Thank you, Saturday. It’s been a long week, full of “new parent” things. Now, before you people-parents get all angry, I’m not trying to minimize what you do, but I’ve learned this week that being a pet parent can be a whole lotta stressful, too.…
Happy Thursday folks! It’s just past mid-week and we’re staring Friday in the face. We’re almost there. We need coffee. How about some cafe de olla?
Today’s dish was not really bred from want or cravings, but more from all the extra crawfish tails leftover from the cajun fettuccine. Not that it’s a bad thing- ever since Peaches made Chicken Étouffée for our Mardi Gras potluck a few months ago, crawfish etouffée has been on my list of dishes to recreate at some future point because it was oh-so-delicious. The fettuccine just gave me a reason to do so.

Saturday! Here we are. How about some pudding? Peach and raspberry pudding, to be exact.
These Butterscotch Rice Krispies Treats are a twist on the classic cereal bar- with the addition of cloves and cinnamon to liven up an old recipe.

With lighter days and warmer(ish) weather, it seems like we should be eating lighter foods, right? Kindasortamaybe? I think I’m being lulled into the false sense of security that the impending 50F weekend is bringing me, but I’m going to run with it for now. However, if you’re not quite ready to jump feet first into light and bright foods, I’ve got the perfect meal that’s both: BBQ shrimp and grits.
So here we are, day 18 of the-cold-that-will-not-end. I’m cheering myself up by making chicken tacos with tequila caramelized onions.
