After the April 27th tornado took my home I stayed with neighbors. My little Schitzapoo stayed with me. I had to be near to see about things, hubby stayed at a local motel. They fixed a wonderful bed room for me and Cricket. Their home was our home. Katherine is 91 and her son lives with her. She is totally amazing, doesn't look or act her age. We talked about enjoying Liver and Onions and she's a wonderful cook. Last week they invited me to lunch and she had the most wonderful Smothered Liver and Onions with creamed potatoes and a garden salad. This recipe is in honor of my wonderful friend and neighbor Katherine Cobb.
