Good morning guys. Welcome back to Miz Judi’s Kitchen. Why don’t ya’ll come in and sit with us a while?
The weather’s begun to warm up again, lows in the mid-fifties at night. We’ve been wanting to set out some seeds, but with the nights being a little too cool for seedlings to germinate, we’ve waited. We didn’t want to start them in the house. But Tuesday afternoon Deb and I put out quite a bit of seeds. We dropped the curtains and we couldn’t believe how the greenhouse heated up. This is brand spankin new to us, so we’re kinda feeling things out, but still probably in too big a hurry! LOL! We set out 413 tomato sets. I know, that’s a lot I guess, it is to us, but we’ll use 40 or so ourselves. Shoot, right there alone means we’ll only have in the upper 300’s left! LOL! These we’ll give away to family and friends. We can’t wait to see the percentage of germination number one, we’re curious to see how well they grow off, and what varieties we prefer.

It’s overkill this time around, but we’re having a ball messin around with it so far. This is going to be a BIG boost for us nutritionally, and we can’t wait to see how the tomatoes will do year round. I keep a pretty sad face if tomato season goes out anymore! Well, that’s about all we’ve got goin on in the greenhouse right now…unless you want to hear about the 160 or so pepper plants we just seeded…well, do you?? LOL! We did plant that many peppers though. Tomorrow or Thursday…who knows?? Today we’re sharing three recipes that come from a church cookbook out of Apopka, where Mom and Dad live and have now for about 42 years. It’s called “Treasures and Pleasures,” and it has some very good recipes in it. I think today, let’s talk cakes… More...

‘Ridin Out The Recession With Dub and Deb in “Miz Judi’s Kitchen’!

Note to Readers: There are a few things that Dub doesn’t know but one thing he does know is that the word ‘Riding’ (as in Riding Out the Recession) is spelled with a ‘g’ at the end.  But Dub not only walks the walk, but speaks like he is: down home, true blue, and plain speakin’ country folk.

Dub and Deb are both native Floridians, live in Central Florida, and run a small business as well. They have five children, and seven grandchildren.

Both love to cook, love to laugh, grow a garden, and generally try to “aggravate” most anyone around them basically…all in good fun, of course!
