Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr……….! I almost didn’t write today’s Flotsam. This week has been so heavy, so devastating, so crippling, so helpless, so gutting. But I decided this morning, literally right now as I’m changing my mind and still typing these words, that I must keep on. Actions have been made this week. Voices are loud and angry […]
Appetizer time! And it’s 100% no cooking, so get excited. This is a little something we had in Rosemary Beach, when Sarah and I took the kids to La Crema for fondue and tapas. THIS ^^ was our tapas. And it was so delicious I fainted into my portion and woke up 45 minutes later. […]
Here’s a solid vegetarian meal for all those craving it. (!) I’m unabashedly in love with this recipe because a) flavor for days. And b) the simple factor is embarrassing. There’s just so little to do, you can get started on that early summer major closet and drawers purge! Oh, you’re not doing that today? […]
Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrahlalalalalala! Okay, remember Chili’s? The restaurant, of course you do. The chain. Chili’s. It’s like, THE ONE place (hear me out) I think all humanity (don’t block me) can sort of agree on. And that is that we all secretly don’t mind it. We don’t hate Chili’s. And you know why? It’s the skillet queso […]
It’s a side dish! And okay we need to talk about these flowers before you freak. But we before we get there, this is cripplingly delicious. I cannot express it enough. I implore you to make this appetizer or side dish at some point this summer. Yes it requires your oven on, but you’ll be […]
But with ranch. Ranch! Ranch dressing and seasoning. Yes. And it’s slow cooker. Which you might be thinking, “Why the wonk is she using a slow cooker in MAY?” Because hi, it emits no heat. It’s a secret weapon for me when it comes to warmer-weather grub. However, I use it year round and need […]
FRRRRRRRRRRRRRRooloodeedoosoomoo. I need to admit something here in this safe space. Here goes… I have a hard time with dish detergent. Not with it personally! It’s me, not it. But I’m here to say, there are like three loads of dishes during the duration (was that redundant?) of the lifespan of the box that I […]
Crispy plus tender plus vibrant plus fresh. This is our game today. I love this dinner. It’s quite simple even though there looks to be a lot happening here. Thing about it is that you can take bits and pieces from this recipe, twist it up and out, and make different dinners out of it. […]
We’re now entering the summer mixtape playlist songs-in-a-row-on-an-internet-platform era! And this one is exactly that. Every month I get embarrassingly excited about these mixtapes, and I hope you do, too. I always try to pick songs that make you feel something. And maybe it’s something long buried, like the way you feel when you hear […]
FRRRRRRRRRRmastolf! Who invented the whole “guess-what-chicken-butt!” ordeal? Because he needs some firm talkin’ to. Will and Nat are obsessed with it and I’m being sent to an early grave, you guys. But they take it a few steps further. Of course they do. Guess what. Chicken butt! Guess who? Chicken poo! Guess when? Chicken chin! […]
