Cajun Porn 2: Pulled Pork Tostadas – Day 3

December 7, 2011

Day 3 was a day of rest, recovery, and visiting with family, but we still had to eat. No one felt like going out, so we dug out that left over pulled pork and created the Pulled Pork Tostada. While I am a big fan of both Mexican food and barbeque, I had never thought [...]

6 Weeks

November 15, 2011

As you may remember, I have been alcohol free for the last 6 weeks. No wine. No Martini’s. Not a single solitary drop of anything fun has passed these lips in 6 weeks. Well, I did get a little wild and have a Coke Zero on Melbourne Cup day, but that doesn’t really count. Surprisingly, [...]

Wordless Wednesday: Why?

November 9, 2011

Why in the world do lizards feel the need to do this in my presence? Is it good luck or something that I keep stumbling upon lizards in compromising positions? You may remember that I witnessed a similar spectacle a few months ago on my mom’s back porch. This time though, I was not even [...]

Y’all know how much I love to write about food, so when Jaclyn asked me to compare some Cajun’ness to some Aussie’ness, I knew just what to do. Let me present… (drum [...]

2 Years

October 24, 2011

This week I am celebrating my 2 year Blogiversary. Yay! It seems like only a few weeks ago that I nervously hit “Publish” on my first post. Back in those days, my mom was the only reader.

English Mick, English

October 12, 2011

So, it’s football season over in the States, and for the first time in 10 years I am able to watch the regular season games of my beloved LSU Tigers. To be honest, I did not realize just how much I missed LSU Football until I was watching the first game against Oregon at Cowboys [...]

The Week That Was

October 3, 2011

Forgive me, dear readers. It has been a week since I was last here. A long and busy week. Here are few of the things I’ve been up to. 1. I’m officially 40. Wow, that sounds old. It doesn’t feel any older than 39, but they way it sounds… 2. I have spent the weekend [...]
