Life as a mother can be challenging but also really rewarding. The love you receive from this bundle of joy is unconditional. Yes, they can drive you nuts every once in a while but when they come up to you and give you a kiss or a hug just out of the blue; your heart is melting.

Potato Dumplings
6 medium sized potoes
2 eggs
½ cup flour
Boil the potatoes and smash them without the water as soon as they are soft. Cool them completely. Then add the eggs and flour and mix everything really well. Then form some 2-inch balls out of the mixture and cook them for 10-15 minutes in some simmering lightly salted water.

Deer Goulash
15 juniper berries
1/2 tsp ginger
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 1/2 lbs deer meat (back strap or deer steak)
salt/pepper
4 carrots
2 leeks
1 big onion
1/4 cup of bacon fat
1/4 tsp thyme
1 bay leave
3/4 cup red wine
3/4 cup water
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
2 Tbsp cranberry sauce (whole cranberries)
Crash the juniper berries and mix it with the ginger, cinnamon and salt/pepper. Cut the deer meat in cubes and rub the seasoning on it. Cut the bacon fat in very small cubes and brown it in a large pot. Add the seasoned meat and brown it as well.
Meanwhile chop the vegetables (carrots, leeks, and onion). Add them to the meat and cook them for a little bit with the meat. Add the rest of the seasonings such as thyme and the bay leave. Add the red wine and water, cover it and let it cook on low to medium heat for about 2 1/2 hours. If necessary you might have to add some more water after a while. After the meat is tender and the vegetables are cooked; you have to fish the meat out of the stock. After you have done that (it is some work, I won't lie) you make a sauce out of the vegetables and liquid. Use a hand-held blender for it. Be careful it is extremely hot at this point. After the vegetables have disappeared into a sauce, add the meat back and now you can finish the dish up with the heavy cream and cranberry sauce.
Serve over potato dumplings or potatoes. Usually I would also serve it with some apple red cabbage but Walmart has discontinued this item. Well, I can fix it again in Germany. I don't have the time to make this delicious side dish myself right now.

1/2 cup butter, melted
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
20 oz crushed pineapple with juice
2 cups flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
coconut topping
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup sugar
5 oz evaporated milk
3/4 cup sweetened flaked coconut
1 cup chopped pecans
1 tsp vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a large bowl, combine butter, sugar, and eggs. Mix everything well. Stir in the pineapple, flour, baking powder, and vanilla. Bake in a 13x9-inch greased and floured baking dish for 50 minutes.
In a medium saucepan bring the butter, sugar, and milk to a boil and boil it for about 4 minutes over medium-high heat; you have to stir constantly. Remove from heat and stir in the coconut, pecans, and vanilla.
Spread the coconut mixture over the hot cake and return the cake back to the oven and bake it until the top is browned.
Enjoy.

This is my mother-in-laws recipe
2 eggs
2 lbs ground chuck
8 oz tomato sauce
1/2 finely chopped onion
1/2 sleeve saltine crackers (crushed)
1/2 Tbsp Texjoy steak seasoning
1 tsp pepper
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine the meat, onion, crackers, eggs, and seasonings in a bowl. We use our hands in the Stephens Family. Add in 1/2 of the tomato sauce. Spray a baking dish with non-stick spray. Using your hands form a nice meatloaf in the baking dish. Spread the remaining tomato sauce on top. Bake uncovered for 1 hour or until the meat is done.
