Sometimes when I’m cooking and the food is in the pan or skillet or pot or whatever and it looks so lovely, all simmering with merriment and mirth, and then I transfer the food to a bowl or plate to serve, and somehow it transforms from a thing of beauty and wonder to a pile […]
Sometimes in life ya just gotta stuff things in other things. I think for us women it obviously started at a young age, when we dutifully learned to stuff our, ahem, bras. And then it was basically mayhem from there. If there is something to stuff, we’ll stuff it. Give me that purse. I WILL […]
So you know how we went to Arkansas last weekend for the holiday and I got that enormous tree log splinter stuck in my thigh? Well I have good news. We got the splinter out. And then we made cheese. And the cool thing was, the very tools and chemicals we used to get the […]
How annoying am I about to be. I have TROIS BILLION THINGS to show you. But before we go on, I have some good news to share. I got my glasses fixed! And, I’m utterly perplexed at how they managed to make this happen. I go in, I hand my glasses over to the lady, […]

First of all, thank you guys sooooo so much for your texts, tweets, comments, emails, and calls yesterday. I just can’t tell you how cared for that made me feel. I wish I could just scoop you all up and put you in my purse. But I’d try and space you out because I wouldn’t […]
I’ve been waiting my whole life to show you this recipe. Well, 4 days, but that can feel like a lifetime for a person like me. I’ve actually been waiting my whole life to MAKE this recipe, as it originally hails from bestie Laura and is stuffed and adorned with 14 cups of glorious cheese. […]
Now, before you’re all, “omg she made hatch chile sauce from scratch, you guys!” you need to know, it’s from a can. But this can was sent straight from the pearly green gates of hatch chile heaven.

Last night a girlfriend came over and we ate cheese. A lot of cheese. There was much of the dipping into the cheese. Don’t worry, we ate our vegetables. We coated them in cheese.
