Hi! Remember me? Yeah, it’s been a while. Life is busy, y’all. I have a two year old and a four year old and a full time job and little time for anything else. I wouldn’t have it any other way! So here I am again to share a great recipe with you – one […]
Caprese Salad To Go It’s tomato season! There’s something about a fresh, juicy tomato straight from the garden that just says summer. Not knowing it at the time, I got spoiled as a kid because we had a plethora of tomatoes, bursting with flavor, from our garden every summer. As a grown […]
Farro is new on the scene in my life. I’d heard about it for a while, but I never got around to trying it until I found a package of prepared farro at the local Tar-zhay store. Here’s a crash course on Farro. An ancient grain, farro is an excellent source of complex carbohydrates and has twice […]

Here’s a short list of a few recipes I’ve shared previously that I think would make a great addition to your backyard BBQ. Hope you find something you’ll […]

So, I have new obsession, and it doesn’t even involve peanut butter. I know, try to contain your surprise. It’s this pink fluff.

I’ve said before that whenever we go to our friends’ Dave and Kylie’s for dinner, we bring a salad (or when they come over, they bring the salad). This was my most recent creation for dinner at Dave and Kylie’s. I have to admit, I am kind of a salad freak. I love them, and […]
We were having some family over recently to help with a house project, and I planned on cooking out for them. It was a busy weekend, so I wanted to make sides that would be easy and make a lot of food. Potato salad always seems to go over well, but the traditional, mayonnaise laden variety […]
There are many reasons I love summer: the warm early summer weather (not this 100+ degree heat we’ve been having), sleeping in, getting to spend time with Tim and Josie, the drive-in movie theater, traveling, and the wonderful produce (to name a few). Nothing says summer quite like fresh tomatoes from the garden. When I […]
