Kit Kat Cups

February 28, 2013

I should be writing this post, but you know what?  I’m so not paying attention because I’ve got chocolate in one hand, tea in the other, and I’m kind of watching a video with two of my favorite things.   Babies.  And dogs.  MY HEART AND MY UTERUS ARE ABOUT TO EXPLODE. That’s a weird [...]

The Mommy Within

February 27, 2013

I love being a mom.   You guys probably already know this from my constant chit-chat about how sweet our boy is, how much fun he is, and so on, but I just can’t even begin to describe how much I love being a mother.   My sister and I are 4.5 years apart, and [...]

Garlicky Cauliflower, Kale and Avocado Puree with Caramelized Mushrooms

February 26, 2013

Y’all. This is good – like really, really good. And TOTALLY something that you can eat a LOT of without feeling guilty by any means! I mean, I used a bit of butter to caramelize my mushrooms, but you can make it completely vegan by just switching the fat you use. GOOD.  SO SO SO [...]

Starbucks Knock-Off Chai Tea Latte

February 25, 2013

I want to be real with you guys: I am having some serious margarita cravings lately (I blame Jessica, Deb, and my true-blue Texas roots). Sure, it’s still wintery and there are snow storms and ice storms and cold winds galore, but all I see is that warm (nay, HOT) weather is right around the [...]

Baja Chicken Napoleon and Cheesy Baked Potato Chips

February 24, 2013

This is the kind of recipe combo that reminds me of sweet Sundays after church in the Spring. We’d get home, all go change into play clothes, and open all the windows to let the sunshine pour in. It was always just a TAD chilly before the sun started to warm the house, and we’d [...]

Story’s Day

February 23, 2013

This is me (in the middle), two years ago when I was pregnant with Story. I was blissfully unaware of the fate that would befall that sweet and beautiful little baby – I had no idea that I would shortly after be mourning the loss of that sweet life. Two years ago today was what [...]

Sriracha and Brown Sugar Almonds

February 22, 2013

I feel like I may – just maybe – use the word “addiction” a little too much.  To the point that should I do or eat or say or watch anything two times in a row, well HOLDTHEPHONE, it’s got to be an addiction. SIDE NOTE: I just looked up the true definition for the [...]

Velvety Roasted Potato Soup {Vegan}

February 21, 2013

As I write this I’m literally in total fear that we are going to have yet another power outage. Don’t get me wrong, I’m loving living in Arkansas.  I like the weather and the fact that the winters don’t make my skin want to boycott the rest of my body due to the dryness.  Really, [...]

Being His Cheerleader

February 20, 2013

Some of you may not be my friend after I say this, but I’ve never been a fan of cheerleaders.  It’s not the specific PEOPLE that I’m not a fan of, but rather the fact that I grew up playing volleyball and basketball and I happen to be kind of petty at times.  Trust me, [...]

Weeknight Braised Red Cabbage

February 19, 2013

WARNING:  If you don’t like cabbage, then I can’t promise you’ll love this dish.  You know, seeing as how it’s all cabbage.  I still think you should try it though – you never know if you’ll fall in love! BUT!  If you are a cabbage lover, you will adore this!  One thing I really like [...]
