Shout out to my Peeps
Easter is almost here and the one thing there's a lot of at the stores is Peeps. They are super cute and I thought this year I would make some for my family and friends. Well the process is a little long (took 20 minutes to make 4 figures) so I decided to do little...
April Fools Moldy Key Lime Pie
So yesterday I was the 1,000 texter on a local radio station and won Houston Rockets tickets for last nights game against the Washington Wizards. That was my first basketball game and now I'm hooked. We won 98 to 94 which was a close game the whole time. Go...
Maple-Glazed Potatoes and Coobook Giveaway
Wow another busy weekend and I'm beat. We unloaded 1 yard of sand to level out the yard Friday night and another Saturday morning. Then we had a bunch of friends over to smoke some meat and boil crawfish. Yummy!! Sunday I planted some flowers I bought and also a...
Rosemary-Garlic Pork with Roasted Vegetables and Caramelized Apples
Parsnips are something I don't think I've ever had and seem to be a vegetable that pops up in all the recipes I've been seeing lately. I had to do some research to figure out what they would taste like and how to pick them out at the grocery store. They're similar to...
Lemon-Cream Pasta Toss
Yee-haw rodeo is over and it's nice to get things back to normal around here! Friday was our actual last day of the rodeo we decided to skip Saturday and Sunday. It rained cats and dogs here on Saturday and temps dropped again. What's up with this crazy weather we...
Mushroom Escargot
The first time I ever had escargot was the night I got engaged. Since then I love it, ok well it's covered in butter and garlic what's not to love. I've never made it at home. I'm not even sure where you would go to pick out snails nor what to look for in picking them...

Veggie Mac and Cheese
I was recently asked by someone for a recipe that kids would like for those picky eaters that don't like veggies. My inspiration was mac and cheese, what kid doesn't like that? I snuck in some squash, which when it was cooked and mashed turned creamy and with it being...
Peanut Butter Pudding
If you like eating peanut butter out of the container then you're in luck I have the perfect recipe for you today. I used little ramekins and that was too big of a portion size. I'm thinking next time I'll use this as a filling in a cupcake or else serve in shot glass...
Italian Bread Bowls
I know you're dieing to see pictures of the Jonas Brothers from yesterday! I have to let you done and say that I don't have any. This year I swapped teams to avoid the teen night, and to my surprise all I did was move into the line of fire. Lucky for me I worked a...
