Recipes

I was born and raised in the Deep South and, to me, the South is synonymous with “comfort food.”  I love food that makes me feel warm and cozy.  Food that brings back fond childhood memories of walking into our kitchen at home or into my Pa and Mam-Maw’s kitchen.  The smell of something warm and inviting cooking on the stove or in the oven.  Food that just makes you happy when you eat it – you don’t know why, but it just does. 

Well, I don’t live in the South anymore but I still enjoy comfort food.  And, fortunately for me, I have come to learn that comfort food is a staple in the Midwest as well!!  I will share a few of my favorite recipes in the links below – food that makes me happy.  I would also love to hear your favorite recipes and include them here too (see the note below the recipe category links).  It will be our own little recipe swap!

Note:  If you would like to send me a recipe to consider including on the blog, please send it to me via e-mail at RushvilleMom@yahoo.com.  Please include the source of the recipe, if you know it.  For example, if it is from a particular cookbook or magazine, please let me know so I can cite the source.  I want to be sure to give proper credit when possible!  If you’re like me though, you probably have a collection of old recipes jotted down on recipe cards or scrap pieces of paper and have no clue where you got them.  (Or, you’ve adapted a recipe so much that it has truly become your own!)  That’s okay too!  Send ‘em over!
