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 [...]
I think we got about eight inches of snow overnight. Some of you may read that and say, ‘So what?’ So plenty! You see, this is Dallas and in these parts even the lightest dusting of the white stuff can bring our bustling metropolis to a screeching halt. Imaging what four days of ice, topped [...]
Over the weekend I went to Food Blog South, a celebration of Southern food and Southern bloggers. This first time conference was, overall, a wonderful experience and I highly recommend those interested in the food culture of the South to consider attending their next event. Our lunch during the conference was a favorite of mine [...]

I am developing an obsession with tacos. A few weekends ago my husband and I spent a VERY long afternoon at Mayfest, an art and sports fair, where I was preforming with my belly dance class. Did I say it was a long day? By the time I was finished I was hot, dusty, blistered, [...]
I joined a CSA in my area at the beginning of the Fall. So far the harvest has not been prolific. In fact, in the two months I have been a member I have gotten one delivery. Not awesome. Buried in the delivery was a terrific surprise! Lovely, shiny eggplants! I decided to [...]
Before we get to the food, and we shall, I have some exciting news! Evil Shenanigans has been nominated for the first annual Foodbuzz Awards for Best Recipe Blog! You can see the other nominees, and vote if you like, here. Voting is open until October 29th. I want to thank everyone who nominated me. You have no [...]
I love easy meals that look and taste like a million bucks. I can make this meal in thirty minutes or less, it tastes great, and it is nice enough for weeknight guests. Bonus! During the week I refuse to fry, so when I want something super crunchy I turn to my oven and panko [...]
