Cracking eggs one carton at a time.
It's officially fall, y'all! Granted, my fall decor has been up since the beginning of August. What can I say? I love fall. I've been adding more fall decor here and there, including this spark of craftiness I had yesterday... Rob and I spent a lot of the day cleaning our house and going through… Continue reading Creamy Cajun Chicken Spaghetti Squash
The skies opened up this morning and dumped gallons and gallons of rain on OKC. The dreary and cold Spring morning was just what the doctor ordered. We're still recovering from devastating wildfires out west, and our rain this "storm season" has been anywhere close to where it needs to be for this time of… Continue reading Shrimp & Lentil Jambalaya

Last Friday, my reporter and I were working on a special story outside of Springer, Oklahoma. This little town is about an hour and a half south of OKC… Continue reading Roasted Corn Maque Choux
I'm here to make the case for eating imported (Indochinese farmed) catfish. I know what you're thinking. You've probably always grown up on U.S. born and bred catfish...and there is probably nothing better than catching a catfish yourself and eating it, sure. But in case you've never heard of Swai, or you've steered clear of… Continue reading Blackened Catfish with Cajun Remoulade
