Comfort Food

This time of year my family wants hearty comfort food, preferably with leftovers my husband can reheat for lunch! This past weekend I made homemade mac & cheese with bacon, and a chicken & spinach lasagna. During the week my time is more limited – so I’m trying my new hearty soups from Frontier Soups out of Illinois that we carry in the store.  For dinner tomorrow night we’re having California Gold Rush White Bean Chili ($6.95)  and Appalachian Trail Cornbread ($5.95) from Frontier. Tonight I’ll put the beans in cold water to soak overnight, and tomorrow I’ll throw everything into the oven at 200 degrees to slow cook all day. By the time I get home a little after 5:30 – the house will smell great, and I’ll quickly mix up the cornbread and dinner will be ready! Some lime wedges, grated cheese & sour cream for garnish – all set for a hungry family of 3 teenage boys & husband! Later in the week I’ll try a hearty Chicago Bistro French Onion Soup and then maybe the Florida Sunshine Red Pepper Corn Chowder (both $6.50). The chili & cornbread would be great for a football party!

Home trend: colorful rugs

Ornate Turkish and oriental-style rugs bore me. There, I said it. With busy designs, drab colors, and stuffy tassels, they feel completely out of place in my casual home. Bring on the color and bold designs!

After a long search, I found Company C Rugs—which we carry—and I knew I was IN LOVE! Bright colors and bold designs dominate on these delightful, yet tasteful rugs that invite people to linger just a little longer in the doorway.

Visit the store to see and touch samples; or order samples and rugs on-line: we can drop ship directly from the company. Enjoy!
