Italian Wedding Soup

Okay, I’m officially in denial. I admit it. Summer is here, and here I am, making soup. I could make some sort of excuse, like drinking hot liquids makes it seem not so hot outside… or that I had leftovers in the fridge that I needed to get rid of… And while both of those excuses… Read More

Whole Wheat Pretzel Rolls

Let me be very clear: whole wheat is my nemesis. Now, I have nothing against whole wheat made by other people. In fact, I prefer it because it’s so much healthier. But when it comes to my own baking, it leaves me completely stumped because it’s so dense. I just cannot, CANNOT make it work,… Read More

Nutella and Creole Cream Cheese Ice Cream Pie

When we tell people that we are living in Louisiana, we usually get one reaction and one reaction only: the head is thrown back, the eyes are lifted to the heavens, and a single sentence emerges from their lips: “Oh my god the FOOD!” This is usually followed by a list of places we HAVE to… Read More

Coconut Chicken Curry (Nightshade Free)

Every good cook knows that the secret to cooking (and life) is spice! The right mix can vault a bland, tasteless dish into the spectacular. Not to mention they’re incredibly good for your health! Salt, the overused villain of the spice world, can reveal hidden flavours with just a dash, nutmeg can transform an Alfredo… Read More

Week 10

Happy Friday! Oh my goodness it's week 10! And welcome to the first 'official' post on the new blog :) This week has been a little crazy around here. I've been debating over hosting for a while, and yesterday decided to do it. It's been a bit of a process figuring everything out, but I'm… Read More

Crispy Crunchy Egg Rolls

I have only two rules for myself when I go to the grocery store: 1) Never go hungry, and 2) always always bring a list. Without these rules, shopping trips can turn into a disaster. My hungry self is VERY ambitious. As I wander the aisles I think of all the delicious things that I… Read More
