Not That Kind Of Mojo, Baby

tumblr_ld37b31Kk31qdz03r

What is a mojo sauce you ask? Well, I can tell you what it’s not. It doesn’t involve a dose of Austin Power’s charm or a spoon full of self-esteem or even a cup of charisma, although I’m wondering as I type this out if I’m on to something. PATENT PENDING! I said it first. […]

  We have less than three weeks until Christmas. Did you know that? Are you done shopping? Is everything wrapped? Is your tree up? Are all your travel plans set in stone? Do you have to ship anything this year? Have you planned the Christmas menu? Why was Tumblr down so long? Am I stressing […]

  I realize it’s December and we’re supposed to be eating casseroles and holiday cookies and drinking eggnog. I know. And I try. But this summer Aaron surprised me with dinner one evening and I’ve not been able to get the meal out of my mind. I’ve asked him a bazillion times since then to […]

December Comfort

With weather like this I have 3 words for you: Shredded Chicken Chili. I mean, is there really anything more to say? You know me, of course there is!  A blazing fire, a bottle of red wine, warm blankets, wool socks, a good movie, a hot shower, a snuggly puppy, an abundance of questions for […]

A Wok Down Memory Lane

tumblr_lcq74kLO7L1qdz03r

I remember growing up during my teenage years in Hobbs, New Mexico, on a very flat street in the middle of the desert. My dad spent many a night tossing different meats and veggies around the stir-fry wok. He loved and I mean loved to stir-fry for the family. Mom got a break and it […]
