    • Can you cook?
      • Love Food Hate Waste


        I have cooked many German, Mexican-American, and Native American dishes throughout the years. More recently, I have become the queen of leftovers and side dishes.

        My husband cooks beer butt chicken, gourmet burgers, bbq ribs, smoked deer sausage, fried catfish, and hushpuppies. With fruits and vegetable I can put together a beautiful chicken salad. Cole slaw is great with the fish fry. Left over hamburger can be stretched into spaghetti and chili. I hate wasting food.


        Burrito Caserole was an extended family request, but when the kids started cooking for their own families it wasn't such a hit anymore. I have made many Indian Tacos through the years. I am sure when the grandsons reach my height of 5'1" I will start making them again. Kyler is already 6 years old and neck high. When it's just hubby and I, all that food gets eaten by yours truly. I love food but hate waste. My waist is asking for a little less indulgence.

    • "The House That Built Me"
      • Lesson Learned the Hard Way


        Stairway

        I was one hour late, and mom met me at the top of the steps. I'll never forget that old victorian home. I tried to go up the steep steps quietly, but to no avail. For being tardy, mom made me stand at their bedroom door all night long. I'm sure the matriarch of our household must have slept with one eye open the entire night. Looking back I see that mom was cruel to be kind. Several years later, I have had virtually no trouble dealing with authority, nor do I feel insecure in a leadership role myself. Thanks for tough love, mom.

    • What Was I Thinking?
      • Luke and Porky the Pig at Six Flags Chicago, IL

        What was I thinking-that I could have my bacon and sausage too? The waitress delivered the breakfast with both bacon and sausage. I said to the people at my table. There must be a mistake here. I didn't order both bacon and sausage. With that, they replied, "Oh yes you did." The waitress even asked you if you wanted both and you said yes.

    • How I'd Give Away $1 Million
      • Little Sisters of the Lamb, Kansas City, Kansas- their cause helping impoverished youth;helping youth break away from gang activity. It is important for me to assist all youth to earn a safe education with caring, compassionate, joyful, kind, understanding and competent teachers who never give up-"though wounded, they never stop teaching."

    • My Generation
      • PEACE

        My generation is known for nonviolent protests...speaking for those who have no voice. Has this trait ever applied to me? Not yet, but we're starting to unite.
