I'm an avid cookbook collector. I've been collecting old, new and local cookbooks for years now. I've got an entire bookshelf, two tubs, and two small drawer stands full of cookbooks. There are two cookbooks that stand out as superior in my eyes: Taste of Home and Gooseberry Patch. I especially love Gooseberry Patch cookbooks.… Continue reading Speedy Stroganoff
Pickled Pepper Dip
My best friend Bekah told me to make some more dips for TikTok, so of course I had to oblige. I'm with her, too. I LOVE dips. I love dipping things like carrots, pita chips and tortillas in different dips. It's one of my favorite appetizers. One easy dip that's a crowd pleaser is this… Continue reading Pickled Pepper Dip
Chicken & Stuffing Dumpling Soup
Ok y'all, this recipe is a whacky one, so stay with me. I felt like some chicken and dumplings the other day but I wanted to make them *different*.

Honey Buffalo Chicken Strips
Every couple of months or so, a debate rages inside my newsroom. It's not a debate about politics, sports or even news for that matter. It's a debate about who has the best fast food chicken strips. I'm a steadfast fan of Golden Chick, Chicken Express and Zaxby's. Half of the newsroom swears by Raising… Continue reading Honey Buffalo Chicken Strips

I've got quite a bit of wild onion and garlic growing in my backyard. I haven't been brave enough to… Continue reading French Onion Potatoes

And yet fresh herbs always seem to go to waste in my kitchen. I always need fresh basil, parsley or dill for… Continue reading Green Goddess Chicken Salad

Crawfish and Rice Casserole
It's almost Mardi Gras!! Being an honorary Cajun, I try to make something for Mardi Gras every year. I've never lived in Louisiana, but I have family there (Alexandria) and my aunt lived in Monroe for a while when I was a teenager. I have a deep love for Louisiana and all of its people… Continue reading Crawfish and Rice Casserole
Barbecue Oven-Roasted Potato Salad
I've been testing out potato salad recipes lately trying to find one that I like. My family potato salad, which I posted years ago, is increasingly challenging to make. Not because it's a hard recipe, but because there's an ingredient that is almost impossible to find in the grocery store: green onion dip mix. If… Continue reading Barbecue Oven-Roasted Potato Salad
