About Me

My photo
My mom used to cook the most inexpensive meals on Thursdays. She called it, "Poor Thursday!" It was something she felt was important for us to know, in case we ever went through the depression like she did. Also, my grandmother on my fathers side was a great Irish cook! Pasties and kidney pies, and stories to boot! I personally feel that the younger generation is losing the art of cooking from scratch and using staples to generate the base of the meal! Just because I use the word cook doesn't mean that it takes long to get something on the table! With kids coming and going and parties and work schedules, we hardly have the time. But, look at the health of our families, and the nation!!! The lost of art of whipping up nutritious food isn't that hard to learn! In fact, you can be quite inventive! So, here it is. My recipe blog. For my children, my friends and all of you out there who care to try something hot and delicious! Mamma Mungo's Soup Kitchen! Open for business and serving Man Food Daily!!! LOL. That means tummy filling food! Comments and questions are welcome!

Unconditional Love on the 4th of July!

Though we miss all our friends and family on the West Coast, Vinny and I had a great time with some of our good friends that have also moved out here to Florida.  Through our friends, Bill and Dee Stockton, we have gained a whole new extended family here in the Tampa Bay Area.  Dee has a most wonderful family, who really know and practice the gift of spending time together. We are always invited to their get togethers and are always made to feel so welcome. 


If not for them, we would miss our family so much and would have to move back!!!  I think that their extended hand of friendship and family should be noted because it is a lost art with most people today! You don't often find people that just embrace new people with such enthusiasm and unconditional love. I say kudo's to our friends Bill and Dee who moved out here to Florida from Washington over a year ago, and also to Dee's family, Vickie and her husband Mike, Chuck and Virginia, and all those kids, and grandkids, and friends, for making it so pleasent to be in this part of the state! I Heart YOU!! Norine
