Mexican Cornbread

I have a recipe for you today. Mexican Cornbread. We ate it a lot growing up. It was one of mom's go to meals. I was making it tonight and decided to take pictures so I could share it. There are two parts. 
You start off browning about a pound of hamburger meat (I used turkey this time). Drain any grease and add a can of Rotel. ( I used fire roasted tomatoes because that's all I had.) Add a little salt and pepper. 
The corn bread mix is 
1 1/2 cups of corn meal mix
1/2 cup of oil
1 cup milk
2 eggs
1 can creamed corn 
A few jalapeƱos 
Mix together. Should be the consistency of cake batter. 
Pour half of the corn bread mix into a greased pan. (I used a square pan this time but I usually use a rectangular one. It was very very close to overflowing today.) Anyways. Spread the meat mixture over the cornbread and then top it with cheese. (My favorite is a hot cheese.) Finally, pour the rest of the cornbread mix. Bake at 350 for 45 minutes. 
I didn't get a final picture. Oh well, you know what cornbread looks like when it's done. Nice and golden brown.

Ballyseede Castle

   Tralle was a good stopping point from Dingle to Doolin. When looking for places to stay I came across the Ballyseede Castle Hotel. It was a little pricey, but since we had such great deals on all of the other B&Bs, I splurged. It's one of the best known Castle Hotels in Ireland, has a history dating back to the 1590’s and sits on 30 acres of native woodlands. The castle has 23 en-suite bedrooms and 3 beautiful private rooms complimented by enchanting formal gardens. To read about the history of the castle click here. We stayed in the Coghill room.   We had a nice view of the gardens. Here are other pictures from inside the castle. We had to have our picture made with the knights.   We Googled and found a restaurant in town that was supposed to be delicious. It was nestled on the shore overlooking the bay. We arrived about 5:30 and watched the sunset. The food was fabulous, however the service was not. ...

Pool Time!

We spent the weekend at our friends' pool. We took the dogs with us Sunday so they could have a play date. M and B have to pit bulls that are so sweet. Nahla, the youngest one, loves to play! They were also puppy sitting the cutest beagle ever!  They absolutely love going places! They were waiting in the car while I was loading our things.  I've never been able to get Hatfield in the pool, but Lilly loves it. She started off just sitting on the steps and one day she just jumped in. So, now she jumps in every now and then to cool off. Kev mixed up refreshing peach mojitos (I guess I've had major peach craving lately) this weekend. I'd share the recipe but that's his job. I never really know what all goes into what I'm drinking. I just know it's delicious! 

Football Merchandise

It's football season and Walmart has all their Razorback merchandise out. I was browsing the aisle the other day and saw these. I immediately thought whiskey! A great way to sneak liquor into the stadium. Of course the back says intended for water only. Yeah right! No one looks at this and says water.
