Cracking eggs one carton at a time.
Cole slaw is one of those things you either love or hate. If you bring it to a cookout or party, sometimes it will all go fast...or other times people will hardly touch it. When given the choice between slaw or pasta or potato salad, people usually choose the starchier side dish. I've always liked… Continue reading Memphis Coleslaw
The times are changing. Although it's still 90 degrees here in Oklahoma, fall is right behind that warm southernly breeze. My fall decor has already made its appearance. The pumpkin spice candles are burning. I'm digging jackets out of my closet. I'm eating hotter foods and thinking about soups, y'all. Soups. Summer will be out… Continue reading Roasted Broccoli Salad

One of… Continue reading Leen’s Favorite Roasted Cauliflower
It's been a long, fun-filled last two weeks. Rob & I just got home on Tuesday, and after three days back at work I'm back to this lovely corner of the internet I call home. We roadtripped to Montana to meet with my family in Great Falls, traveled to Havre for my uncle's wedding, then… Continue reading Lemon Basil Pasta Salad
Who says potato salad has to only be a side dish? Throw some protein in there and you can eat it for a nice, chill lunch. Or, at least that's what I'm telling myself to make myself feel better for eating a bowl full of carbs for lunch today. My constant experimentation with potato salad… Continue reading BLT Potato Salad
