GEORGIA COOKING IN AN OKLAHOMA KITCHEN

A few of you moms have said, "Lynne we can't do organic and low sugar all the time, we need to break loose sometimes." Agreed!

If you're gonna get loose, do it with Trisha Yearwood's decadent GEORGIA COOKING IN AN OKLAHOMA KITCHEN. She even has his and hers variations! That will do a marriage good.

Here's a sample for the upcoming holiday season.

Green Punch - Serve this punch with Cheese Straws. It’s a Yearwood family tradition - Perfect to serve at Christmas parties because it’s a beautiful bright green and makes a pretty punch bowl.

Ingredients:
 2 13-ounce packets unsweetened lemon-lime soft drink mix, such as Kool-Aid,
2 cups sugar,
1 46-ounce can pineapple juice,
12 ounces frozen lemonade concentrate thawed, 32 ounces (1 quart) ginger ale. 
Put 2 quarts of water in a 1-gallon container. Add the drink mix and sugar and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Add the pineapple juice and lemonade concentrate and stir well. Just before serving, add the ginger ale. www.trishayearwood.com.
