Got the link to work. In process of making the peanut brittle. Thanks much.

My best place to go for the really best is what I make cuz I really heap on all the goodies I like. But otherwise in my hometown, Ocean Springs, MS I like to go to the Beau Rivage Casino where the burger is made to your liking(while you wait) with lots of toppings. Along with that, being it is a buffet type, you can pick up sides galore and really enjoy.

New Orleans may have their beignets but we have fantastic shrimp po-boys to gobble up here in our local eateries in Mississippi. Being Lent is just another reason to get a po-boy.

I would pick Michael Ciurello mainly cuz I like the way he puts a menu together. His is good cooking.

There is nothing better than a Chicago Italian beef sandwich. I will be heading to Chicago in a few weeks but to the South Suburbs. So, the only place I found a good Italian beef was in Tinley Park. This time I will pick up the sandwiches so I can see what else is on the menu. For now I will take a good beef sandwich with dippin' on the side.

Living in the South cornbread is a staple of any meal. I keep trying different recipes and enjoying each one. So far I like the one by Chef John of Food Wishes. Good eating for sure.

Guacomole for sure
7 layer dip with scoops
chicken tenders
chili with cheese
veggies with sour cream dip

Stir fry vegetables which usually has zucchini, carrots, onions and green beans. I like to have this as a side with baked chicken as well as other meats. So good!

I like her hints on baking a ham and making it more tasteful. I usually only get a small canned ham but it still needs some dressing up just like the big boys.

My favorite is ham and cheese on rye with some chips. Or I usually look for leftovers that need to be eaten.

A good bakery that makes good danish rolls and coffee cakes. I have lived here in the south for many years and all you can get is french bread and raised donuts. Imagine? I go crazy in Chicago with bakeries all over with anything you want.

Tato-Nuts in Ocean Springs, MS has the best donuts I have ever had. Don't even try to compare to Krispy Kreme, Dunkin Donuts or any others. It is a small one-owner shop but does a heck of a business. Get there early or just forget for another day.
