Hello, all! It's been a hot minute since my last post. There's good reason for that...or, actually, a bad reason for that: I had coronavirus. I've been bed-ridden for more than a week and only just now started to feel better. I'm one of the lucky ones, though. I had a relatively mild case and… Continue reading Italian Beef Stew

French Onion Chicken Pasta
When I cook and shoot pictures of my meals, I use 2 different SD cards. One is in my camera at all times, the other is usually in my computer. I switch them out when I need to get pictures off the other.That means I have pictures of meals on some of these cards that… Continue reading French Onion Chicken Pasta
Steakhouse Spinach Salad
I've been perusing my enormouse collection of old cookbooks lately hoping something will inspire me. After scrolling through Pinterest for so long, all of the recipes start to look the same. My vast collection of cookbooks, though, is full of endless opportunities. I've got cookbooks from WWII, from the 60's, from celebrities like Vincent Price… Continue reading Steakhouse Spinach Salad
Copycat Olive Garden Salad
It's been a fun, boring, adventurous and relaxing weekend. I took Thursday and Friday off so my weekend was extended by two days. We're about to go into a ratings month at work and I like to have downtime before the big stress begins. I did nothing on Thursday but bingewatch Grey's Anatomy and vacuum… Continue reading Copycat Olive Garden Salad
Garlic Chicken & Spinach
One of my favorite kitchen gadgets is my silver fish. No, not the bug you find under boxes in your garage. I literally have a silver fish that sits on my sink. What's it used for? Getting terrible smells off your fingers. I'm talking garlic and onion smells. It sticks to your fingers, especially if… Continue reading Garlic Chicken & Spinach

If you're baking… Continue reading Grilled Ham and Mushroom Po’Boy
German Rice Salad
I've got German food that runs through my blood. My mom's side of the family was very German. Think last names like Schiwart and Knippa. My grandma grew up on a small North Texas farm and learned how to make some of the best German food around. We eat egg noodles for Thanksgiving and Christmas.… Continue reading German Rice Salad
Brussels Sprouts & Smoked Sausage Salad
Targeted ads on my social media feeds here lately have really gotten to me. Ad agencies are getting better and better at getting me to buy things, and social media ads are no joke. I can count at least 3 times this past month where I exclaimed, "I've GOT to have that" while scrolling past… Continue reading Brussels Sprouts & Smoked Sausage Salad
Denver Omelette Egg Muffins
Denver omelettes are the quintessential breakfast for Midwesterners. If I'm not ordering traditional Eggs Benedict, you can catch me perusing the omelette section of any breakfast menu for that delightful omelette. There's just something about it that calls me back each and every time. Denver omelettes are simple: ham, bell pepper and onion. That's it,… Continue reading Denver Omelette Egg Muffins
Chicken Philly Cheesesteak Stuffed Peppers
There's a restaurant in downtown OKC that holds a special place in my heart: Texadelphia. I'm pretty sure it's a regional chain, and several restaurants can be found in Texas. There used to be one in Norman when I first moved down here 7 years ago, too, but it unfortunately shut down. Texadelphia was one… Continue reading Chicken Philly Cheesesteak Stuffed Peppers
