I made 8 batches of this fantastic Shoepeg Salsa for a dear friend's daughters wedding reception. It was really easy to make and very tasty so I thought I would share the recipe here.

Fabulous ZUCCHINI Bread
Well--it is that time of year again when zucchinis are plentiful! The one zucchini plant in my garden died this year, but I figured between my sisters, Mom and nieghbors I am sure to get plenty.

This ice cream is wonderful over brownies too!

These Shrimp Enchiladas are so yummy. I would have never expected shrimp and enchiladas to be such a good combination. In fact, I wouldn't have ever made these except that my sister-in-law, Melanie, posted this on her blog My Kitchen Cafe. And since I trust Melanie's taste so much, I gave it a shot.

Thai Chicken Peanut Noodles
My sister Brittany made me these amazing Thai Chicken Peanut Noodles and I LOVED them. I have been making them ever since. It is an easy quick recipe that tastes fantastic and everyone enjoys!
