This weekend we went up to the cabin, like we do most of the Summer time. This time McGyver suggested we go for a stroll through the woods. A stroll through the nice shady woods on a hot summer day, who could resist. We loaded up in the Rhino and Becca was coming along (Summer […]
Last weekend Mcgyver and I went lake Krabbing. We set our krab pots out late one evening, full of bait and woke up early the next morning to see what we caught. Much to my delight we caught a Krab. Oh happy days, I couldn’t wait to prepare a tasty lunch that day. Yes, that’s […]
Saturday morning, after a long week I wanted to make some home made biscuits for breakfast. They had been on my mind all week. Biscuits, warm and flaky. After making a pot of coffee, I delved into the refrigerator to get my ingredients. Hmmm, no buttermilk, no regular milk, only 2 tbsp. of butter. Yeah, […]
As soon as I get my Williams-Sonoma catalog I tear through it, looking at every item on every page. Devouring every recipe, exciting new product and then checking my account and once again realizing that I have the proverbial champagne taste on a beer budget. I may not be able to afford everything I want […]
Would you believe it if I told you that I’m the only member of my family that likes football? It’s true; if I watch a game I watch it alone while everyone else goes about their business. Except for one time a year, Super Bowl time. Suddenly on Super Bowl day I have a crowd […]
This week has started off very busy. It’s been all about the Baby boy. I work 50+ hours a week and I barely have time to make dinner some nights. It really depends on my schedule. When I work the “open” shift I get home early so I can plan a nice meal, when I […]
As I continue to dig through my photo archives I keep running across dishes that I have made that I haven’t posted for one reason or another. This dish was pure inspiration for me, okay maybe not pure…but definitely inspired. I was reading a book that my partner in crime at work had loaned me. […]
Like my Pork Roast with Chimichurri, my Pepper Jack Mashed potatoes were basically thrown together on a whim. They are so flavorful and stupidly simple to make. I used Yukon Gold potatoes because they have a nice buttery flavor and I am trying to be a bit healthier. I felt like I could reduce the […]
Anyone who knows me well knows that I don’t like to get up early. I’m a proverbial snoozer,I lay in bed and go through what I could skip so I can stay in bed a little longer: drink coffee at work, take a frozen meal for lunch or go out to eat, put my make-up on at […]
As I’ve said before I work with some pretty talented people! One of them, Aimee Hachigian-Gould. Aimee is a down to earth friendly person. She’s an amazing cook, rancher and on top of that she is an orthopedic doctor. Not only does Aimee run a ranch, her orthopedic practice, compete in numerous competitions she is […]
