We’re painting the entire upstairs of our home. It makes me want to lay down for another week. Our hope is that the Soldier will land a job down in San Antonio and we’ll need to put our house on the market. Like I said- it’s a hope. Since I’m all about not getting caught…

Concha Bread Pudding Breakfast Bake
Cinco de Mayo and Mother’s Day are fast approaching, so I’ve developed a recipe that fits both bills! This Concha Bread Pudding Breakfast Bake is a perfect blend of sweet pastry and quick assembly. Basically, it’s everything mom wishes she could have on a regular basis. If you’re in charge of preparing mom’s morning meal this…
Bacon-Wrapped Brined Pork Loin with Mushroom Gravy
I believe that Sunday dinners should be a big thing. You don’t have to have a large family (or even be a family) to do Sunday dinners- you just need people you love to join you. As a military family, we’ve spent our fair share of Sundays apart. Now that retirement is looming, I look…
Roasted Tomato-Basil Bisque- Quick & Easy
It’s is currently thirty-nine degrees in Central Texas. I feel like one of those insects that’s been frozen alive. Nothing makes sense and I’m watching the world pass me by because I’m frozen stiff. I imagine that if someone were to pour this Roasted Tomato-Basil Bisque down my gullet, I’d be okay. If only there…
Confetti White Chocolate Chip Cookies
I’m always on the lookout for new products to test in the kitchen. It’s this weird obsession I have with new flavors, techniques, and tools, I guess. My hard and fast rule is: whatever I bring into the kitchen cannot be single-use. If it’s in my place, it’s gotta give me a variety of things…
Cilantro-Lime Bulgur Bowls with Sweet Potatoes
QUICK!!! Let’s hurry up and eat something healthy before our bodies know what we’re doing!!! I’ve resolved to be better to my body this year. It hasn’t happened yet, meaning: I’ve not set one foot into a gym to date. I’m good with me, though, because I have been drinking the hell outta some water annnnnd, I…
Butternut Squash and Apple Bisque
I’m a fat, lazy bum. The amount of food I indulged in during the holidays was sinful. Don’t get me wrong, I thoroughly enjoy every single bit of it, but now I’m just…blah. I’m totally resolving to eat healthier this year…or, this week. Or, definitely, at least today. A vegetarian Butternut Squash and Apple Bisque…
Coconut-Raspberry Thumbprint Cookies
Happy 2019 to you!! I wish you nothing but health, happiness and amazing recipes in the year to come. I’m going to help with that last one- don’t you worry. You may think the holiday gift-giving season is over, and for you, it may be; but for some of us, we’re still in the midst…
Holiday Leftovers Breakfast Casserole
I’m ready for the holidays to be over; like for real, for real. There are so many airs to put on throughout the holidays- even if it’s unintentional. “Pretend you like this gift, pretend you like that co-worker”…it’s just too much. I’m grateful for the celebration, don’t get me wrong. Time just needs to hustle along. One good…
Salted Vanilla Caramel Sauce for Desserts & More
I looooathe the term “Food Porn”. It’s just so tacky and gross. However, if I had to describe one food as “sensual”, “seductive”, or “illicit”; this Salted Vanilla Caramel Sauce would be it. Just look at it…this…this gooey deliciousness! It’s enough to make you want to eat it with a spoon straight from the jar. Which I have…
