Every now and again I like to take a trip down memories lane and share a recipe we’ve shared in the past. For this very Mellow Monday in October, I thought it would be nice to share a recipe from six years ago along with a story older than that.

I'm a wife, mother, grandmother and avid home cook.I believe in eating healthy whenever possible, while still managing to indulge in life's pleasures.
A Mesquite Chicken Sunday
Don’t ask why. I have no idea but recently while making Fried Chicken in the oven, a song by one of my favorite Country performers kept running through my head. We’ve all done that I’m sure, have a thought and suddenly a song is playing in your head.

Paul Francis Daneo was born in northern Italy on January 3, 1694 to exemplary Catholic parents. This was during a time when many regarded Jesus as a great moral teacher, but not divine. Saint Paul was so moved by the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross, he dedicated his life to the Passion.

It never ceases to amaze me how Christ continued to guide the early church even after His death and resurrection. Saint Paul is instrumental in the writings of the New Testament. Saint Luke has an entire Gospel and yet he was not an Apostle.

Often when I sit down to write a new tribute to whatever National Day is on the calendar, I like to read the prior posts. It would be so boring to keep regurgitating the same introduction over and over. Guess what I discovered? Last year, for whatever reason, we didn’t bother with Pasta Day.

Today is National Liqueur Day. It’s been a while since we’ve celebrated Liqueur Day together. Last time around, we made Amaretto together, and then created a beautiful Amaretto Crème Brûlée.

Once upon a time, about a million years ago, my pantry was filled with Hamburger Helper, Tuna Helper and canned everything. It was both cheap and quick. Going to school, raising two small children and working full time, I used every shortcut I could find.

Today is the second Monday in October. We all know what that means, right? Here in America, we celebrate Christopher Columbus Day, which means mattress stores are having mega blow out sales.

Of all the miracles and apparitions surrounding Our Lady, my favorite has always been Our Lady of Fatima and in particular The Miracle of the Spinning Sun. But then again, I’m partial to all things Blessed Mother related. Call it a Catholic thing.

So glad football season is in full swing. I never, ever thought I’d be saying that. However; during Football Season I have time for myself. Hubby is glued to the TV. When his beloved Packers aren’t performing as he thinks they should, I wonder if I should increase his life insurance.

Hubby’s absolute favorite pizza on the planet has to be Sausage and Mushroom. He might eat other pizzas simply because we are sharing, but if he were to order an individual pizza, you can bet it’s sausage and mushroom.

As October approached, I found myself getting all excited. Autumn! Do you know where Hubby and I were on October 1? Working on our tans while lounging around the pool. It was another hundred degree day yet again!

Recently when Hubby and I were shopping for the week, we needed to get some thinly sliced smoke turkey for a recipe. We stopped at the deli counter – $12.99 a pound – are you kidding me?

Growing up, my Dad made the best tacos on the planet. He had a secret ingredient that has long since disappeared – Chorizo. My mother’s sister would send a tin of Chorizo from Spain every few months. I’ve tried over the years to find this same sausage, but no luck.

Today within the Church is the Memorial Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary. Catholics tend to use “feast” as a way to celebrate particular days throughout the year. In reality, there are Solemnities, Feast Days and Memorials.
