The countdown begins, for real now! Thanksgiving is on Thursday except we are doing ours on Wednesday this year which I’m looking forward too. An actual holiday where I have absolutely nothing to do but lay on my couch, watch football and eat leftovers! This year’s dessert is an Apple Galette. What the heck is a
Jazzed Up Homemade Cranberry Sauce
I’m not sure what is worse! This year that flew by so quick or that ridiculously bad Bronco’s game that I just listened to (I couldn’t watch it was so bad). I’ll tell ya, I have seen better and more exciting high school games. Good thing I took an hour to take the dogs to
Bruschetta with Balsamic Reduction
This week in Colorado has been our “true” first week of Fall which is fitting because it really was the first week of Autumn! Haha! The temperature finally dropped from the very hot 90 degree days to the 60-70’s literally overnight. We got a boatload of rain and lots of grey days this past week! It was actually
Brown Ale Butter Sauce Brisket
Four years ago this week and 215 recipes later, I have been blogging. Wow! That’s crazy for me to imagine and I am so grateful for all the support that I get from my readers and all the folks in the internet world! I couldn’t do it without you, thank you! I can’t wait to
Queso Fundido Burgers
Good morning and Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there! I’m missing my Dad and our annual tradition of watching the US Open together because the lucky guy is in Ireland playing golf with his buddies! I’m so thrilled for him. Ireland, he says, is the place that he always feels like
Carbonara Hollandaise Sauce
A couple of years ago, I stumbled upon Traeger Grills at a Costco road show. I needed a new grill and never had a smoker, let alone smoked any food, so I decided to live on the edge and buy one! Turns out, it was one of the best purchases that I had ever made.
Lobster Deviled Eggs
Here I go again. I totally forget what day it is and a holiday weekend? Forget about it. They always seem to sneak up on me! While we are all out enjoying our weekend, hopefully cranking up the grill, I’m making Lobster Deviled Eggs! Funny, right? I fired my smoker up for a
Lemony Dill Chicken Salad Club Sandwiches
When I was a kid, I wanted to be a meteorologist. I should have gone in that direction. It’s the only career that I know of where you get paid a boatload and you can completely be wrong 90% of the time! It happened again. The weather forecasters completely got the storm wrong! This time,
Bourbon Whiskey BBQ Sauce Ribs
Let me begin by saying that this is NOT a sponsored post by Traeger Grills or Ace Hardware. I am writing this as I am a self proclaimed Traeger Grill addict. It is THE greatest investment that I have ever made in an outdoor grill in my life. I don’t know what my life would be
Jambalaya
Some of you already know but I thought today is the right time to make my big announcement. I accepted a proposal in early January. I have been “engaged”, getting all my ducks in a row, my thoughts organized and all the other nitty gritty taken care of… So as of today, I’m getting married.
