Alright -it was a busy weekend at the Smith household in terms of cooking. I am in a desperate bid to catch up to little sis who has become a cooking machine. I think that the only thing that might be helping me out here is the fact that Sandy will be out of town and/or have visitors over the next couple of weekends!
First, Saturday night was the pineapple upside down cake - I have no picture as I made it on a whim (it wasn't even on our list of things to make yet!) but I REALLY wanted it. It turned out nice - good with ice cream. I was missing the red maraschino cherries but who really needs the carcinogenic FD&C red?
Sunday I was going to make (wait, I know this sounds familiar already) the lazy man's perogies but for some reason (likely Sandy's review) I am non-plussed about making them -PLUS they are not really LAZY as you have to cook lasagna noodles, peel potatoes and mash and cook them...so I just settled on perogies (bought, ssshh! don't tell mom) and the lima bean and sausage casserole.
Loved it - just like I remembered it. Used garlic deer sausage that I had in the freezer- turned out great. Really easy to make and an excellent complement to perogies - lazy or otherwise.

I can't wait to try it! Will do that this week as we have a hankering for perogies. I think it is all this rain that is making us yearn for some comfort food. Cute snowman by the way. Dafodils are out here but they aren't getting any sun.
I am making the mashed potato cheese things this weekend. maybe even the spinach.....
The potato cakes were v. yummy! I will do the creamed spinach when we are back from vacation. I was thinking we should do mac n' cheese next...
