I have so many memories from my childhood of walking into our house after school and having all senses go on alert because of the tantalizing smells emanating from the slow cooker on the kitchen counter. Rich, savory, mouth-watering smells that indicated that a tender, fall-a-part, delicious, flavor-packed meal was in the very near future….
Happy Monday! Today’s Mouthwatering Monday is up a bit late due to the no internet while out of town situation – oops! I want to take a moment to thank everyone who’s served in the military and their families for their sacrifice and the gift of our Freedom. Memorial Day is not about a 3…
I’m here to make a confession. Get settled in comfy, y’all. It’s about to get fishy. I was probably 18 the first time that I can remember eating fish voluntarily, and liking it. It wasn’t even a big deal fish, it was a starter fish like mahi-mahi or tilapia, and I’m fairly sure I dipped…
Happy Monday, y’all! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I’m going to start today on a bit of a sad note and with a P.S.A. PLEASE – PLEASE – PLEASE, if you drink – do not DO NOT Drive. Our family lost a very dear friend this weekend. Friday night, my Mother-in-Law’s very best friend was hit and killed by…
I remember way back when Nathan and I started dating – way back when Moby Dick was a minnow, he would tell me about this burger place and this burger to end all burgers that he would eat when he was attending A&M Corpus Christi. I heard about this burger for years y’all – YEARS. …
We’ve had that burger up there twice in the past two weeks for two reasons. 1) It’s that good 2) It’s that good I’ll be sharing the recipe with y’all later this week, but for now y’all can just drool over the picture. I hinted last week that there are changes coming to the blog…
I had a really hard time coming up with a name for these cookies. Can you tell? There’s dark chocolate chips, melted dark chocolate, nuts, craisins, coconut oil and browned butter… mmmmm browned butter. I want to write sonnets about browned butter. It’s that amazing. I’ve seen recipes with browned butter floating around the web,…

Alright y’all. It’s not often that I say this, but I’m pattin’ myself on the back over this recipe. It is absolutely, positively, hands down one of the best recipes that I’ve ever made. Seriously. If you’ve never grilled an avocado, you’re missing out. Once you’ve eaten a grilled avocado your life changes for the…

Today’s post is part of my partnership with the California Avocado commission. I want to talk about spicy pulled slow cooker pork wrapped up in tortillas and baked until crisp, then dipped in creamy, somewhat zingy, avocado dipping sauce. Let’s talk about easy, delicious, and perfect for your Cinco de Mayo fiesta! One…
{God bless each and every one of you who is dealing with Taxes today} Today is the release of my wonderfully talented friend Lori’s new cookbook: The Recipe Girl Cookbook!!
