Photos updated in 2016. Nearly everyone has their favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe. Whether it’s the go-to, no-failer on the back of the yellow Toll House bag, or the scribbled masterpiece hiding on a ripped up piece of paper in your grandmother’s recipe book… everyone’s got their own.

Ingredients: Directions: Strawberry Valentine Oreo Cookies Recipe from Robyn. Divinity Candy | Our Favorite Southern Candy. If you choose to make your own southern divinity candy, keep a few things in mind.

First, if it’s raining don’t try to make southern divinity. Next, you’ll need to cook the candy to the hard ball stage. Candy has reached the hard ball stage when it will hold its shape when dropped into a cup of cold water. After completion, the mixture hardens quickly, so you must work rapidly to drop the mixture onto waxed paper. Add a few drops of hot water if the mixture gets too thick before you are finished. Some folks will pour their divinity into a pan and let it harden before cutting, but no self-respecting Southerner would take that shortcut.

My friend nearly fell on the floor laughing at the thought of me not having chips and salsa in the house.

Chocolate and Peanut Butter Bugles. I have had a week…a week that I am going to be happy to see gone.

With this yucky week I learned a few life lessons: #1 If it looks crazy and talks crazy..well, it’s probably crazy. #2 The Rolo McFlurry is the perfect ice cream dessert. #3 Never underestimate power in numbers. And finally…the most important lesson I learned… It’s a biggie so listen up… Never EVER pose in a picture with you chin resting on your fist. Pause and let that sink in. Chins and fists should never meet unless you are Rocky Balboa trying to down Ivan Drago. I see people posing like this on a fairly regular basis and I can’t help but wonder why they are doing it… Like maybe their head is so heavy that they have to hold it up with their fist?

Or thy are so bored with someone trying to take their picture (ho-hum) that they need to rest their busy chin.? Or maybe they just ate a bunch of beef jerky and their chin is tired from all the chewing? Either way I don’t trust it…NOT AT ALL. Let’s be frank…your fist is hiding nothing. California Sandwich. Tomato sandwiches have owned me this summer. It started with my mother-in-law’s visit, just before our big Independence Day family reunion. The reunion stretches across two meals, so everyone brings enough food for lunch and dinner. There are two big picnic tables covered in aluminum containers piled high with barbecue, ribs, chicken wings, burgers, hot dogs and brats. But no matter what else people had on their plates this year, no one could resist grabbing one (or two or three) of Elaine’s tomato sandwiches. Crustless rounds of white bread slathered with Duke’s mayonnaise and filled with ruby red slices of summer-ripe tomatoes sprinkled with Jane’s Krazy Mixed-Up Salt.

Pretty much perfect. But that didn’t stop me from tinkering with them. First, I traded the white bread for whole grain. And then, it was pretty obvious that my classic Southern party sandwich had gone Californian. Feel free to put your own mark on this sandwich. Perfect for the last few weeks of summer.
