I work in local television news. I've been in this industry for more than 10 years, and at my current job for almost 8 years. Since I work in news, I've got to keep up with the news.

Cheesy Garlic Roasted Asparagus
The time has come. After months of 60 degree weather, no snow in sight---we're finally getting a winter storm. It may not seem like much, but after more than a year without snow, I can all but guarantee Oklahoma is NOT prepared for the 4-6 inches we might get tonight. But I'm ready for it.… Continue reading Cheesy Garlic Roasted Asparagus
Cauliflower Antipasto
Raw caulifower and I go way back. Wayyy back. I've always preferred veggie trays that included raw cauliflower.

I love that my local grocery store has a little fresh olive bar in the produce section. I bought a handful of super green olives yesterday, and they may be the best I've ever had.

And… Continue reading Stuffed Poblano Breakfast Bake

When our ship docked at 8 a.m. on a Saturday, Rob and I decided to explore the city and stay the night before our long journey home the next day. I… Continue reading Shrimp & Roasted Red Pepper Pasta

Another long week down in the books. Woooo. Between work, getting our engagement/Save-The-Date pictures done, and finding a wedding venue, this weekend has been a welcome relief. Oh, yeah, here's how those pictures turned out: Love them! We're using a painted pumpkin picture for our Save the Date flyers. I can't wait. After our shoot, we decided to… Continue reading Balsamic Roasted Pork and Vegetables
Roasted Corn Maque Choux
Have you ever scratched yourself so hard you bled? That's currently the situation I'm in right now. Times a hundred. Before you tune out...let me explain. Last Friday, my reporter and I were working on a special story outside of Springer, Oklahoma. This little town is about an hour and a half south of OKC… Continue reading Roasted Corn Maque Choux
