Black-Eyed Pea Salad
Black-eyed peas, they’re practically the official bean of the Southern U.S. Except the most common variety is apparently called a California BlackEye and…whatevs. We be lovin’ them in the South. The pea is ours! Typically I do as most good Southern people do, adding them to a pot or crock pot with ham or bacon […]

I need a pick-me-up. Just a few moments of quiet, and maybe something like this Frozen Strawberry Lemonade. Seems like everyone’s got this kind of thing on their menus this summer.

I recently saw a cartoon somewhere on the internet that made fun of the, um, I guess you could call it “flowery language”, that food bloggers tend to use. Eh, I kind of know what they’re referring to, and I’ve even been called out before on Twitter by online friends for some of my descriptions. […]

Hmm, yes, yummy baked peaches with a cheesecake filling spooned on top - this is one easy dessert that pays off big. The hardest part? Just waiting on those peaches to ripen. It’s a hard life, […]

Well, the creators of the most recent Cooking Light issue certainly know how to get our attention. For one, their cover screams pizza, and two, their cover screams bacon. Together, they scream Make us now! It seems we are powerless against such suggestions. Hopelessly and yet unashamed. Because this pizza is a very, very good thing. Because bacon. […]
