This is really one of my favorite meals to fix! I love this meal so much that as I sit and enjoy every bite- I keep thinking how much I would love to walk into a restaurant and order a meal that tastes and looks just like mine! Yum. Yum. Yum.

Our future home will be divided.  My fiance loves the meat and I love the veggies.  We are both accepting of each other's differences and always find a way to compromise!  I can honestly say that we have never had an argument regarding our appetite.  Now that I'm on topic I realize that anything in the category of food has really added to our relationship.

Ahhh, the second day of summer, the perfect seat, good friends, cold beer and a "veggie" dog as I watch my two favorite teams The Reds & Yankees battle out the second game of a double header at the Great American Ball Park. Baseball games go hand in hand with peanuts, beer, nachos and of course the hotdog. Thankfully, vegetarianism and healthy inititatives are becoming more popular.  Now

In a couple of hours I will be meeting my hairstylist Cary for a much needed appointment.  I really want to do something different but I am clueless. Too bad I can't snap  my fingers and get this look.  Love this color!

This weekend I attended a Wedding on Saturday and a Baby Shower on Sunday.  The baby shower was hosted by a friend who happens to be a natural at party planning.  I couldn't resist sharing these photos of the sweet DIY decor and food.

My bf is trying out the 1 month free Netflix online.  I am loving his free trial and hope that maybe he will join the plan.  We are starting to like it better than HBO.  Netflix lets you search and play TV shows, movies, documentaries and so much more.  I just discovered that 111 episodes of Ally Mcbeal were available for viewing on Netflix. Yippee!   So

Tuesday night we ate and grocery shopped here.  We left with some locally grown, organic and fresh produce.  Last night, we decided to cook the baby potatoes and ears of corn.  Everything tasted great but the potatoes were my favorite!

Oh sweet summer, I love you! Everything about the summer seems to be so much brighter and just plain cheery.  All things summer seem to inspire my palate as well.  My list of summer inspirations could make for a new post every day but I just can't resist sharing a few at once. 1. Limes-everything from the mention of a "margarita" in a song to the my bright green purse

I love being trapped inside on a rainy night with nothing to do but cook!  I was reading a Paula Deen cookbook and decided to try this recipe.  http://www.pauladeen.com/paula/  This recipe is very simple and requires basic ingredients that you should already have in the fridge and pantry.  Not only are these super easy to bake, they are super cheap too!&

The BF is from Owensboro so I have attended the last five BBQ Festivals.  This year was the first time I actually saw what the BBQ hype was all about.  We went downtown during the day to walk around and see the cook offs.  Being a vegetarian, I was completely caught off guard by the amount of people cooking meat and the forms of preparation.  The only food I saw being

Water for Elephants is a novel that I could not wait to finish.  I wanted to know the ending so bad that I finished it in two days.   I am not a fan of the circus but the story of life and love by Gruen is fantastic!  Now I am debating on seeing the movie (the books are always better).

I saw this online and thought it would only be appropriate to share.  I would like to download the Vegan Is Easy- which is a free app!  It helps you to distinguish between different ingredients and determine which ones fit your diet.

  So our beloved Wildcats made it to the Final Four for the 1st time in 13 years!!! Of course, I had to celebrate by satisfying my sweet tooth! I chose this recipe because of the short list of ingredients and the affordability.  I am not a baker so this recipe was super easy and very yummy. Candy Bar-Bars were found on BHG's website!

This recipe came from Better Homes and Gardens.  I made a couple of alterations to the recipe by using creole seasoning instead of chili powder, added some cayenne pepper & red pepper, used fat free sour cream, & added 1/4 cup salsa. The recipe made more servings than I expected! It fed myself and 3 others (2 cakes a piece).  There were 6 patties remaining that I

Recently I saw this article pop up on Yahoo titled "10 foods that vegan's can't eat." I am not a vegan.  I have considered becoming vegan many times but I enjoy cooking seafood,  I still use butter and eat the occasional egg.  I gradually try to eliminate more and more food items.   I've only purchased eggs

Yes, jackpot! The last time I remember eating a Pork Chop was in Elementary School.  I observed the making of Pork Chops in my Dad's kitchen many times as they were

Coming home on Sunday from an exhausting weekend of skiing didn't leave me the energy to embark on a grocery trip.  Nor did I want fast food, pizza or the like.  Honestly, standing near the warm stove and playing with spices and food seemed like the perfect way to end my weekend. :) I raided the pantry and settled on a box of mini farfalle pasta, bottle of olive oil

Game day in Kentucky is a really big deal,  I mean HUGE! Everything in your life pretty much evolves around the games.  Most Saturdays are reserved in the fall for UK Football Tailgates at Commonwealth Stadium.  When that season ends you have UK Basketball at Rupp Arena.  The games never seem to end and neither do the celebrations.  Kentucky Fans are crazy fun

A friend sent me a forward of funnies that seemed appropriate for most of our 2011 New Year's Resolutions.  I would love to find a comic strip showing someone using the excuse, "It's too cold to go out for a walk today, I'll try to go tomorrow."  This is my daily excuse during a Kentucky winter and an excuse I need to destroy for the New Year!  Granted it
