It’s just a little hocus pocus, y’all. — Ghouls and goblins are great and all, but a cast iron cauldron full of queso cheese dip is what I really want as my Halloween treat. This simple creamy four cheese queso is perfect for your monster bash or movie night in. Without any doubt, Halloween is…

Goat Cheese Prosciutto Stuffed Peppadews
I am officially finished with the summer heat, y’all. Nashville is hawwwwwt in one of those uncomfortable, sticky kinda ways. The only saving grace right now is that I really do love all of the summer minglings with friends. Weekend and evening drinks and laughs almost make me forget that fall is just around the corner…
Spiked Peppermint Mocha Mousse
I’m ho ho home for the holidays and basically surviving on everything peppermint for the rest of the year. Growing up, we would go to my grandmother’s house for Christmas every year. One thing was on my mind during those trips (other than presents, obv). Peppermint ice cream. Do you remember the type? Litte bits…
Simple Dark Chocolate Ganache Tart + Sugared Raspberries
A classic tart is one of the top 10 desserts that you should have in your back pocket notepad o’ recipes. It’s my go-to for impromptu dinner parties or events that I was asked to bring dessert for weeks ago and completely forgot about until the day of. When you run a blog called Southern…
Boozy Root Beer Whiskey Cream Floats
I’m starting to have those twitches in anticipation of Spring. I’ve had absolutely enough of this cold, snowy mess. What I haven’t had enough of is cold, messy drinks. Any excuse to pour whiskey and root beer and more whiskey over ice cream is a good excuse to me. In anticipation for the upcoming Super Bowl…
Fried Mashed Potato Balls
When I was a kid, I can remember going to a University of Kentucky football game. If any of you know anything about Kentucky, you’ll know how horrible of an idea that even is. When we got there, it started to snow. It continued to snow. Eventually, someone in my family was able to pry…
Apple Bourbon Steak Fajitas
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Campbell’s Slow Cooker Sauces. All opinions are 100% mine. Since things are cooling off outside, I’m trying to get the absolute most out of the daylight hours. Meeting friends for drinks after work, attending some local food events, all of the million festivals that are…
Grilled Poblano Turkey Sliders
The end of summer means two things around here in the South– 1) Finally a bit of relief from that ridiculous heat, & 2) Football. People around here are dedicated to their team. Growing up in Kentucky, the first thing you would be asked when meeting someone was, “Louisville or Kentucky?”. Kentucky was (is.) always…
Bruleed Banana Daiquiri
I scream. You scream. We all scream for… daiquiris! Pretty sure that’s how it goes. Frozen bananas at amusement parks, smoothies to get your sunny day started, banana bread to use up those not so pretty picks. This fruit screams summer to me, so why not turn it into a nice frozen draaaaank?! Moving…
Frozen Peach Basil Daiquiri
Spring is in the air. You know what that means– Fresh herbs, great market produce, festivals full of unique food items from every fruit you could imagine. Soon enough, one of my all-time favorite will be dropping from their trees– Peaches! My take on the best way to use up some of those frozen peaches…
