Tiny Tidbit for Today

I'm stuck on Tuna!
Add chopped celery to your Tuna Salad for a nutty taste and a crunchy texture!  No need to add egg...it doesn't add taste or texture
...save an egg!

Tiny Tidbit for Today


Add Pepper to your tuna fish and it will mask the 'fishy' taste!*

*Also, a lot of mayo makes it even better!

Tiny Tidbit for Today!

More about honey:


I have read that honey doesn't spoil. Do your research.  Here is a link that talks about that fact: Search io9


Reheat thick or crystallized honey in hot water not in a microwave. A microwave could burn it. It doesn't take long.  Practice being patient:)


If my honey is fresh, but still too thick to pour, I just run in under the hot water tap* for a few minutes.  It doesn't take long!

*tap...is that a Southern word for spigot or is spigot Southern for tap?

Our New Favorite Topper



We started with honey on our biscuits and toast.  






Then, the 'aha'!  Why not add a little or maybe a lot of cinnamon to the bear. You cannot beat it!  It is delicious!  Our biscuits* now taste like cinnamon rolls!

The down side?  You could eat it so often that you wear your taste buds out with the taste of it? Not!!!!

*Heads Up!  Pillsbury Southern Style Frozen Biscuits taste like homemade.

BAKED GRAPEFRUIT-Voted Best for 2013




I voted 'Baked Grapefruit' as my favorite new recipe for 2013.  I have had the recipe for years, but didn't try it until Christmas.  We had friends over for our traditional Waffles, Sausage, and Bacon Brunch.  I usually serve fresh grapefruit, but decided 'what the heck'...try something new. It sounded so easy so how could I lose?  Well, what if it was a flop??? It wasn't...it was a hit and became the Best of New Dish I tried in 2013!

Try it and see what you think---

Baked Grapefruit
1 Grapefruit cut in half
Ingredients per half:
1 tsp. butter
1 TBS brown sugar
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1 Maraschino cherry
Section each half
and loosen from rind...
I trim the bottom
so it will sit steady in the bowl...
Dot each half with
butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon.
Place in a baking dish.
I line mine with foil.


Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven
for 5 minutes, then broil until bubbly.
(I have used my standard oven and my toaster oven.
I prefer the standard oven. They heat better!)

Place in bowls and top with a cherry!

One the best inventions...
love my grapefruit spoons!

No, I didn't save you any!
