Y’all please step away from the Taco Seasoning packets. All you need for true Tex-mex flavored ground beef is garlic, onion, tomato, cumin, chili powder, paprika, the tiniest dash of Mexican oregano, salt and pepper. That’s your basic recipe. If you want to make picadillo add diced potatoes...

Made pecan pralines for our dessert snack tonight. Ate too many, they are addictive.

Had lunch out with family today so dinner will be leftover Cobb Salad. Why are Cobb salads always so ginormous?

I’m a big believer in Intermittent Fasting. I generally eat whatever I want just not past the dinner hour (we eat between 6-7) and then not again until about 11am the next morning. I have a big glass of water in the morning with my Emergen-C packet and my vitamins but no food until...

I did the mayo rub on a roast chicken for the first time not too long ago. Loved the flavor but the skin didn’t crisp well. Any tips for that?

Eggplant rollatini, chopped salad and sourdough pull apart cheese bread.

Had a late lunch early dinner at the dine-in movie theater. Popcorn with butter, pizza and warm cookies with ice cream. Delicious but back on my health kick tomorrow.

I think I will grab some on my next trip to the store.

How’s the flavor? I’m intrigued.

Tex-mex tonight at our favorite joint. Mexican martinis, puffy tacos, charro beans, rice, queso… the works! I’m stuffed.

Last night was veggie fried rice. Making up for that healthy dinner with fried chicken tonight. :)

Just pick up the check. He can pick it up next time.

Our dog is 9 and has developed a condition in both eyes and is almost completely blind. It came on so fast and the dog eye doctor said there is nothing she can do. The next however many years she has, I will devote to caring for her. I currently make her food because she has stomach issues and...

Yes! I miss the 1040EZ and racing to the post office to get the date stamped on filing day. EZ peasy. We are among the Turbo Tax users now. I did mine and my kid’s taxes this week with TT.

He’s a murderer. I can’t even open Facebook or Instagram without seeing his face. Gross.
