Cranberry Orange Cheesecake
If you need a great dessert option for a Christmas Party or family gathering, look no further! This cheesecake is the perfect combination of tart/sweet flavor and WOW factor. I often hear people comment about how difficult it must be to make a cheesecake from scratch and in my opinion that couldn’t be further from…

Ode to OTIS
Please enjoy this story from Jim! One of the sad realities of life is the passing of loved ones, and it is with true sorrow that I must announce that Otis, our prize bull, has left this world. Actually, he was our only bull. At the time of his passing, he was roughly 5 &…

Fresh Honeycrisp Apple Cake
When I originally shared the recipe for this great Fresh Honeycrisp Apple Cake I had never actually taken the time to put the recipe in typical format (ingredient list followed by instructions) and I received lots of questions about details- things like “how do you toast the pecans?” and ” what if the batter seems…

Poblano and Shrimp Corn Chowder
People occasionally ask if a recipe I post is original to me. I suppose they’re wondering if I envisioned it, wrote and tested, then published it.

Hey Hey Etouffee
One thing I learned while living in South Louisiana is that those folks know how to have fun! If it’s not a crab boil, an oyster feast or a crawfish festival, your next door neighbor has made a gumbo and insists that you and the kids come over “right now while the rice is still…

Chili Lime Pork with Corn Salad
Sometimes making dinner is hard. I’ll just throw this out there – sometimes I decide what to cook based almost solely on the number of dishes/utensils/cutting boards/etc that I will have to clean up when it’s all over. There. I said it. Never mind what my people want to eat, sometimes my tired self just…

Cherry Pie Bars
I’ll say up front that I was never a huge fan of cherry flavor. Perhaps it’s because I never tasted fresh cherries growing up, and for most of my life I associated the taste with the cloying smell of cherry flavored Kool-Aid that seemed to be the drink of choice at every kid birthday party,…
