The fridge has been cleaned out and restocked, and I’m on my way back up the ladder after a dismal week of culinary mishaps. It happens to everyone, I suppose, but for some reason I seem to take the hit harder than most. I screwed up egg salad for the love of criminy. That is […]

Dear Internet, I’m sorry for disappearing so abruptly. I just came home from Utah and then, well, life did what it seems to have a way of doing and straight took me out of the game. Seriously you don’t want details, but I had some surgery and much to my dismay, it took just frankly […]

Biscuits are something people develop extremely strong opinions about and at the same time such an intense love affair for the preferred style it becomes difficult to even appreciate other methods. When my sister’s husband wanted to move from the city of San Francisco out into the woods to have trees and nature and a […]

Last night I saw the Wallflowers perform at the Red Bute Gardens in Salt Lake City. I thought I was getting a beautiful picture of our picnic setup, but it was super bright and I guess I couldn’t tell it was all shadowy at the time. To the left is a fresh chive hummus I […]

Possibly the best thing to ever come out of Alabama is West Indies Crab Salad, IMO. My godmother taught me to make this recipe years ago and I just absolutely love it. My little sister wasn’t born in Alabama, but my Godmother bribed my mother to have the christening take place in Alabama with promises […]

A few months ago we had dinner at a restaurant here in Dallas called The Porch. Our friends ordered the fried cheese appetizer. I am all about fried cheese, any time, any place, any cheese. But this was truly exceptional. We all agreed, and I vowed to attempt a home re-creation. The menu lists the […]

This post will wrap up the party food and I’ll be back to our regularly featured programming. I have an exciting plan to recreate an appetizer I had at The Porch Restaurant tomorrow, so tune back in for that. The end of the party preparation had me totally feeling like the Iron Chef. There was […]

If you eat beef, it would be borderline insanity not to love beef tenderloin sandwiches. Tenderloin, though expensive, is such a great cut of meat, it’s almost impossible to mess up. Lots of people marinate them and otherwise season, I go for utter simplicity in my tenderloin and let the meat show its unparalleled flavor. […]
