Raspberry Heart Cake Recipe

Happy New Year. Time can go so fast. We are already in the New Year with new resolutions and goals. Please celebrate your life with great goals and communication with friends and family.

A TRUE SOUTHERN THANKSGIVING AND CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION INCLUDES FOOD AND "A TASTE OF SOUTHERN RECIPES."

Crisp Autumn Days

“A Thanksgiving Christmas”

Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays are upon us. In fact it’s time to crank up the mixer, the food processor and the oven. Crack the pecans, crack the fresh coconut and start up the cookie baking. Begin your prep work and have all the spices available. You’re at the Taste of Southern starting line and we want you to finish with room to breathe. Sing carols and enjoy advent. I truly hope you have a wonderful Christmas Holiday Season. Remember Jesus is the reason for the Christian Season. Blessings to all. Kay!

Coca-Glaze Ham

It really does give a good flavor to the glaze and it’s somewhat hard to describe. You get a little taste of the carbonated soda, along with the sugary taste of the glaze and the saltiness of the ham. I use just a bit of Apple Cider Vinegar for a very lite tartness as well. I think you’ll enjoy it if you decide to try it.
