Talking About Sugar: Crystal Sugar



credit: Sam's Club here

Today I'm talking about granulated sugar.  In particular Crystal Granulated Sugar 50 Lbs.  We purchased from our local Sam's Club.  I like to buy in bulk because it saves time and money. You need space and containers to store when buying this way. The time is saved by not having to shop so often.  Stocking the Pantry with Staples is always a good thing.

Twice Baked Potatoes



I do like potatoes.  Probably a little too much.  Growing up mama cooked a lot of rice more than potatoes.  The Johnsons liked rice.  We had them though and come to think of it I loved them back then.  I would come home from school when mama was working and cook french fries.  I had to feed my hungry little brothers and sisters something.  No bagged snacks for us in those days.  Heck a sandwich and a can of soup, not to mention a tv dinner...those were treats for us.  We always had home cooked meals complete with garden fresh vegetables, homemade bread and deserts daily.  Sweet tea was our drink of choice along with the milk mama made us drink of course.  The tea came a little later.  It soon took over as our favorite drink of choice.  We walked down to Wilkes Country Store when we grew older to buy a soft drink, candy bar etc....Oh well that was my trip down memory lane....now to give you the recipe....kinda in a pinch of this way.....
