Like it or not we are still, even here in the South, smack dab in the middle of soup season. If you’re like me then you’re probably pretty thrilled about it; if you’re like my husband you’re counting down the days to grilling season like your life depends on it. He loves a good bowl of soup, but grilling speaks to him. Me ... continue reading...
36 Weeks
HOW FAR ALONG ARE YOU? 36 weeks and 1 day – can you believe we’ll be technically full-term next week?! GENERALLY FEELING: Truth? Y'all...I am so tired. So stinking exhausted, all the time. Maybe not the first few hours in the morning, but for most of the day you can pretty much bet I'm ready to fall asleep at any given moment. And it's not that I'm in a bad mood - the opposite actually - but momma is TIRED. Did I mention tired? SHOWING? HA! Don't make me laugh. I'm so ... continue reading...
What’s For Dinner
Good morning everyone! Want to know something? I totally had this post planned for yesterday, but then Nate and I binge-watched the newest season of House of Cards and, well, it didn't happen. That show - I hate that I love it! But nonetheless, here I am today, right? Truth be told I've been feeling really uninspired food-wise, which has led me to actually start using Pinterest for our meal planning lately. We've run into some duds, but more than anything a lot of great meals that ... continue reading...
My Ultimate Meatball Sandwich
For the longest time I was the absolute biggest fan of Subway's meatball subs. The chewy bread wrapping so perfectly around meatballs and an almost pizza-like sauce, all warm and melty and good - I mean, y'all? I couldn't get enough! Not to mention that at the time I worked next door to a Subway restaurant and smelled bread baking all. day. long. Wanna know a secret? We used to just go get bread with bacon and cheese melted on it. Oh, the days of college-aged ... continue reading...
Champagne Shallot Vinaigrette
Oh my word y'all, I am D R E A M I N G big time of summer these days. And by these days I mean the past week where I've only left the house a handful of times thanks to the crazy ice storm that has swept through the South. I'm so very thankful that we haven't lost power, but living in the hills of Arkansas makes for some interesting travel options when ice comes around. Plus I've started my seeds for our garden this year and I keep staring at them every day waiting til the moment I ... continue reading...
Story’s Fourth Day
Four years ago today was the worst day of my life. It was the day that my body officially lost the body of a child that we had fallen so deeply in love with over the course of 3+ months. I still remember the way I felt that the world should stop turning because of the pain of that loss; the anger I felt because other people were allowed to go about their regular lives while ours were being ripped apart. I remember sitting in the doctor's office and loathing the fact that other women ... continue reading...
Peach Pie Bars – for TWO!
Oh y'all. I really really can't even talk enough about my new favorite cookbook EVER, which just happens to be from one of my favorite people on the planet. Not only is dessert for two a fantastic concept - I mean really, instant portion control? YES PLEASE. But in addition to that? The recipes are phenomenal, time-tested, beautifully photographed and written with so much of Christina's sweet and hilarious personality that it feels like she's right there holding your hand through ... continue reading...
Twice-Baked Sweet Potato with Baked Egg
Do you ever have a feeling where you see how every moment leading up to that current second in time just fits? Where you can see that, even in the midst of uncertainty and the craziness of life, you are exactly who you're supposed to be and doing exactly what you need to be doing? I had a moment like that yesterday while I was in the middle of piecing together our two boys' rooms. There was a lot of folding and organizing and shifting things around, and in the process of doing all ... continue reading...
Lemon Meringue Pie Cupcakes
Do you believe in miracles? Because I do, and there's a beautiful girl that I've met through blogging whose faith and journey has only reinforced that belief. On July 1, 2014 Madison sent a request out into the world asking for prayer. After having gone through two devastating miscarriages, she was once again pregnant and the prognosis - from a medical standpoint - didn't look good. Still, she felt a pull on her heart to put off a D&C, wait a few days ... continue reading...
Coeur a la Creme with Strawberry Sauce and Chocolate Ganache
Happy Galentine's Day y'all! A day for girly desserts, a little wine (well, for some of us), and a lot of telling our friends how much they mean to us. I love getting to celebrate Valentine's Day with my husband, but the reality is that I love the idea of using this little holiday "season" to really celebrate all the people we love. And you know what? I stinking love my girlfriends. Truth be told I've had a lot of friends in my life, but I've never had a camaraderie ... continue reading...
Balsamic-Honey Marinated Salmon
This post is sponsored by De Nigris vinegar; all opinions are my own. When it comes to flavor one of my favorite ingredients ever to use is vinegar. It's tangy and delicious, imparting flavor you can only ever get from vinegar itself. Although I'm a big fan of creating marinades for all varieties of meat and poultry, one thing I had never tried was marinating fish - and y'all? For the life of me I don't know why. I suppose I just feared that I'd marinade it too long and end up with ... continue reading...
My $5 Mantle Makeover
Have I mentioned that I'm completely, totally, utterly obsessed with Fixer Upper? My friend Emily kept talking about how great it was and that the couple is hilarious and the style is fantastic...but all I heard was that it's on HGTV and I totally tuned out. See, we're on a budget, and a fairly strict one at that. In the same way that I need to ignore 99% of Pinterest, it's very very safe to say that I should probably stay away from all shows that encourage the general purchasing of ... continue reading...
