I got to dislike kielbasa when we lived with Mom, she was always asking Daryl to cook it. Too much is too much already!

You can do it with smoked polish sausage as well. Farmer John makes an excellent one.

I make SOS with Cream of Celery soup.... Used to use Cream of Mushroom but they changed their recipe.... So I use Cream of Celery.... Gives more room for seasonings...

Oh and Toast sourdough bread Cut it into strips ans serve it with strips lining a bowl....

Never made it with chipped beef though only ground beef.... Lots of Salt Pepper and Garlick.... Sometimes I use Smoked paprika...

You have to be fart-free? That's impossible.

I just signed in & this post was the first post I saw. What a funny place to 'pop' in.

My mother used to make a recipe with purple cabbage that she said was a Pennsylvania Duetch recipe. She called it sweet and sour cabbage. She would cook the cabbage then add sugar, vinegar and flour. The end result was cabbage in this thick sauce. I can look up German Sweet and Sour cabbage and find that they add bacon and onion to it which she never did. I loved the stuff. It was great with pork chops..

I wish she had written down her recipes and not trusted them to her memory. 90% of them went when she got dementia. I managed to save her sour cream chocolate cake recipe and some of her canning recipes but the majority of them are gone.

Ladies, write down your recipes for your daughters. My mom was an excellent cook. When her mind went, so did her recipes because so many of them were lock in her head.

I'm so guilty of this. DD1 keeps telling me to write mine down, but I just sort of eyeball stuff & it changes slightly depending on whats in the house. Rushing to get them fed every night doesn't help either.

Thanks everyone for sharing your recipes with me!


I have all my recipes written down
In a notebook. I copied them for my son who asked for them. I sent them to hi email. Lol he said that way he can keep them.
My girls can cook better than me. Lol

My DD#1 is in the hospital. Since last Thursday they found a mass on her kidney. They are going to do a biopsy today and a bone scan with dye.
They may take her kidney out.
Her liver has been having trouble since last year. He said she has a fatty liver.
She still has the neck and upper back fractures. They are not healing.
