A quick trip to Kansas was in store for Rob & I this last weekend. Rob's best friend was getting married, so we drove up on Friday to make it to the rehearsal and wedding on Saturday. Though we didn't stay for long, it was nice to take a few days off and go somewhere,… Continue reading Spinach & Mushroom Breakfast Pie

Cherry Pie Cookies
Good news, guys. I didn't get botulism! It's now been over 24 hours, so I think I'm good. I'm breathing a sigh of relief. If you want to read why I thought I would get botulism, click here. Since I'm botulism free (I think), I'm celebrating by eating all the good stuff. My coworker brought… Continue reading Cherry Pie Cookies
Green Chili Pork Frito Pie
When my station brings food to a work party, we go all out. Case in point: Our Super Bowl work party. I brought cheeseburger party sliders and mini bagel breakfast sandwiches (we do work the early, early morning shift, you know). Another coworker brought crockpot queso, brown-sugar bacon wrapped lil' smokies, homemade cookies, pigs in… Continue reading Green Chili Pork Frito Pie
Eggs Benedict Quiche
There are a lot of utensils and cooking techniques that have disappeared from the American kitchen over the last few decades. When was the last time you actually used a metal sifter to sift flour for a cake? Or used a double broiler to melt chocolate? Have you ever even used a manual masher to… Continue reading Eggs Benedict Quiche
Lamb & Mint Hand Pies
I know my way around luxurious food. Lobster, duck, filet mignon, pate---even foie gras---I've tried my fair share of expensive haute cuisine. It's not that I'm rich, I just like to try new things and different restaurants that have 5-star chefs cooking in the kitchen. I've never tried to make any of those things, though.… Continue reading Lamb & Mint Hand Pies
Country Chicken & Bacon Pot Pie
I don't know if you've noticed a shift in the recipes I've been posting lately, but we're finally starting to move away from sandwiches, salads and cool dinners. Fall is right around the corner, and I'm more ready than ever. Even better? Squash September starts on Friday...my unofficial welcome to the cooler months. Acorn, butternut,… Continue reading Country Chicken & Bacon Pot Pie
Country Breakfast Pie
I've discovered that I don't post very many breakfast recipes on here. It's not because I don't love the most important meal of the day, it's just that I don't make very many breakfast dishes. My normal breakfast (that I eat at 10 o'clock at night, by the way) is a 100 calorie English muffin… Continue reading Country Breakfast Pie
Corned Beef Hash Quiche
Everybody has guilty pleasures. Guilty pleasure TV shows (Keeping Up with the Kardashians, anyone?), movies, books---and food. Guilty pleasure foods are some of the more interesting in the world. I can still eat a cold hot dog with ketchup just like when I was a kid. I know some people who's guilty pleasure is baby food.… Continue reading Corned Beef Hash Quiche
Louisville Triple Crown Pie
When I was in the fourth grade, we had to do a project about what we wanted to be when we grew up. What did I want to be? A jockey. I wanted to be a jockey. Poor fourth grade me didn't realize I had already far surpassed the height restriction (I'm 6 foot tall… Continue reading Louisville Triple Crown Pie
Pumpkin Pie Cake
It's Christmas Eve, and I'm sitting here sipping on some eggnog and listening to Tchaikovsky's The Nutcracker by the London Symphony Orchestra on our brand new soundbar---underneath the glow of the white Christmas lights. One could say I adore Christmas, no? It's my favorite holiday, one that I celebrate for almost the entire month of November… Continue reading Pumpkin Pie Cake
