It has been quiet the challenge but I have decided to go with a recipe that no one else would ever have.... Papa's Specialty (formally know as Dad's Special - until 19 years ago when my daughter came into the world). 
When I was younger my brother and I were always busy in the evening between girl guides, bowling, baseball, hockey, boy scouts... I am sure you all understand.  We struggled to have a quick and easy meal that would fill us up and get us out the door.  My dad thought of a dish... now don't laugh.... 1 package of hamburger meat browned up, a can of cream corn and a can of brown beans.  Served with toast and maybe a salad but back then I didn't eat vegetables.  Believe it or not it actually tastes amazing... later my dad used mushrooms or hot sauce to change the flavor a bit but we have it now as a family quick meal.  One day my daughter will carry on the tradition to her children on those busy evenings.  Here is the LO I made with my dad's recipe in the LO
 that of course is a picture of my dad... I don't have any of the recipe sorry 
 close up shot of the cute little pieces I made with my cricut and new gypsy, the star came from Close to my heart cut outs

Hope you like it and have an opportunity to submit your LO.  Have a great day and sending you all hearts <3

  3. What a great way to keep a special memory of your youth! We make succotash with beans, corn, onion and beef or venison. It sounds very similar to yours:) Love the Salt and Pepper shakers:)

  4. What a tribute and a memory!! I could use this recipe!! How do you like your new Gypsy? I am embarrassed to say that I have had mine for 10 months and don't even have all the carts loaded. I did an update on the computer... and it took a while... so I got frustrated and went and crafted instead. It's on my "To do" list.
