We love our mushrooms. Recently, we have had some great harvests of lion’s mane and when the Mushroom Man suggested making “crab cakes” out of them, I was a little wary of that one. However, everything he has tried works out and when he found this recipe from Aubrey’s Kitchen, we were set for dinner….

Being married to the Mushroom Man, I get asked for my favorite recipes. This stuffed mushroom is a true winner…
For the Love of Zucchini: Zucchini Tots and Apple Zucchini Bread
When summer rolls in I can’t help it, I love zucchini. At my 9-5, we have certainly been seeing a lot of it too. From a community garden, to fresh GA Grown produce distributions I love how zucchini is always making a comeback in my life. Without further ado, here is my tribute to that…
Keep it Simple – Simple Dinner Plates for “I’m Not Cooking” Nights
I get it. You get in the kitchen, open the refrigerator. Poke around a bit to see what you have in front of you. Open your computer or scroll through your phone to find the “Best Chicken Recipe,” “Easy Chicken Recipe,” or my personal favorite “Best Easy Recipe for Chicken.” About this time as you…
Get your ‘Shroom On: Parmesan-Panko Portabello Mushroom Fries

The loveliest thing you can cook for someone who’s close to you is about as nice a valentine as you can give.” Julia Child While we can’t travel, we can certainly experience some wonderful cuisine from our own kitchens. The hubs has been eagerly documenting quite a…
Comfort Food and Celebrations: How about a Sunday Shakshuka?
Life happens. And your blog gets a little forgotten. However, after going to our Wild Women’s Action and Adventure Club Warm Springs Brunch and Trip, I was inspired to try a spin on a shakshuka.

Summer Dreams and Schemes: Surviving the Heat Wave in the Kitchen
I’ve giggled as I started paging through our summer calendar and realize that we’re getting ready for a huge, action-packed summer.

BBQ Redefined: Black Beans, Beets and Quinoa Tacos
You had to do a double take, didn’t you? When you looked at BBQ you thought pulled pork, shredded carnitas, etc. But nope! And guess what, I am going to blow your mind with this recipe. As you may guess from my other posts, it is confession time. I can’t even count how many times I…
Off-Topic: 15 Bucket List Things to Do Before 40
Ok, so this doesn’t have to do with the 100 Days Project, or cooking, but if you are like me, I eat up these Bucket List articles. Sometimes they are far-fetched, but then I read something and think- I can TOTALLY do that! What fun! When you can say that in a row, the list…

I’m back and finishing this post up so you can hear the rest of the story. Also, I knew I could probably hold myself a little more accountable if I had a start and finish. As you saw in the first post, Fast Food Part 1, I waxed on about how I turned one fast…
Fast Food For Good, Part 1 – The Famous Chicken Nugget
I have a confession to make. Despite all the clean eating, nutritional guarding, and healthy living we do and carry out over here, I love fast food. I try to deny it but I’m Lovin’ It, Having it My Way, and Eatin’ Mor Chikin’. However, let’s be real – you indulge in that pure yummy…
