Mini Chicken Gyros

Mini Chicken Gyros

My first encounter with Greek food was in Chicago during a trip that seems like forever ago now. My friend, Renee, had been living there for a few years and I flew my pregnant self to Chicago for a “last-hoorah” kind of girls’ weekend. We went all over the place, but my favorite place was this little Greek restaurant around the corner from her apartment. We dodged angry drivers ...

Lemon Dill Shrimp Salad

Lemon DIll Shrimp Salad

Light and refreshing, Lemon Dill Shrimp Salad is a divine summer lunch or light dinner. Use up any leftover shrimp from the night before in this simple salad. I feel like we are on the cusp of something here and the excitement (and certain amount of fear) that new opportunities bring is not exactly a situation that I am used to. The last time I felt that we were on the cusp ...

Shrimp Tacos with Jalapeno Slaw

Shrimp Tacos with Jalapeno Slaw

    Right now, in my mind, I am on vacation. I am not actually on vacation, I am somewhere towards the beginning of what will eventually turn into the busiest, most stressful, and exhausting month of my life. The month of May has now been dubbed Hell Month. Do you ever have one of those months? Where you just stare at your calendar in disbelief and wonder how all of this got ...

Horseradish Dill Deviled Eggs

Horseradish Dill Deviled Eggs

A few weeks ago I was looking back through some old posts and came across one about what I hoped to have one day (and stuffed artichokes which by the way are delicious and I should totally make this again soon). The very first line of that post is: "My dream is to one day move out of suburbia and back into the country. I would like to have a few acres of land for the kids ...

Herb Buttered Turkey

Herb Buttered Turkey

This traditional style turkey is exactly what you want on your holiday table. It's got a nice crispy skin, a wonderfully fruity aroma and nice juicy meat. Serve it up with some homemade cornbread dressing and maybe some decadent crab mac-n-cheese. Happy eating y'all! The funniest thing happened the day before Thanksgiving 6 years ago. There I was, big as a barn, pulling a ...

The Difference a Year can Bring

Separating the Curds from the Whey - Cheese making

Here we are at the end of another year and I have been thinking over the last few days about how far we have come since this time last year. 2011 started with some really tough decisions for us. We made one huge leap of faith at the beginning of the year when we decided to cut our losses and move back to Tennessee. It wasn't a decision we took lightly, but one that we felt like ...

From Scratch Chocolate Meringue Pie

Chocolate Meringue Pie

Speaking of enjoyable, this Chocolate Meringue Pie is one of my favorite ways to blow a diet. It's so rich and creamy and the ingredients to make one is almost always in my house. It's pretty darn inexpensive, too. Sugar, flour, cocoa, eggs, milk, butter, vanilla and a pie crust and you've got yourself an impressive dessert that everyone will love. If you can get your hands on ...

Tuna Tuesday: Wasabi Tuna Sushi

Wasabi Tuna Sushi

It's Tuesday and that means... TUNA TUESDAY! WooHoo! I have really begun to look forward to these posts. It's a lot of fun to try to come up with different ways to use a can of meat. I have also been exploring the canned meat aisle in the grocery store to see what other kinds of options there are. It is quite surprising to see the variety that is offered. I am still ...

Phyllo Wrapped Pork with Apple-Thyme Chutney

Valentine's Day is just around the corner and right now we are up to our eyeballs in Valentine's cards for 14 preschoolers. We have been cutting, gluing, sticking stickers, and writing our names for a couple of days now. The end result is eventually going to be 24 handmade butterfly Valentine's. Aren't they cute?!

A Fancy Schmancy Brunch

Well, I guess you have all figured out by now that I didn't make it to the third round of Project Food Blog. It's okay. I'm not too devastated. I am learning to cope with my devastation. Okay, it's not quite that bad. I did do round 3 just in case I did actually make it. Round 3 was for a fancy dinner party. Let me just tell you that "fancy" and "dinner party" don't ...

So date night was awesome! We saw some great live music in honer of Piano Red aka "Dr. Feelgood .( that's this guy here) He wrote Mr. Moonlight ( yes, the Beatles covered that) and The Right String but the Wrong Yo-Yo.
