I don’t know about you, but my fancy is like, way tickled with all these appetizers this week. And we’re not done yet, my sweet pookie bears! (I’m sorry. I’m going through some things. Just . . . let me.) I’m posting something summery and grilly and dipperydoo today to help my heart come to [...]

Mexican Turkey Meatloaf
Happy Halloween! And welcome back to this week’s theme, Why Didn’t I Think of That, the story of a young woman’s journey through the pages of success born from the hands and minds of her foodie peers that she’s not jealous of at all – their cookbooks. In my head I sound like Ira Glass. [...]
Mexican Meatball Soup
Meatball-eh meatball-eh! Okay. I’m already royally scrizzed for this month. See, Aaron and I have this tradition. And I should know better, really. Each Halloween we watch scary movies. And they’re across the board scary. Like, Scream-scary, Rosemary’s Baby-scary, Poltergeist-scary, Joan Rivers documentary-scary. Anything goes. But a couple of days ago we accidentally totally on [...]
Late Summer Grilled Corn Salsa
(to be read to the tune of “release me” by wilson phillips. and I am so, so sorry.) I know that it’s time for a change Mmm but when that change comes Will you still taste the same? How many times have I longed to grill you when it’s cold? I don’t want to give [...]
Vegetarian Stuffed Poblano Peppers

Because I still have mine. Although, mine say “His-Bro” because it was church camp. Yep. I gotta say though, I [...]

June is busting out ALL OVEERRRRRR. Hi, I’m Bev and I like to jump the gun on everything ever. And I’m such a weenie too because we got spa-oiled this winter. We barely had one! Old Man Winter sneezed once and threw in the towel. Right on, OMW. But I have this 5-degree comfort zone [...]

Homemade Salsa
Salsa: it’s one of summer’s most quintessential snacks. We all love it. We all need it. We all inhale roughly 140 pounds of it during these warm, ripe months. But, are you used to only eating it out of jars or small tubs? Are you on the verge of an emotion breakdown over the limp [...]
Tex-Mex Pork, Y’all
This weekend was fantastic. From getting massages, to Aaron making the best pizza known to man, to attending a fabulous party yesterday with great friends, I’m satisfied. Oh and I got 2 new cooking magazines in the mail. That sealed the deal for what I call an excellent weekend. Now it’s time to press the [...]
