We have been known to get stuck in a YouTube hole at times. Okay, who am I kidding? We watch a LOT of YouTube. Between all of the Binging with Babish and Bon Apetit videos that we consume, random videos come up that pique our interest. Sidenote: Both of those channels are excellent to search…

Low Carb Chicken Burritos
Nothing, I mean absolutely nothing was going to help this dish photograph well. Ha. Nothing. However, it tasted SO good that we had to make it a few days later. To be perfectly honest, we considered making it a meal prep, but couldn’t quite figure out how to keep the tortilla from getting too soggy…
Lance Culinary: Shrimp and “Grits”
I hope this finds everyone well! Life has really been busy lately, and I thought maybe I’d start by just getting to the nitty gritty of things on some posts, and sharing recipes that we’ve been making in our home. If you didn’t already know, my husband is an amazing home cook. We’ve appropriately tagged…
An Honest Keto Journey
I’m back! It’s a new day, fresh start, and a new food focus! Don’t worry, I’ll never abandon my love of Southern food and goodness. It’s just going to be a little bit adapted, going forward. Think of it as a way to keep myself and my husband focused on moving forward in a healthier…
First stop: Chicken and Gnocchi Dumplings
Who loves a weight loss journey??? The answer is simple. ONLY the people on the outside looking in, at first. After a little bit, it becomes more fun for the ones that are actually living the journey. With that being said, my fiancée (here on out known as my King) and I are going…
Almost Vegan Chocolate “Caramel” Oatmeal Cookies

Today’s the day…
It’s no April Fools joke…today’s the day the house was sold. It’s been a very emotional ride since Maw-Maw passed. Isn’t it always when someone you love dearly passes? I thought I’d share a few thoughts through photographs I’ve taken these past 15 months… This was the last time I looked through this window…
An Evening with Paula Deen!!!
Life has been very active lately…good, bad, all the above! That’s why when the opportunity presented itself for me to go and see the Paula Deen Live tour that was coming through Charlotte, I was NOT going to pass that up! What made it even better? My good friend, Amy, was going to be able…
Changing the way we cook: Dialysis friendly recipes
What a crazy month it’s been! Four weeks ago tomorrow, Maw-Maw was first admitted to the hospital for kidney failure and a myriad of other things. Two weeks before that approximately she had a pretty bad fall, and that started the downhill roll for her kidneys. Between work, home, and hospital (or rehab center for…
My 10 Flavors I Love in Alamance County and Beyond
This was the February 2013 article published in Alamance Magazine. I’m sorry I haven’t been around much. I’ve began a new job since the last time I posted, and I also closed my right hand index finger in my car door. It was broken and horribly swollen. That hasn’t made it very easy to type,…
