I’m back in Dallas and thrilled to be home. Packing, driving halfway across the country, arriving, seeing my husband, family and friends has kept me busy.

I tend towards a from-scratch style of cooking. One because I enjoy the process so much and two because I know each and every ingredient going into my meals. Since I’m visiting with family, I’m going to be highlighting a lot of other people’s best dishes this month, in addition to my own creations. This […]

I’ve been off the grid for a couple of days while I made my way out to the mountains. 20 hour car ride with 2 preschoolers means I’ve been eating pretty terribly. I think a stop at Applebee’s was the highlight of my culinary experiences en route. And that’s really not saying very much. But […]

Tonight we had chicken on the grill, Houdyshell style, topped with Andrew’s amazing Chimichurri Sauce and a Citrus Vinaigrette Salad. It was like the culmination of all things friends and family and the beginning of summer. I’ve made a pact to start using our grill more; we’ve taken an unacceptable hiatus due to an empty propane tank. […]

I’m feeling very celebrative (celebratory?) this weekend, and just in time to help me out, my sister sent me a bunch of sparkling wine for my birthday. I have amazingly talented sisters who spoil me with absurdly nice presents. Hopefully they’re okay with the fact that I’m the worst gift giver in America. Nothing stresses […]

But sometimes what matters is simply providing my family with something to eat. Luckily this meal was made with all on hand products. It’s taken […]

Food can bring back memories, and memories can bring back food. I went to a wedding once, not one of my finer moments. The wedding was for one of my now husband’s cousins. At the time, I was busy having a nervous breakdown about the fact that I was still not engaged and being asked […]
