Welcome to That Old Lady Influencer.  That's me on the left.  The Old Lady. On the right is the Little Old Lady, my sweet daughter.   Here you will find recipes and ideas for things to do around your home to make life delicious and festive.  When I'm not reading murder mysteries or playing golf I'm thinking about food.  What to eat.  What to cook.  How to cook it differently next time, how to make it better.  I'm not a professional recipe creator- more like a recipe tweaker. 

 

I became That Old Lady Influencer after my sweet young neighbor mentioned she had looked in our front picture windows and liked the decorations we had above the fireplace.  She said she had been watching them change from Halloween to Thanksgiving to Christmas to Valentines and it had inspired her to get out her decorations too.  Hopefully you will find a recipe that inspires you to make something fabulous for dinner or a decorating tip that makes your house more holidayesque.  

 

I love making something, making notes on the recipe and tailoring it to our family the next time I make it.  Sometimes I make a stinker.  Never have we had to order pizza instead of eating what I made, but it's been close a time or two.  Mr. Old Lady and I sit down and make a list of all the things we might want to make that week.  Lots of rain in the forecast? Let's make a soup.  Summer time and it's lighter longer? How about magic pizza on Dante the BBQ? 

​​

This isn't a place to learn to cook: there are way too many other avenues for that.  As a newlywed in the 1990's I religiously watched Martha Stewart's TV show and learned techniques and tips that I use still today.  

​

Let me know what you're thinking about eating and let's see if we can make something fabulous together!
