Happy Fat Tuesday, y'all. Mardi Gras is here and I'm celebrating like an honorary Cajun, despite living smack-dab in the middle of Oklahoma. I have family from Alexandria and my aunt used to live in Monroe, and my heart and soul belong to Louisiana. It's one of my most favorite places in the world because… Continue reading Savory Crawfish Cornbread

Baked Banana Blueberry Oatmeal
I've taken some time off over the last few weeks while my family was down here in Oklahoma. When I left this little corner of the internet, it was a mild spring-like environment down here in the Sooner state. When I returned, it was like I was entering the fiery pits of hell. I don't… Continue reading Baked Banana Blueberry Oatmeal

Cranberry Oat Bread
It's a winter wonderland here in Oklahoma right now! Snow about 4-6 inches thick blankets the ground. The temperature is hovering in the 20's with overcast skies. This is my favorite type of weather---and favorite time of year. I'm sure we'll thaw out here pretty soon. Snow doesn't ever stick around for long in this… Continue reading Cranberry Oat Bread
Cherry Eggnog Bread
Baking is not my first passion. It's also not my second, third, or fourth passion. It's not even on my "passion" list at all. I'm not the greatest baker in the world. Even with all the gizmos and gadgets to help in the kitchen, more often than not my baking experiments fail. Cakes come out… Continue reading Cherry Eggnog Bread

Spiced Peach Bread
The dog days of summer are here, and they're here to stay. With that comes hours of languishing pool side, huddling in a dark house to escape the heat, and sweet, sweet peaches. Peaches are probably the most fantastical thing about summer. When those fuzzy round fruits start popping up at the farmer's market and… Continue reading Spiced Peach Bread
Buttermilk Blueberry Muffins
Rob may not like a lot of foods...but if there's one thing he'll eat in mass amounts, it's fruit. I swear, that man can put away some fruit. Apples, oranges, bananas, and berries---you name it. But lord, how the berries will fly when I buy some. I'll look in the fridge one minute, and the… Continue reading Buttermilk Blueberry Muffins
