Banana Walnut Bread
This is our go-to recipe for moist, nutty banana bread. It's great sliced and spread with strawberry cream cheese.

Maid-Rites
Comfort food at its best, this ground beef mixture seasoned with chopped onion and beef bouillon is served on pillow-soft rolls. It's stick-to-your-ribs great food.

Mexican Street Corn Salad
Mexican Street Corn Salad is easy to make and is oh, so good! It shares the same ingredients with Esquites (Mexican Corn on the Cob).

Lox, Bagel and Cream Cheese

Rocks
A grand fruit cookie — some like it better than fruit cake. It is best to use just one-quarter or one-half the recipe, or it will fill the house!

Fried Cabbage
We consider fried cabbage with bacon and onion one of the great comfort foods.

Aplets & Cotlets
A favorite treat from the great Pacific Northwest! Aplets are apple, and Cotlets are apricot...your choice! They can also be made without the nuts, if desired.

Bourbon Balls
A favorite of ours at holiday time! These bourbon balls will keep for a long time, and they only get better with age.

Arizona Cheese Crisp
Cheese Crisps are unique to Arizona. This is probably one of the most-served appetizers in the state.
