Bits and Bobs...

I am having a hard time focusing on getting my posts together.
I start on one subject
and before I can get it all going along the same way,
something else pops in my mind.
When I go thru these times,
I  resort back to
BITS and BOBS...
less stress..
not a real story going on...
a good way to use some photos...
 ♥ ♥ ♥


Oh, Honey...
this is the BEST recipe I've ever had for this dish.
 I made this for our home fellowship dinner and 
the pan was licked clean.
It has Mexican Velveeta Cheese which carries it over the moon. 
I am sure, if you'd like,
you could just add this special cheese to YOUR recipe. 
************
 OR....
Baked chicken, deboned and skinned...
Saute and dice. 1 onion, bell pepper and 6 ribs of celery in 1 stick butter
Add 1 lb mexican velvetta cheese, can cream of mushroom soup, 1 can rotel, 1 can stewed tomatoes, get all blended together and cheese melted. Then add the chicken
I used about 3/4th of a large package of THIN spaghetti



Cute I LOVE PIE napkins from my girl, Stacy...
a great Cherry Pie...
and a new tea towel... 



I put together some 
BLACK PEPPER CORNBREAD
BOY...it was so good...
just your recipe of cornbread, a little cheese and whatever else you might want..
and lots of black pepper...


FEBRUARY 1, 2017
was such a gorgeous day...
no wind...
plenty of sunshine...
low 60's...
a perfect way to start the month of February off.


Such pretty weather, we took a short day trip...
The sky was so pretty and blue..


 We saw a small herd of deer...
they watched every move we made...


 a beautiful lake with the bluest water I've ever seen..


LAKE ALLEN HENRY
right out of POST, TEXAS...



 Coming home, we stopped for a 
DAIRY QUEEN
ice cream cone...

Well....I always get a cone
but Mr. Sweet likes their
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Blizzard...

Then he can't eat it and drive,
so we have to stop at a roadside park
until he eats it all and then...

we are on our way home.

It was a really nice outing...
we enjoyed our day.



 OOO........
and.......

  1. I can see why it's hard to focus lately but these are wonderful ramblings. The black pepper corn bread sounds really terrific and I love your black and whites. I don't see you do a lot of those -- they're very striking. I hope to see more!

  4. How many recipe books do you have???
    I made a delicious pasta, broccoli cheese a few days ago.
    I stay away from the processed cheese . . .
    Looks good though!

  8. Mexican Velveeta Cheese? I'm pretty sure we don't have that in Canada. I'll have to check next time I'm at the grocery store. We are so deprived up here, LOL!

  13. Enjoyed your post on 'Bits and Bobs' and glad that you and Mr. Sweet made time to go for that beautiful drive. We have not done that in a very long time. Need to find a less traveled old back road and just drive it and see where it takes us ... just because.
    Hugs,
    Audrey Z.

  16. BJ, I've almost forgotten how to post a comment on blogs! But just wanted you to know I love "SASS" also. I am a sassy chick and always have been. Some people don't "get" me but those who do love me. I cannot understand why so many people love me. Truly! I'm as close to "obnoxious" as you can get without having someone shooting me!

    I'd love to know how you made the chicken spag.

  28. I've added cheddar cheese to cornbread but never black pepper--will have to try that! I also have not seen Mexican Velveeta cheese before either, but then I never looked for it.I like to make taco pie and I bet that cheese would taste good in it. Gla dyou and Mr. Sweet were able to have a nice drive and ice cream treat!

  29. Thinking about you and praying for you. It all looks delicious with your Bits and Bobs.

  30. MMm that icecream looks so nice.I could almost taste it. I love going on little trips like that too. I think your spaggetti is a must try all cheesy and sticky.

  32. So many good ideas! I loved seeing all the little things that have made up your life. Mama passed away last week. Thank you for being so kind to her. I am just so sad

  33. Oh my, that spaghetti recipe has my mouth watering just looking at it! Thanks for the recipe :)
    I love Jiffy corn bread mix. Earl and I actually spent this weekend in the little town where it is made, Chelsea, Michigan. I'm a bit surprised that you use it, it's a sweet cornbread, which I LOVE but I'm a northern girl and I always heard the south likes their cornbread with no sugar. It's mighty good stuff though!

Way too much spam and people commenting that are stealing my space to post nonsense so.....no comments allowed.
So sorry but I have no other choice.
I love my blogging friends and most of all my family but these spam prone people are so rude and selfish have made my blogging not nearly as much fun..
