When mixed, pour half of mixture over tenderloin. Place in oven for 15 minutes. Add desired amount of potatoes and carrots to mixing bowl and toss to coat.

“Our Christmas festivities rarely include fowl, no birds land on our table. I guess you could say we’re more of a “cows and sows” family. Here’s one of my comfort food favorites that’s great as a butcher block feast or toss it on a lovely platter with a few sprigs of parsley. No matter the presentation, it’s always a crowd-pleaser.”

Everyone needs a room with a view that makes their heart happy. My honest favorite panorama would be either the mountains or the ocean. I have yet to convince my hubby to make permanent moves to either, although he does enjoy the visits as much as I do.
The location of our house on our ranch does not provide the expansive field of vision of our land that I would enjoy. So, I have created a room decorated and furnished in a way that gives me smiles, giggles, and a wonderful peace-filled feeling when I am hanging out in it. I am in that place right now writing this column. I am in a lounging position with my computer in my lap on the chaise that was once my sweet mama’s. I had it reupholstered this year to give it a fresh look.

Local celebrity dancers of the greater Gainesville area brought the house down recently at the second annual “Dancing With Our Stars” contest in Lindsay. The event raised more than $200,000 as the sponsored dance teams did their best to take home the grand prize.
The money raised will go to the “Heart of NTMC” Campaign for the purchase of a cardiac capable CT machine for the Gainesville hospital. Rodolfo “Rudy” Martinez and Sherry Sherriden took home the Mirror Ball Trophy.
