Pets of the Week

Pretty Cindy appears to be a heeler mix, approximately one year old. This poor girl was dumped at the shelter during the night a couple of weeks ago, so we know nothing about her history except that someone did not want her. She was very frightened, but once we sweet talked her and gave her yummy treats, she was happy to be given some love.

HB’s Homestyle Cooking

Welcome back to my kitchen y’all. I sure hope everyone is having a great week! Since the weather has been so pretty and nice most of this last week, I figured we needed to have a potluck/grill season recipe. We’ve been spending more and more time outside and with the daylight lasting longer we have been grilling more throughout the week. So, this week’s recipe is Heather’s Smoked Cheesy Taters. This is a huge hit at any family get together or potluck we take it to and there is never enough. I usually triple this recipe for large get togethers and it never goes to waste.
