    Ice cream is a wonderful treat any time of the year. Summer is the perfect time for homemade ice cream. I have fond memories of ice cream suppers. Yes…ice cream for supper. We had these at the church. Everyone with an ice cream freezer would bring their best ice cream recipe. Of course, [...]

A little something for a summer wedding

By   /  June 24, 2012  /  In The Kitchen, IN THE KITCHEN WITH ELAINE  /  No Comments

    June has traditionally been a wedding month. That has changed for us in the flower business in the past few years. I don’t know if it is because it is to oppressively hot in the south in the summer or trends are changing. Spring and Fall are becoming more popular. I find this [...]

Brussels Sprouts with Lemon

By   /  June 17, 2012  /  In The Kitchen, IN THE KITCHEN WITH ELAINE  /  No Comments

      I’ve always thought Brussels sprouts were the cutest little vegetables. We’ve used them in flower arrangements, and it looked great. I’ve just never liked them. They have a bitterness. I don’t care where I had them, I just couldn’t eat them. There are not many vegetables I don’t like. I didn’t want [...]

    On a day when you have home chores, try this recipe for Braised Beef Short Ribs. It takes time if you cook on the top of the stove (you need to keep an eye on it) or you can put it in the crock pot. After this reduces, the meat is so tender [...]

      Summer heat is already here and summer vegetables will be coming in soon. Rick and I had been grabbing whatever for lunch and supper a few weeks ago. Thank goodness we were busy at the Flower Gazebo and meals were not on top of our list. We had brides and parties to [...]

A special treat for graduation time

By   /  May 19, 2012  /  In The Kitchen, IN THE KITCHEN WITH ELAINE  /  No Comments

    I can’t believe graduation time is here…high school and college. This year is flying by. We don’t have a graduate this year…both in college. The graduation invitations are coming in from friends and family. Of course, it’s hard to believe that any of them are old enough to be graduating. With graduation comes [...]

I [...]

Sunday Dinner

    Rick and I both grew up with big Sunday dinners. My Mama always had something (roast, ham, chicken or turkey) in the oven. When we got home from church, the fragrance was wonderful. Dinner was almost ready. She added sides, like rice, veggies and pear salad. Sunday dinner was always delicious. It seemed [...]
