I don’t know about y’all, but this snow? Enough already.  I mean, it’s almost April, and there’s been snow on the ground here for a week.  I’m over it, I want to wear a sundress, and I’m even willing to shave in order to do it. Yes, really.  That’s a big deal for me. Let’s [...]

I’ve been on a cheesecake tare as of late.  I can’t help it…I just love them. These cheesecakes? Perfection. The ideal size for single servings (that means too small to share, and you are full on allowed to fork stab anyone brazen enough who tried snagging a bite), great creamy flavor and texture, and simple [...]

I love caramel apples.  I hate how messy they make my face, as apparently I never fine tuned the art of eating an apple on a stick, but still…totally worth the drippy face. Of course, I love anything caramel, hot, cold, soft, chewy – makes no difference, I want it.  And combined with apples and [...]

Do you remember when I went to Los Angeles last year to live blog the Dole California Cook Off? I do. It was so much fun.  Crazy amounts of fun.  And not just for me – the contestants were the ones having the time of their lives.  Last year, 3 finalists got their grill on [...]

Five years ago, right after my son Seven was born, I remember being at a Brad Paisley concert, carrying my full sized Canon DSLR.  It was bizarre to me that people down in the pit, or in the high dollar seats were carrying a silly little flip phone to take pictures of a concert they’d [...]

I’ve been thinking of these for quite some time now… Banana Pudding Cheesecakes. When my friends at McCormick asked me to come up with a brunch worthy recipe using their great vanilla and almond extracts, I knew this would be the way to go.  It just had to be done.  So thanks, McCormick, for sponsoring [...]
