Soooo as I mentioned in my last post, I wasn't able to share with you Thanksgiving recipes (besides BreakingFall, the best cocktail ever) before the holiday. Working a new full-time job and moving on top of trying to have a life and take some time for myself won over stressing out. So alas, this will turn into a Thanksgiving Recipe Roundup... a recap of this year's menu, and the best Thanksgiving Menu Plan for years to come!! I'm … [Read more...]

Bacon Wrapped Dates with Goat Cheese and Sage
I still remember the first time I had a bacon wrapped date. Do you? Honestly? I don't expect anyone to answer, "yes" to that question. I know... I have a weird memory for very specific details. My husband loooves that quality about me. Especially when I quote exactly what he said in some insignificant moment years ago to "win" an argument <insert kissy face emojis>. When I lived in Portland, Oregon my sister came to visit very … [Read more...]
Grilled Bacon Chocolate Chip Cookies
Yeaaaahhhh, so I grilled cookies. {O.M.G.} Even if you don't have a Big Green Egg, you can do the same thing in your grill. Or almost the same thing in your oven. With The Big Green Egg (or any other smoker) you can add wood chips, AKA add smoke, AKA grill and smoke cookies. Holy moly. AAAAND, I didn't just grill any cookies. No, no. no. I grilled bacon chocolate chip cookies. The idea came about after I shared Grilled Pizza Brava. I … [Read more...]
BLTC Salad
Bacon. Lettuce. Tomato. Caesar. BLTC. Heck yeah. So I lied. I said two posts ago when I talked about stress that I'd not just share mental, physical, and spiritual symptoms of stress but also what the speaker said you can do to alleviate stress. Annnd I didn't. I left you all looking at a long list going, I have that, that, that, that, that, and that. Great. Now I'm more stressed realizing how much I show signs of stress! … [Read more...]
Sweet Potato Spaghetti Bolognese
I went out to eat a few weekends ago to a local Durango spot. The husband and I had a little date night. Gotta keep things romantic, ya know? It was probably my favorite meal/restaurant we've had in town yet! He started with a whiskey cocktail, me with sparkling rosé, and we kicked the night off right with some oysters. Gosh, I love those things. The first time I ever had one … [Read more...]
Sage Roasted Acorn Squash & Brussels Sprouts
As I mentioned, I recently came back from a great trip in Denver and Fort Collins, Colorado. At one point I was having dinner, smiling, and laughing with … [Read more...]
Leftover Frittata
My husband and I arrived off the red-eye to stay at my parents' for a long weekend. It was time for breakfast when we arrived home. Moving to a paleo diet can be very foreign to a non-paleo'er so when I pulled out the left overs from my parent's dinner the night before around 9 am my mom was surprised, but happy she had something that we could eat. She had made Autumn Vegetables and Butter Roasted Turkey Breasts. I repurposed them for … [Read more...]
