Pimento Cheese, Not Your Grandma's Spread

Pimento cheese is one of those foods that has been so corrupted by the food industry that it has become synonymous with other crappy foods like Spam.  I'm not even certain what store bought pimento cheese might contain, nor do I want to find out.  It's a shame because pimento cheese can be a delightful treat, even if it does Read the full post…

Plum Good BBQ Sandwiches

In a few days it will officially be fall but the temperatures are still warm enough for me to continue swimming for a few more days.  The breeze was a little cool but that didn't stop me from swimming several laps this morning and I felt great afterwards!  Have you exercised lately?  With fall's cooler temperatures and fewer insects, you Read the full post…

Shingles Vacine and Treatment

A friend of mine was recently diagnosed with shingles so I felt I should discuss this nasty virus once again.  If you ever had chicken pox, you are at risk for getting shingles and believe me, you don't want it.  Shingles is a painful rash with blisters that scab over and may take 4 weeks or more to heal.  The Read the full post…

Vegetarian Tacos are muy delicioso!

There are times when I think I could easily become a vegetarian, especially when I try a new dish that is as good as the vegetarian tacos I had at Local Lime restaurant in Little Rock and the tofu fried rice at Sai Tai here in Jonesboro.  My husband and I celebrated our 23rd anniversary this past weekend by spending Read the full post…

Cracked Up Back

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on July 16, 2013 ]

It’s official.  I’ve cracked a bone in my back.  My sacrum to be exact.  I’ve been trying to figure out which child was responsible but they aren’t confessing yet.  (Surely you remember the old nursery rhyme, step on a crack…..?).  I guess I knew something had to be broken since I had so much trouble Read the full post…

Another Breakfast Idea

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on July 7, 2013 ]

Well I”ve survived a week after my fall but still no CT scan.  Note to everyone: don’t get sick on a holiday week, nothing happens unless you’re bleeding to death.  The pain is usually kept to a dull roar but I’m definitely not anywhere close to back to normal.  I managed to trip over a Read the full post…

Bucking Broncos

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on July 2, 2013 ]

    No matter how healthy we are, things can go wrong in a hurry and we can find ourselves at the doctor’s office.  Last Thursday without any warning, my horse threw me.  She had been going along nice and quiet when all of a sudden, she bucked for no apparent reason.  I landed hard Read the full post…

Best Beef Enchiladas

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on June 26, 2013 ]

I made the best beef enchiladas recently but of course I didn’t use beef.  Sorry Cattle Ranchers, but it’s Not What’s For Dinner at my house.  I don’t know why it is that I don’t care much for beef, especially ground beef but there it is.  Anyway, you can make these enchiladas with ground beef, Read the full post…

High Heel Pain

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on June 19, 2013 ]

Not a new subject for me but one dear to my heart – foot problems caused by wearing high heels.  Last week, ABC did a short piece on the price women pay for those high heels we all love.  I am a living testament to foot pain caused by high heels.  In my foolish youth Read the full post…

Exercise After The Baby

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on June 10, 2013 ]

Exercising after you’ve had a baby is probably low down on your list of things to do.  Sleep is surely number one.  But after a few weeks have passed and you have settled in with your newborn, it’s time to think about you.  Women have such a bad habit of putting everyone else’s needs ahead Read the full post…

Tasty New Breakfast Ideas – Breakfast Bread Cups and Easy Banana Cookies

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on June 4, 2013 ]

Sometimes random conversations with strangers or people I meet briefly have led to discovering a great new recipe.  Last week I began a conversation with a new checkout girl at Kroger.  I’m not even sure how the subject of breakfast came up but she told me how to make these delicious bread cups filled with Read the full post…

Fish Tacos With Strawberry Avocado Salsa

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on May 28, 2013 ]

Regular readers know I often try things most people would pass over and never even give a chance.  It’s important to put aside preconceived notions of food; what goes together and what we like and don’t like.  Food is all about thinking outside the box.  Over the last several years, our food culture has changed Read the full post…
