I put roasted okra in a creamy Cajun pasta. You’re either going to high five me, or somehow forgive me. I get extremely squeal-y giddy at this time of year. School is back in sesh (<–not sorry), football season is lurking around the corner (<–don’t really care for the sport, just the overall spirit vibe), […]
Friday Flotsam
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFriday. Do your hands ever forget what they’re supposed to do? You know like, muscle memory? Actually, not that. But more like, they just straight forget the order of movemental motions. Okay wait. What I mean, specifically, is when you’re either rubbing eye makeup remover on your face, or applying moisturizer. You know how your […]
What We’re Diggin’! (Summer 2016)
Oh, hey, hey, hey! And welcome to the summer edition of What We’re Diggiiiin’! (I’m not giving you a car.) I thought I was phasing this series out, but thanks to the tsunami wave of your, “Um, NU UH, home girl,” I kept it! And so glad I did, because I have theee coolest, most […]
GirlSquad Getaway to Cabo, Mexico
I went to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico! Did you know I went to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico? I went to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. And it was a b s o l u t e h e a v e n. Six of my favorite ladies, 18 swimsuits, 9 bottles of sunscreen, 12ish bottles of […]
Friday Flotsam

Monthly Mixtape: All the Vibes.
Well would you look at that – it’s AUGUST. (!) How did we get here?! Besides the whole space time continuum thing. Okay, I’m changing it up a little this month! First of all, it’s my birthday month. Not only that, it’s a milestone birthday. I’m turning 40. (FORTY.) But isn’t 40 the new 20? […]
The Stuff I Actually Make from Bev Cooks
As of right this second, I have packed my little striped carry on, washed my hair, straightened my hair, curled my hair, applied my Kardashian self tanner (don’t hate), painted my nails, chipped my nails, kissed my baby gremlins goodnight and fallen in bed for theeee earliest crack-a-liciousĀ flight to Cabo, Mexico! (just like Sex […]
Italian Chicken and Rice Casserole
This is going to send you into a tailspin. The cheesiest, chicken-iest, tomato-iest casserole HACK tailspin of yo’ life. I’m totally ripping myself in this recipe. But it’s okay because before I came up with this dish, I told myself I was going to rip myself, and myself responded to myself and said, “Dude, totally […]
Friday Flotsam
FFFridaYYY. Okay, so I snapped about this ^^^ flower yesterday. And of course I asked you what it was, because it had slipped Aaron’s mind and I was too lazy to use Dr. Goog. Well, as soon as I walked back in house, I looked it up. (I’m great at timing.) (Also, ignore the weeds. […]
Corn and Mushroom Ramen Bowls
I’m still trying to find ways to stick summer in soup. And I’d call this one a dern success. First of all, it’s fresh corn! When it’s July and hot and blazin’ hot and very hot and summer and July and hot in July you use fresh corn. It’s mandatory for your health and personal […]
