It is funny. Before I write a blog, I try to research the topic to make sure I am being somewhat factual. (Nope, that isn’t the funny part.) I mean, just in case my blog comes up in someone’s search engine on a topic, I want to be considered a good resource. (Still not the …

Getting to the Heart of Dinner
What should we have for dinner? I don’t usually ask my husband this question. It is not because I don’t want to fulfill his needs. (I’m still talking about dinner…not the other naughty stuff.) It is because his response is usually farfetched. He wants something that requires a major grocery shopping trip, hours in the …
Summer Lovin’ (And Chicken too)
There are a lot of reasons why I especially love this time of year. Part of the reason is the warming weather and the gorgeous, glowing sun. It is the greenness of the trees and the clearness of the blue sky. Mostly it is because 17 years ago I fell in love with my husband …
One Elle of a Challenge
I am not one to brag (if you are a regular reader you know I love to brag….humor me) but I have a lot of friends. When you live in a small town for 16 years, you meet a lot of people and inadvertently become friends. Now I’m not saying these are ALL friends who …
Bon Appétit Cook The Cover-February 2014
Zoiks!!! I am cutting it close this month. I’ve been doing great keeping my New Year’s Resolutions but I almost let February slip by without cooking the cover of the February Bon Appétit. I will admit I was procrastinating on this one. It was not that Chicken and Dumplings with Mushrooms wasn’t appealing to me. …
Olive Juice Sisters
Sisters. They are interesting creatures. For some people, they are their best friends. For other people, they are your worst enemies. You are raised together and share similar experiences and yet your lives can seem like you have been raised on separate planets. Some sisters look alike their entire lives while others have only mere …
Chumbo
Brrrrr!!!! If you don’t live in the Midwest, I consider you lucky right now. The last two days have been filled with incredible amounts of snow and wickedly low temperatures. It is so cold…..how cold is it…it is so cold that we are eating with plastic silverware so that our forks won’t stick to our …
A Foodie Fun Day: Pecking Order
Am I the only one who feels you never forget your first? I mean, the first chef to truly knock your socks off with their food. (I’m not sure where you thought I was going on this one.) When I first started blogging, I had the honor to enjoy a huge feast prepared by Kristine …
Jamaican Me Twerk Chicken
I really try to think that I keep up with current events, trends and pop culture. But in all honesty, I know I am always a little bit behind what people are talking about at the water cooler. (Or do people just catch up holding their Nalgene bottles?) But there is one thing that I …
Girl On Grill Action
Let’s admit it ladies. We all know the men in our lives have fantasies. Some admit it with no hesitation but there are others who adamantly deny that anything like that ever goes on in their head. The real truth comes out when you say something to your spouse and he doesn’t hear you right. …
