For my birthday this year, my husband took me on a fishing trip. We trolled Calaveras Lake with Bones Fishing Guide and caught a bunch of fish! We got a limit of redfish, and I had the time of my life. With all the redfish, I wanted to come up with recipes that weren’t just […]

Wild Gobbler Sandwiches
Thanksgiving is one of the best times of the year. Not because of silly things like family and being thankful for what you have, but because of the Gobbler at Wawa! Since there’s no Wawas in Texas, I didn’t know they were a thing until I was in Florida for a soccer tournament. I ended […]
Cranberry Sauce
My poppy was the only one at the Thanksgiving table that would always use/request cranberry sauce. My mom would pop open a can of ocean spray cranberry sauce and serve him that. I remember thinking how gross it looked. I wish he could try this and tell me what he thought. He would have loved […]
Garlicky Mashed Potatoes
If I could sustain a healthy lifestyle with any one food, it would probably be potatoes. And to be more specific, mashed potatoes. I would eat mashed potatoes for breakfast lunch and dinner, and honestly, I do after every Thanksgiving when there is a big bowl of leftovers in the fridge. My favorite mashed potatoes […]
Roasted Turkey Breast
My all-time favorite sandwich meat is turkey. When my dad brought back two turkeys from a hunting trip, I knew I needed to make a solid roasted turkey recipe. You can use this roast turkey on sandwiches, soups, or just eating straight up. This recipe, coupled with my brine recipe, is tender and juicy and […]
Spicy Jalapeño Brine
I adapted this recipe from the cookbook “Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat”. The reviews of this book are actually true, if you are just learning how to cook or if you are a chef in a three-star Michelin restaurant you’ll learn something from it. There is so much useful information in this book, even if it […]
Toomer’s Copycat Lemonade
Who doesn’t love a tall glass of lemonade on a hot summer day? This is especially true if you live in the south. I went to Auburn for college, and while I know everyone doesn’t know about the greatness of Toomer’s Corner…honestly you really should 😊. Rolling Toomer’s Corner (aka throwing toilet paper all over […]
BLTT and Pimento Cheese Sandwich
An easy summer staple is a BLT. Something about it is fresh and delicious, but I decided that wasn’t enough… I decided to add an extra T to that normal everyday BLT. I made a BLTT, or a BLT with some wild (T)urkey breast! Not only was it a BLTT, but it was a BLTT […]
M&M Cookies
This might be the easiest cookie recipe of them all! My husband loves M&M cookies and I think the mini M&M’s are the best. I combined the two and created these super easy cookies. They look great and taste great! The key to getting the super colorful exterior as smooshing a few extra M&M’s on […]
Pimento Cheese
Pimento Cheese is a super southern food that some people might have never of. Pimento cheese is what happens when cream cheese and shredded cheese make a baby. And boy is it good. I went to school at Auburn University. If you have ever been, you know about Toomer’s Drugstore. Toomer’s makes the most delicious […]
