Chocolate Filled Pecan Shortbread Sandwich Cookies

Kelly — Mon, 14 May 2012 15:52:39 +0000

May and June are all about travel. My first bit or travel has come and gone. I spent a weekend in the mountains of California eating, drinking, learning, and making friends at Camp Blogaway! It was my first year to attend, and I had the distinct honor of speaking on the subject of Beating Blogger [...]

Tex-Mex Scalloped Potatoes

Creamy potatoes, smothered in cheese, are my idea of heaven. April has been a super busy month for me. I was hired to do the photography for a cookbook and my deadline is the 30th. So, while I have been very busy in the kitchen lately, almost all of it is for the photography project [...]

Blueberry Maple Drop Biscuits

Nothing beats a well made biscuit. When I first started to get interested in cooking I spent a lot of time learning about southern comfort foods. I was raised by two generations of Texas women who grew up on southern food, so the food of my childhood leaned heavily toward traditional, stick-to-your-ribs fare. Biscuits were [...]

Chocolate Chip Cardamom Oat Blondies

I have been something of a baby lately. As you may know, I have been on a medical scavenger hunt for almost two months now. I have already endured numerous tests, trips to the emergency room, and visits to doctors and specialists. For as long as I can remember I have hated doctors. I may [...]

Creamy Chile con Queso

“In Texas you can buy happiness. People generally order it as an appetizer. It’s called queso.” – @TexasHumor It is supposed to be a joke, but I find that chile con queso can, in actual fact, make most people quite happy! It may just be a Texas thing, but whenever people gather to have a [...]

Chocolate Glazed Coconut Cream Puffs

Kelly — Mon, 12 Mar 2012 17:16:28 +0000

No matter the problem, I feel like cream puffs are always the solution. With February firmly behind me I was really looking forward to a new month not riddled with medical issues for both me and my family. We did not get off to an encouraging start, with my husband battling a hacking cough and [...]

Cinnamon Pecan Swirl Monkey Bread

Kelly — Wed, 29 Feb 2012 17:26:52 +0000

Happy Leap Day! February has been one bitch of a month for me personally, so to celebrate the end of it I decided to bake something really, really naughty. I was inspired by monkey bread, a heavenly concoction of cinnamon sugar covered dough that is baked in a sticky brown sugar and butter sauce. The [...]

Mini-Cheddar Corn Dogs

Kelly — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 22:44:56 +0000

I know, the ‘Big Game’ is this weekend … but I have a shocking confession to make. I kind of don’t like football. We are a hockey family which means we love the quick pace, the action, the inevitable bout of teeth shattering fisticuffs, and the blare of the goal horn when someone tips the [...]
