Wow–these pictures are much bigger than I anticipated 
Okay–so having a par-tay? Get together, or just looking to make up some YUMMY homemade dip for veggies & crackers? This, my friend, is it. YUM.
Dill Dip–and it’s so easy. Ready? Gather:
1C Sour Cream
1C Mayo
2t Dill (adjust to your likin’–we add about 4t)
Mix and add Johnny’s Seasoning Salt–a few shakes will do (again to your preference) and if you don’t have Johnnys (I’m sorry…;) any seasoning salt will make do here…
Just mix, chill and refrigerate until ready to serve with veggies or any of your favorite cracker or chip.
Simple, easy…best of all, as my husband likes to say, ‘made with love’ 
ENJOY!

Grandma Koontz’ Cakes
Okay so these are THE absolute favorite breakfast around here–add in some of my home canned pears and you have silent (at least at the breakfast table) happy children (including the BIG kid at the head of the table!) Grama Koontz went home to the Father, right when dh & I married, I never got to meet her. 
I hear stories, and this lady was a pistol! I would of loved her dearly, I know! I have her old griddle and will keep her recipe alive and the stories my husband tells, about being a kid at Grama’s and how she always made him these, his favorite ‘cakes!
In a large bowl, stir very well :
6 Eggs
4C Buttermilk (1 Quart)
¼ C Olive Oil
1C Half n’ Half
1 Tb. Yeast
4C Organic Flour
2Tb Baking Soda
2Tb Baking Powder (aluminum FREE)
2Tb Sugar
1 Tb Sea Salt
When done mixing, put this into a large pitcher (for easy pour) or Tupperware with lid. Store in fridge and stir daily~will keep at least 2 weeks. These make for a Soooo simple, hot breakfast that is Deeeeeeeelicious!
These truly are the best pancakes!
