Roger's View of the World, Love and Seafood Gumbo!

I always thought I knew what a bagel was until I lived back east. It was that experience working in New York City that gave me a real taste for them. Now-a-days, salads can go for upwards of $ 35, I hate to think what a nice bagel sandwich might cost? In any event , I love to make my own!
Whether it be onion or blueberry, nothing quite satisfies like a bagel!
bon appetite!
It is a risk to put out unfamiliar items to a novice public, but sometimes you get a few who are willing to try something new and you can see a new world opening up to them!
Okay, I have been fiddling with one of America’s favorite and sacred recipes… the Pumpkin Pie! Basically, I prefer more eggs and more cream and a slightly different blend of pumpkin style spices!

I understand the saying that ‘we only borrow our children’ better now that they are living their lives. However, when they swing by to say hello to the ol folks, it’s nice to throw them a little party. With Kristin home this weekend , we’ll be able to fix her all the things she enjoys: barbecued ribs, hamburgers, baked beans, chips and salsa, brownies, pies… and a few Greek alternatives at the party as well: baklava, moussaka, tiropetes, a Greek salad and dolmades. Have I missed anything? Probably!
Oh yes, the right beverages will be here too!
One of the favorite family favorites is making our own home cooked ribs … or bbq ribs if you prefer that term.
I don’t know which of my daughters love ribs the most, but it is always something they ask for when they touch home base. Kristin is flying by on her way back to more graduate school, but staying long enough to cook and bake with the ol folks.By the way, it takes a bit of doing to get the ribs right… but it is well worth the effort. Click on the picture above to see how we make them.
Bon Appetite
