It has been one ill-prepared ice storm after another, here in Oklahoma. And by ill-prepared, I mean the storm itself wasn't prepared. Forecasts, meteorologists, even the National Weather Service warned everyone about impending doom...and then? Nothing. Not a speck of ice. Temperatures would hover in the low 30's, but never dip like they were supposed to. Bread,… Continue reading Curry Kale Chips

I had a coworker who had a miniature one on her desk and I couldn't help but flick it every time I walked… Continue reading Veggie Pinwheels

My palette has definitely expanded over the years, but I still like the simple foods in life. And there's not much… Continue reading Mini Corndog Muffins
