Barefoot! Meringue Chantilly- Sort of

Was it just me and my crazy Sunday that had problems with these meringues?  I’ve made meringues before… several times but  I’ve never quite experienced the problems I had with these.  I’m sure the other Barefooters faired well.

Overwhelmed

**not gluten free**

I’m working on a proposal to send to a magazine offering my services as a freelance writer.  My mom is having her gallbladder removed today.  The Husband made honors at school this semester by completely neglecting his home life to be a study master.  My Gomer Pyle is still MIA and my heart [...]

Delta Whiskey

In an effort to make the blog more professional (for reasons I hope to tell you about soon), I purchased my own domain!  Keeping true to both the military and myself… I proudly announce I’m the proud mama of DeltaWhiskey.us!  

Delta Whiskey is my nickname from The Husband and all of the guys on the [...]

A few weeks before Christmas I purchased a spiral cut ham for our family dinner then promptly threw it in the deep freeze where it rested for the past month, completely forgotten.  A few weeks ago, I dug it out and planned on roasting it for a little get together we were having with friends.  The [...]

Wings of Love – Chapter Three

Fueled by alcohol and the murky waters of the Niangua River, things had heated up between Bobby and I.  I had taken a good seven months to recover from my relationship with Sean.  Bobby and I spent those seven months flirting shamelessly, sharing dinner and movies but never quite taking it past dating and kissing like [...]

On those [...]

Barefoot! Real Meatballs & Spaghetti

A big thanks is in order for Rebecca of Ezra Pound Cake who chose this week’s Barefoot recipe.  What is the thanks for?  The excuse to try out another recipe for spaghetti and meatballs?  Sure.  The crazy antics that she’s always coming up with that make me laugh so hard I have stitches?  Absolutely.  The extra kiss [...]

Asian Noodles... by the non-Asian

**not gluten free**

I often find myself playing with recipes that bring together flavors in a new and comforting way… with a lot less fat than initially intended.  I decided to play with noodles last week while The Husband was working.  My staple Asian items are: noodles (the funkier the better), coconut milk, peanut butter, peanuts, [...]

Honestly Delicious

A few weeks ago, my buddy Martha awarded me with the Honest Scrap award.  Martha interpreted the award to mean that she portrays herself as an honest woman through her words… I agree.

Mixed Bag

My emotions are all over the place these days.  I long for the day Gomer Pyle makes his way home.  My heart literally hurts when I think about going to bed without him.  Tears spring to my eyes when I think about the last kiss I smacked on his little forehead.  Does he know I [...]
