Two nights ago, Nick killed his first deer of the season! I’ll spare you the photo, though it was actually kind of a weird combination of cute and disgusting. Though I didn’t really enjoy the blood and chunks of… who knows what… all over my carport, I’m sure I won’t be complaining when I have…
Hot Crawfish Dip
Remember that time 9 people peeled 30 pounds of crawfish? Yeah, that was hard work. And recently, in The Great Freezer Crash of 2012, we almost lost some of those babies!

Chipotle Sausage Stuffed Jalapenos
I started brainstorming this recipe because I wanted to enter a recipe contest. The secret ingredient? Chili peppers! I was torn between using fresh peppers or pulling out my yummy chipotle chili powder. So I decided to use both. I’ve been posting my photos and recipes on a site called Food Frenzy for a while…
