It’s the coldest it’s been all year, but I refuse to turn on the heat.  Had Tony still been alive the heat would have been on since about September 1 – even if we had day time temps in the 70s.  Right now the house is at 55 degrees, but I have a sweater on, fuzzy socks and a hot cup of coffee so I...

I’ve been so blessed...

Rudy’s Copycat BBQ Sauce Recipe This Rudy’s Copycat BBQ Sauce is thanks to my friend Katie at Chaos in the Kitchen – so good!   My husband and I never could agree on a BBQ sauce, until Rudy’s BBQ in Texas.  Sadly, we don’t live close to one, so we had to make our own, and this one is so close to the original!  ...
