I’m in the process of making cookbooks for customers of some shared recipes and some of my own tried and true family favorites. I used to send in recipes to magazines (Southern Living, Taste of Home, Cooking Light, etc.) to try to win contest, or just be published. I used to have considerably more time on my hands. I am busier now, but still love to cook. Apparently, some of those recipes made it, and then trickled onto the web, because many of these are not put on these sites my me!
Here’s a list of the ones I found. I must have tried them all (if I sent them to the magazine).
- Baked Garlic Chicken - sent when I lived in Arkansas. I had A LOT of time on my hands then.
- Crab Au Gratin Spread
- Macaroni Tuna Casserole
- Antipasta
- Key Lime Daquiri Poundcake – I actually won a county fair contest with this recipe.

Everywhere I go in town, I am asked the same question: “How’s the market?”
The answer is pretty simple: Getting better. Do we have a ways to go? Yes.
According to this article: Finding Bottom, several things have to happen before the market fully recovers.
First, we must have a better employment rate. People obviously can’t buy homes when they don’t have jobs. In February, the Lincoln Times posted this article, but I’ve heard some success stories around the office for some families.
