something my husband would like so I decided to find a recipe and give…

A Chili Shopping Guide for the Chili Newbie My random Newbie picks When I was out shopping for dried chili I felt like I needed a chili shopping guide on my mobile device to look up info on chilies available at my local store. I had NO IDEA there were so many! My local grocery only had about 6 of these, and I lucked out and picked a good combo for my recipe BUT but now I am on a chili knowledge…

Chipolte Scalloped Sweet Potatoes - This is a super easy and very popular dish at pot lucks. It goes great with any dish. I would double or triple as needed for a crowd.

This recipe is super easy and goes GREAT with any meal, and is a crowd favorite at pot lucks. This recipe is sized for 4 small portions or 2 large portions. Double up for larger families.

Over the years I have cooked this in my Corning French White Covered Casserole dish. It does stick, and I spent much time scrubbing it clean. I have discovered the Enameled Cast Iron Baker cooks really evenly…

Fall Harvest Pickled Green Tomatoes

Please rate my recipe at bottom of this page.

When we first moved into our house over 20 years ago, I was a gardening newbie. I had tried a zucchini and pumpkins at the rental I lived before but other than that, nothing. My house has a south facing spot where i put a flower garden the first few years. In 2011 started experimenting with vegetables, I quickly found that tomatoes did very well in…

June 11 is German Chocolate Cake Day

When I was growing up my mom made birthdays extra special. My favorite cake was my mom’s home made German Chocolate Cake and she made it every year for my birthday. I remember her toiling over it in the kitchen at our house in Azusa, only to fully appreciate the work when I had my own kids.

I remember this…

Cream of Asparagus Soup

When I first signed up to be a Pampered Chef Consultant I had the opportunity to get the Deluxe Cooking Blender for 60% off. At first I thought “what would I doo with another blender”, I had just bought a new, non cooking, blender a year prior. Then decided that if I’m going to sell it I’m going to learn to use it. WOW! So…

COVID-19 is here and the world has gone mad! Ski Buds

One week ago today I was out skiing by myself, it was wet and snowing with a mean wind chill, the top of the mountain was full on winter, and conditions were dust-on-crust. I was doing laps on “R-Trail” and thinking of my missing ski buds. One was at home under self quarantine, she had just returned early from a Chamonix ski trip because…

January 11th is National Milk Day AND National Hot Toddy Day. Who says we can't celebrate both with one drink!! One of my favorite après-ski Hot Toddies is hot cocoa with a shot of Rumple Minze and fresh whipped cream!

January 11th is National Milk Day AND National Hot Toddy Day. Who says we can’t celebrate both with one drink!! One of my favorite après-ski Hot Toddies is hot cocoa with a shot of Rumple Minze and fresh whipped cream!

I keep a flask of Rumple Minze in my ski pack for such occasions BUT home made hot cocoa is the bomb! Below is the recipe I used since the 80’s, you can read more about it in

Wild Game Enchiladas - I've been making this dish for 30 years, it's a friend and family favorite. I have used moose, elk, and antelope.

I’ve been making this dish for 30 years, it’s a friend and family favorite. I have used moose, elk, and antelope. Substituting beef or pork would work, just make sure to cut away as much of the fat as you can before cooking.

When choosing a sauce, get one with lots of flavor, don’t use a mild sauce, the meat overpowers it and the dish is not as good. Las Palmas Medium Enchilada Sauce has…

Antelope Meatballs - This is a super easy and tasty recipe! The addition of pork tames the flavor of the antelope. Smoking it on the outdoor grill was key, antelope meatballs that I even loved.

Hunting is a part of my family’s life and life in Wyoming. We keep a freezer full of game meat to feed us all year long. My husband and son love antelope, I could take it or leave it. It is a little strong for my liking so I’m always looking for ways to fix it so I can enjoy dinner too.

This was sort of an accidental success. We thawed antelope burger for dinner and had a package of thawed…
