Crispy Peanut Butter Bon Bons
By Kelly Bogard The day I've been waiting for has arrived. My sweet Butters has finally discovered the joy of a peanut butter and jelly sandwich! This sweet, nutty spread played such a role in her daddy’s and my childhood. But I'm past my PB&J stage. I like to get right to [...]
Back to Basics: Salsa
By Kelly Bogard There's always a reason to celebrate. Birthdays. Promotions. Holidays. Food is always involved. You could say food is the life of our party. Most of the time, anyway. It's the center of get-togethers and celebrations at our house. I always have a few snacks on hand when family [...]
Strawberry Shortcake
By Kelly Bogard Mother Nature has a weird sense of humor. Just as I was getting ready for the warmer weather, the snow came. Big, white, fluffy flakes covered Waco and the TFB state office on Wednesday. The snow reminded me of whipped cream as it piled delicately on the ground. That, [...]

Loving your heart
By Jessica Domel February holds a special place in my heart. Not because of Valentine’s Day, but because of Heart Health Month. Heart disease runs in my family. And my father was just hospitalized for a heart-related issue. Sitting in the emergency room with him was a wake-up call for [...]
Buffalo Bites
By Kelly Bogard The 2014 football season officially ends this Sunday. The teams have been picked and the commercials are cued. Now it's time to pick out the food. There are all kinds of things to eat during a Super Bowl party like Fiesta Corn Dip or Triple Meat Pizza Bread. [...]
Sour Cream Coffee Cake
By Kelly Bogard Whether it's cold or warm, we all love a good meal. One that's tasty and light, but always filling. It's even better when preparations are quick and easy. Sweet aromas fill the air. And clean up is almost non-existent. This week's recipe is a little of all three and [...]
Tamale Pie
By Kelly Bogard Sometimes a cold and dreary day can spark genius. It happened while having lunch with several Texas Farm Bureau co-workers and talking about what types of food we like in the winter. Of course, as Texans, Tex-Mex was quite high on the list. As well as things [...]
