Comfort Food - How to make Homemade French Fries with Beef and BBQ

This has got to be the BEST dish I have had in the ENTIRE month of November! I love French Fries, especially homemade, (reminds me of my Grandma who made them for me when I was a child), I love meat, and I love BBQ sauce. What else could be better on a quiet Saturday evening? Thanks to my Hubby for cooking for me :-) Ingredients: 6 Potatoes 1 onion 1 garlic parsley Salt Pepper BBQ Sauce Rice Sour Cream (optional) Steps: 1. Cut up all your potatoes, onions, garlic, and parsley. 2. Heat up the oil, if you are anything like my Hubby, use a thermometer to check if it's at the right temperature. (bring oil to 350 degrees) 3. Make some rice on the side, if desired. We eat rice with pretty much everything in our home! 4. Season the meat with the parsley, garlic, onion, salt, pepper and cook until desired. 5. Get ready to eat, get messy, and have a fantastic time!

Comfort Food in my Cupboard

It may the pregnancy or just the fact that I have been feeling a little down, but I just needed some comfort food! That's when I got started looking in the cupboard and found a package of  Betty Crocker's Double Chocolate Chunk that I had bought on sale for $1 at Meijer about a month ago. I always like to get a few things like that to keep in my cupboard just in case 1) we have visitors, 2) need a quick dessert, 3) to take to someone else's house. I had the kind Double Chocolate Chunk, I poured in the mixing bowl. I looked at it (wish i had taken a picture of it!!!) and thought "hmmm, this needs more chocolate." So I added about a cup of Hershey's chocolate chips and followed the directions from the package. I had to add a bit extra water to count for the chocolate I added. This is what it looked before baking: before baking  after baking ready to eat! Another thing I have learned here in the States is to eat cookies with milk :-) Triple C...
