My dear friend Kendall is having a baby today, maybe even as I write this. It was scheduled which is how I know it could be happening right now. I am currently hanging out with her first son Kevin before I take him to camp, and then I will pick him up this afternoon and [...]

Pinterest always makes me hungry. I love looking at the wonderful food photography and all of the recipes are great. I did read a really funny quote from DJ Joe Kelly about all of the food photography that is constantly on facebook and pinterest. He said: “Remember the old days…when you used to have dinner…then [...]
I do love a good biscuit- piping hot and steamy. It can be the perfect breakfast- you really don’t need much else. Fortunately, my wonderful husband makes amazing biscuits- not nearly as often as I would like, but when he decides to make biscuits, they are a work of art. We are heading up to [...]
It has been an eventful week in our house with Walker out of school. I took him fishing with a friend on Tuesday where he caught one red fish, two blue fish, two baby sharks, six big sharks and the biggest stingray I have ever seen. Needless to say we did not swim in the [...]

Now that it is finally getting warm out and hopefully staying that way, there is nothing more refreshing on a hot day than the taste of lemon. For some reason to me, the taste of lemon always seems cool. This is a great recipe for a glazed lemon bread which is really a dessert, but [...]
Growing up the words grits and hominy were interchangeable. There was no difference between the two, and it has only been recently that I found out there actually was a difference. It was actually brought up last night as a topic of conversation preceding dinner. What is the difference between grits and hominy. The answer [...]
