Smoked Cheddar Cheese Puffs

Has anyone ever been to a Brazilian restaurant?

I've been to Fogo De Chao in downtown Austin and oh my is it heaven.

Baked Red Snapper with Cilantro Lime Avocado Salsa

I just want to say congradulations to everyone who graduated this weekend!

It's a little weird for me to go on facebook and see all these people graduating that I know but don't really know. Acquaintances if you will.

I would be excited and posting about how graduating is awesome alongside them this year as well.

Coconut Rum Cheesecake

Party time!

I've mentioned before how me and my mom always have a girls weekend when my brothers and dad go hunting or fishing, and this weekend is no exception.

Caramelized Onion and Blue Cheese Tart

I swear i'm turning into a hypochondriac.

The last time I went to the dentist they told me my gums were receding a little on some of my teeth, and lately I swear it's gotten worse. Gross I know.

They didn't have any explanation why they were receding, they just are. Everything else was fine though.

Better Than Movie Theater Popcorn

Do you ever get the craving for movie theater popcorn?

I mean, microwave popped popcorn is good but it just doesn't cut it. 

You gotta pop it in some hot oil and slather a ton of butter and seasonings on popcorn to make it really good! And believe me this stuff is good. I could sit and eat a giant bowl full of this, and have. Don't judge.

Potato Mushroom and Onion Hash

So this past week my mom has been out of town visiting with my grandparents.

My grandpa has been in the hospital a lot lately, very ill, and it's been really hard on my grandma, and the whole family.

White Cheddar Mac and Cheese

Is there anything better than mac and cheese?

Seriously, in my opinion, it is the ultimate comfort food.

Failed Attempts at Orange Marmalade

I don't know what it is but I can't seem to make jams, jellies, or marmalades right. 

I think i'm just too impatient to let it cook long enough so it won't set up right. 

Chocolate Bread Pudding and a Happy Mothers Day!

I love my mom. 

Seriously, she is my best friend. I know a lot of people who aren't very close to their family and it always makes me sad. I've been so blessed to have an amazing supportive family who I can honestly say are my best friends as well.

What I'm Lovin!

What i'm lovin'!

A lot of people seem to do this, just make a list of some of their favorite things at the time are and share it with their followers. So I thought, why not?

Let me know if ya'll like it and if you would want me to continue with these or not.

  WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME?! 

Learning to Bake Your Cake and Eat It Too: Chocolate Coconut Rum Cake

I have a confession...

Food blogging has made me fat.

There I said it! It's out!

Peanut Tofu Noodle Stir Fry

Decisions decisions...

I'm a really bad decision maker. I always over think everything and make it even more complicated than it needs to be. I mean, I've gotten better over the years, but when it comes to big decisions in my life it takes me a while to figure out what to do.

I suppose this is both a good and a bad thing.

Hey Cupcake

Hello hello!

I know i'm a little late hopping on the Hey Cupcake Bandwagon, or bandtruck if you will, but it's better late than never right?

"Taming Tummy Troubles" event by Scott and White Health Centers

Hello everyone!

The gluten free diet craze has skyrocketed recently. It has replaced the whole Atkins Diet and low carb. But it isn't just for people trying to lose weight. Many people have a serious intolerance to gluten, so they literally cannot eat it. 

I have a friend like this, and I always feel so bad! I make cakes and cookies and he can't eat any of it. 

But this is why we're trying to spread the word about it. I urge all of you to go to this event THIS SATURDAY, hosted by Scott and White! I mean, gluten free pancakes you guys. Yum!

Shrimp and Cheddar Grits

I've lived in the south my whole life, but shrimp and grits was never one of those meals we just had all the time.

In fact, the first time I had shrimp and grits was when I made it myself a couple of years ago. Maybe it was because my mom doesn't like seafood, or maybe it's more of a Louisiana creole southern thing instead of a Texas thing.
