"Boggie" Baking Tips and Recipes

"Boggie" got her name from her baby sister, Betty Jean. When Betty tried to pronounce "Margaret", it came out "Boggie", and the name stuck. All of "Boggie"'s sisters and brothers, nephews and nieces call her that to this day.

When she sets to cooking, she cooks up enough for Farouk's army, but it's always delicious.

Her column is updated every day or thereabouts, so check back to see what's doing in "Boggie"'s kitchen.

Do you have a recipe to share?

You can Write to Boggie!

Include your first initial and last name and put the word BAKING in the subject.

Now all you need to be set to get to cooking is to visit my Cooking Tips page, then a quick visit to my sister Betty Jean's pages for some Traditional Recipes, or, Vegetarian Recipes, or my neice Leigh's Low Fat Recipes.

AND, if you want to see how to grow all your own vegetables for the recipes and flowers for the table, visit Ernest's Gardening page. If you see Ernest, tell him supper will be ready soon and to get on back up here so he can get cleaned up.

Now remember to brush your teeth and say your prayers, and most important of all, remember:
