Everyday Food for Busy People
I love a good bowl of comfort food. Don’t you? This is adapted from a recipe in an Amish cookbook I have. The rich broth is full of chicken, carrots, celery and easy drop dumplings. This is the first time I’ve made drop dumplings. I usually roll and cut them. We enjoyed this version. I’ll be making it again.

Thanksgiving means pie. This apple pie fits right in with the required pumpkin and pecan pies. Using brown sugar instead of white makes the filling rich, dark and caramely.
The recipe comes from a small cookbook my Aunt Gerry put together years ago. I bet if she’d had computers and internet, she would have had a food blog! [Read more…] about Caramel Apple Pie

My friend, the Invisible Woman gave me the idea for this recipe. I’ll explain at the end of the post why I call her the Invisible Woman.
She said she made a cornbread crust and layered on sliced tomatoes and other veggies. Unfortunately, I didn’t have any tomatoes the night I decided to make this. I still want to try the veggie version, because I think it will be grand. Especially with garden fresh tomatoes.
This version is a fast way to make homemade pizza. It made the kids happy too.
