South Dakota and All Her Charms
When you think of South Dakota, what is the first thing that comes to mind? For many, especially Americans, it’s Mount Rushmore.

Not long ago one cold winter’s day while putting together our weekly menu, I decided to put Jalapeno-Lime Glazed Drumsticks on the plan for the week.

Louisiana Chicken Quarters with Steamed Rice

Today is one of those pack as much activities as possible into a single day. It’s Saturday – and as with all our Saturdays, that means a morning trip to the market to pickup all the makings for this week’s planned meals.
