    Plowman's Lunch

    September 8, 2017

    I'm fascinated with all things British, and their traditional lunches are no exception. Stemming from the farmers taking a sack lunch out into the fields, the plowman's lunch is the ultimate in clean eating.

    Usually consisting of a protein (a ham slice or egg), a loaf o...

    A Taste of Home

    June 27, 2017

    Since we have a holiday approaching, I thought I'd share my favorite BBQ sauce with you. This is a white sauce, made for chicken, turkey, or pork. It was invented in my hometown, and has won the national championship six times! If you've never had a white sauce, I urge...

    Eating My Way Through 30A

    May 23, 2017

    I make some sacrifices for you, I'll tell ya!

    I recently made a two day trek up and down a stretch of the Florida coast to see the emerald water and eat some amazing food. Since 30A has become an even hotter tourist attraction in the past few years, I'm sharing some of...

    I'll pack a lunch

    April 11, 2017

    Hello Spring! Glad to see you! I am especially excited about eating al fresco, so I thought I'd share a few picnic ideas with you today.

    Most of the time, our picnics are a last-minute affair, so I don't get to do the Pintrest worthy craft foods you sometimes see. It's...

    Olive you guys! (Get it?)

    April 4, 2017

    Since I do love ya, I wanted to share the most adorable store with you, and they will even ship to your door! Bodacious Olive, out of Pensacola, Florida, specializes in olive oil and vinegar in unbelievable combinations. Think Wild Mushroom and Sage or Milanese Gremola...

    Laissez les bons temps rouler!

    February 21, 2017

    Oh, how I love king cake during Mardi Gras season!  But it must be made with cream cheese! None of that grocery store dryness for me!

    If you don't have a bakery in your area that does a cream-cheese filled cake, you can make your own with the following recipe.

    For the do...

    Not really a cheese ball, cheese ball

    January 5, 2017

    YOU GUYS! Do you ever make something off Pintrest and it turns out to be AMAZING?! Well, I had that experience and I have to share it with you.

    This is a sweet cheese ball, perfect for desserts or snacking. The inspiration for this recipe came from the-girl-who-ate-ever...

    Have you tried....?

    November 17, 2016

    Have you tried a cooking class? I signed up for one years ago, but it turned out to be a demonstration with no hands-on work. So imagine my delight when I got to do real work in a class at Sur la Table!

    Seriously-so fun. We did this as an alternative birthday party for...

    Pumpkin chunk

    October 26, 2016

    Full disclosure: I am not on the gluten-free bandwagon. Ash, however, is. He says it helps his body not ache, and he swears he can tell when he is on or off gluten-free foods.

    So in the spirit of being supportive, I decided to make him a treat. He has the worst chocolat...
