Imagine you are stranded on a deserted island. There's not a soul around, it's just you, a coconut, and a bag full of food. The food can be anything you choose, but it's the only thing you will be able to eat for the rest of your life. What is it? For me, it's a… Continue reading Beer Brats with Red Cabbage

Falafel Pita with Pea & Mint Hummus
I've been taking the time to make meatless meals every so often. I'm a big meat eater. We're constantly going through chicken, pork and beef. I'm also a firm believer in switching up your meals. I'll eat tofu (sparingly, my body doesn't really like soy), salads for dinner and other meatless options when I just… Continue reading Falafel Pita with Pea & Mint Hummus
Chicken & Mango Rainbow Wraps
Hello all! It's been a whirlwind last few weeks. I found myself up at the station working 12 hour days for nearly 8 days straight last week. I was only sleeping and working--nothing in between. Along with my super-heavy workload right now, we're also in the process of buying a house. Yes, a house! I'm… Continue reading Chicken & Mango Rainbow Wraps
Tex Mex Chicken & Zucchini Skillet
Creativity is key when going on a special diet. If you don't experiment and create new recipes, you'll fall down the rabbit hole of making the same thing over and over again. I find myself really having to dig deep into my cookbook collection for inspiration on new keto recipes. After a year on-and-off of… Continue reading Tex Mex Chicken & Zucchini Skillet
Balsamic Asparagus Pasta Salad
One of the first road trips Rob & I ever took was less than a year after we first started dating. We went down south, way down south, to the most southwestern point of Oklahoma: McCurtain county. We were there to go to the Museum of the Red River and see an Oklahoma-found dinosaur, the… Continue reading Balsamic Asparagus Pasta Salad
Roasted Cauliflower & Chorizo Burritos
I've been in such a sleep deprived, stress-induced stupor lately that I completely blew through a construction zone on my way to the gym yesterday. Luckily, a motorcycle cop didn't miss it. He had to pull out in front of me to get me to stop, then pulled me over into a parking lot. How… Continue reading Roasted Cauliflower & Chorizo Burritos
Shrimp & Scallop Spring Pasta
It was a wild night in Oklahoma last night... Severe weather season has officially begun! Storms rollicked across the state, packing a major punch. No tornadoes in OKC, but really high winds caused a ton of damage, especially to State Fair Park. The Centennial Arch, built in the 1970's, didn't survive. There was supposed to be a… Continue reading Shrimp & Scallop Spring Pasta
Creative Blogger Award
So...I was nominated for an award. For my blogging. I can't believe it! After spending nearly three years in this little cooking corner of the world wide web, I have some sort of recognition. I can't thank Kristy over at Palatable Adventures enough for this honor. She has amazing blogging prowess, takes beautiful pictures, and posts… Continue reading Creative Blogger Award

Coming Up This Week: April 8th
This week marks the first week on my new shift at the station. I now work a NORMAL PERSON'S SHIFT! I've also gotten a chance to work with some fantastic reporters on some great stories. I still get to work with my favorite reporter, so that's good news, too! I spent one whole day at the… Continue reading Coming Up This Week: April 8th
