When the people from Stubb’s BBQ Sauce contacted me and asked if I would like to spread the word about their great products, I jumped at the chance because we already use several but when they offered to send me coupons for free product both for me AND for a few of you, I was…

Take-Out Asian Chicken At Home
Originally, my friend and former co-worker Tana wrote this recipe down for me and while her handwriting is great, I lost the recipe in the bottom of a purse and only found the wadded up piece of paper when cleaning it out to use again. I recognized some words as I’ve heard her use them…
Creamy Crockpot Chicken & Rice Amandine Soup
That’s a mouthful isn’t it? But it is all those things and more, if you ask my mom. This is the soup she used to fix when one of us was ill because she thought, since she loved it – we all did too! Truth be told, I only developed a taste for any kind…
Prejean’s Gumbo
October 12 was national gumbo day, giving me an excuse to make the warm comforting dish. I began making it at the request of Lawyer Boy after he spent one summer in Lafayette, La for an internship. His dad and I visited him while he was there and had the pleasure of eating dinner at…
Cornish Hens with Mango Avocado Salsa for #MothersDay #HealthySpring #KitchenIQ
Welcome to my Mother’s Day Healthy Spring Giveaway sponsored by #KitchenIQ! When I was invited to do this giveaway, it was determined we would be calling it Healthy Spring and most of the posts are vegetarian and/or vegan – but this girl was raised around farm animals so healthy means eating chicken instead of beef…
Cajun Chicken Alfredo Pasta
Last Wednesday was my son-in-law’s 33rd birthday. He is such a great guy, I really wanted to do something special for him so I asked Top Girl what his favorite meal might be………..well, it was Korean and his mom has the market cornered on Asian cooking so I asked for his favorite non-Asian meal. She…
No Mess Hot Wings
Do you like hot wings but do not like the sticky wetness of it all? That’s how I am because there is nothing I hate worse than getting my fingers and hands messy but I do love the taste of chicken wings. I have spent the better part of the last two years trying to…
Nana’s Southern Chicken and Dressing
Nana’s Southern Chicken and Dressing “First you boil a chicken”. That’s exactly what you do – of course you could buy a roasted chicken and use canned chicken stock but it will not taste the same. We have strict family rules about our holiday staple and (don’t laugh) here are just a few: 1. While we…
Chicken and Dumplin’s
I haven’t been around for a while but I really have been trying to adjust to having such an active child in the house. It has been such an adjustment for me because Top Girl was so very calm and quiet but Rocket is “all boy” as Mr. Picky Eater says. Running, climbing, jumping, yelling…
Tailgating – BBQ Burritos
Are you ready for some football?!?! This Saturday begins the college season for us and while we are still frantically moving the kids in with us and rearranging the entire house, all will stop for a few hours on Saturday to watch the University of Oklahoma play a game of football. Half the kids are…
