The Final Day’s of Rodeo….
Another year has come to an end. This year was the perfect weather, it wasn’t too hot and it wasn’t too cold, it was just right. I know sounds like a story book tale, but it really was fantastic weather for once. Saturday night was Brad Paisly. How could you not love...
Salsa Mix Review
Have you made salsa from a packet like this? I got a free sample in the mail so I thought I would give it a shot. Hubby likes the warm cooked salsas as well as the fresh so I thought it would be an easy last minute sub for when we wanted salsa and I didn’t wanna make...
Lemon Alfredo
For Sunday steak night I changed up the side dishes instead of making a potato or vegetable I had some home made pasta to use up so I tried a quick and easy recipe from the Food Network magazine. Lemon-Pepper Fettuccine (Adapted from Food Network Magazine) Printer...
Last week of rodeo….
It’s been a long ride and it’s almost over. The rodeo ends this Sunday so I’ll have a couple pictures to share next week as well. This year has been an amazing rodeo season and it’s a little bitter sweet. I really do enjoy going to the rodeo I just don’t enjoy going...
Turkey Reuben
I really like a Reuben sandwich every once in a while, but there’s only so many I want to eat in a row so instead of buying corned beef, I decided to change it up and use some leftover turkey we had. Hubby was pleasantly surprised that it was really good. Of course...
Lobster Oil and Stock
Last week I posted the boil recipe we use. (Click HERE for details) Now it’s time to share what I do with the shells once we’ve stuffed ourselves with the meat. One of the most flavorful parts of the crawfish and lobster has to be the shells! To make them stretch a...
Second Week of Rodeo Down…
Oh my what a week!!! Saying I need a nap is an understatement! Saturday we headed back to the rodeo for Billy Currington. He put on a fantastic show, but first here’s some snaps of the rodeo part of the show. Billy Currington is a great performer and I really like...
Boiled Lobster
Today is Ash Wednesday and for those fellow Catholics like myself that means no more meat on Friday’s till Easter. My husband is Baptist and usually is a good sport going along with my meatless Friday’s (mainly because he has to fix his own meal or eat what I’m eating...
Grilled Fresh Artichokes with Dipping Sauces
Have you ever grilled an artichoke? I have never had them done this way. As my husband would say they are very labor intensive for the end result. I think it’s worth it if you are going to make a bunch for a crowd, but it wasn’t worth it for the 2 that I made. I have...
First Week of Rodeo Down…
We started off Tuesday night at the rodeo and the performer was Clay Walker. He really put on a great show. The suite had lots of food! Nothing kicks off the rodeo like some fireworks! Wednesday night was Trace Adkins. I wanted to see him, but we didn’t make it out...
Crab Ravioli with Lemon Butter
Well, I finally got around to making the ravioli I was going to make for Valentines. The only difference is I didn’t use a heart shaped cutter to cut out the ravioli. I know I’ve mentioned in the past that if you don’t have time to make pasta you can use won ton...
Cheddar & Black Pepper Biscuits and a Giveaway
Happy Monday! We had some perfect weather over the weekend and was able to go out and enjoy it by finally washing the cars, hanging out at the dog park and eating dinner out on the patio. Dinner club was Saturday night and the host chose to do pizzas so we all brought...
