Cracking eggs one carton at a time.
I have to get something off my chest: I loathe melons. Watermelon and honeydew. Gross. I'd rather eat a handful of rocks than those two fruits. And don't even get me started on cantaloupe; that stuff was truly sent to earth by the devil. Cantaloupe has always been on my relatively short 'Do Not Eat'… Continue reading Peach Berry Summer Fruit Salad
Fresh, crispy vegetables. Sweet, ripe tomatoes. Grilled chicken. Summer is finally here, y'all, and I'm loving it. I'm sure in about 2 weeks I'll be completely over the wicked Oklahoma heat, but for now---I'm soaking up the sunshine, what little of it I actually see. I love summer produce. Everything from squash to cucumbers, tomatoes… Continue reading Chicken Bruschetta Zoodles
We're now less than a month away from our nearly two week long vacation. I. Cannot. Wait. I am seriously in need of a good decompress time. Work has been hectic and my allergies have been wreaking havoc on my body. Rob and I will drive the 20+ hours to my parents in Montana, attend… Continue reading Summer Squash Frittata

I guess it was inspired by the Cinco de Mayo holiday last weekend, and it's just continued from there. Most of the Mexican food I make is a… Continue reading BBQ Chicken & Sweet Potato Layered Enchiladas
Rob and I ate at a Chinese buffet for lunch yesterday. I used to be obsessed with Chinese buffets when I was a kid through college, but hadn't been to one in nearly three years. Now I know why. Y'all. I felt like complete crap afterwards! I stuffed myself to the brim with crab rangoon… Continue reading Chicken Fajita Bowls
Rob and I held our first dinner party as a married couple last weekend for Cinco de Mayo. I was up early that Saturday (which is normal) and prepared for our meal: a taco bar with my delicious honey-lime poblano chicken tacos and regular beef. All of the fixings were pre-cut that morning: lettuce, tomato,… Continue reading Piña Colada Tres Leches Cake
