You’re here because you love mint and bourbon whiskey. Or the state of Kentucky. Or the Derby. Or pretty much anything considered a “cocktail” that can suddenly appear in your hand in the next 5 minutes.

There are few things I love more than mac n cheese. I mean good, homemade, cheesy, saucy enough to still be creamy when baked, toasted bread crumbs…. Get in my belly.

I love grits. LOVE them. But y’all, I’m going to be straight up honest here…I don’t like shrimp. I know, “what’s wrong with you? How can you have grits without shrimp?” Truth time: even eating good seafood, at the beach, I still can’t get past …

I love a good, quick weeknight dinner. We’re talking a “just ran in the door from work or errand-running and my kid is screaming for food and it’s 6pm and I have nothing planned for dinner” kind of quick dinner. But being a culinary diva …

Most stuffed peppers I’ve seen involve a filling of meat and rice. I like rice as much as the next person, but what if you’re eating paleo, grain-free or summoning your willpower to finish your Whole30 strong?

Welcome to the saga where my (and your?) identity shifts from black thumb to green thumb. But not without bug bumps & fungal bruises along the way. Join us as we ever so gradually forsake the grocery store produce section for our backyard blissful bounty. …

We’re not hunters – far from it actually. Austin wouldn’t even hurt a fly. Literally. One time there was a giant centipede crawling close to the ceiling, and I tried to squish it with a shoe but couldn’t reach it (even jumping as high as …

Are you Paleo? Killing your Whole30 challenge? Just a regular guy / gal trying to up your veggie intake or go full-on sneaky parent tricking your kiddos into eating their veggies? This’ll work for all those scenarios.

Eggs benedict. The type of rich, decadent, delicious breakfast you don’t expect to be able to eat on Whole30. I don’t mean to brag, but figuring out ways to eat delicious things even on restrictive diets is kind of my specialty. Actually…I don’t know if …

This might be the prettiest crust I’ve ever made. It kind of looks like dainty little flower petals, and I’m not going to lie to you, I’m dang proud of it.
