Hope everyone enjoyed the long weekend! It was only about 75 degrees in Enid yesterday, so I guess summer might actually really be over. Tear. We spent the weekend in Dallas, which was SO nice. Real civilization was awesome. Real food, real shopping, real people. Love. I didn’t really want to come back. Since we…
Chicken Tamale Casserole
I made this recipe early last week, but am only just now finding the time to post it! It was one heck of a whirlwind week. Why? Tops in Blue! Tops in Blue is a group of amazingly talented Air Force members that travels around the world singing, dancing and putting on awesome shows! Vance…
Crunchy Onion Chicken Fingers
Happy Friday! Here’s a quick and easy, but super delicious one! One of the things in my Mom’s ingredient goodie box was a can of French’s french fried onions. I don’t usually use the recipes on food packages, but I really had no idea what to do with french fried onions aside from making green bean casserole….
Southern Banana Pudding
I sometimes say that I lived in the South for 2 years. I think it might be debatable whether or not Florida is really considered the true South. In the 2 years I lived there, I only met a very small handful of people who were actually born and raised in Florida. I met people…
Revolutionary Berries
Happy 4th of July Weekend!! These berries are all dressed up for the occasion! The people who lived in our house before us apparently don’t care about any of their mail, because they never changed their address. Besides bank statements and medical bills (which I finally returned to the mailman after weeks of throwing them…
Okra, Corn and Black Eyed Pea Salad
Bear with me a moment, I’m about to get a little Southern on you all. I can’t help it. I’ve been here too long. Okra and black eyed peas… two foods I don’t think I ever had until I moved to the South, but now I love them both. This weekend we went to a…
Apple Jack Quesadillas
As someone who hates to waste food, I’ve been doing a pretty good job of cleaning out the fridge and freezer before our move, especially considering I only had about a week’s notice to halt all food shopping. You’d think it would be quite difficult to eat at home when all your stuff is packed,…
Shrimp Tacos with Mango Salsa
I’m really excited to share this recipe because it’s super simple, so easy, relatively healthy and SO yummy. I’ve made it once before this, and it might be one of my favorite things I’ve ever made. The only reason I haven’t repeated it sooner is because mangos have been hard as rocks for the past 6…
