It was the tender beginning to a moving scene in episode 2 of this season’s “Game of Thrones,” when Lady Olenna offers long-suffering Sansa Stark a lemon cake at tea. Sansa smiles and replies, “They’re my favorite!” This is all shortly before she breaks down and reveals that King Joffrey – fiance of Lady Olenna’s granddaughter Margaery – is “a monster”. […]

Wild Wednesdays: Fried Bream
I’ll never forget it. The minute Brent and I told my father-in-law that we were expecting a little girl, he asked: “Can I still teach her how to fish?” Since both of us are outdoorsy – something that has only grown tremendously over the past 4 years – our answer was a resounding, “YES!”. We’ve made a conscious effort to […]
Game of Thrones: Honey Biscuits from The South
Honestly, I haven’t gotten a chance to watch this week’s episode of “Game of Thrones” yet (thank goodness for HBO Go!) – so no spoilers please! But one thing that is sure not to spoil are these delicious Honey Biscuits from A Feast of Ice and Fire. They’re featured in the cookbook’s section on “The South,” which also includes tasty-sounding […]
Game of Thrones: Winterfell’s Onions in Gravy
As we continue to eat our way through the official “Game of Thrones” companion cookbook, A Feast of Ice and Fire, this week’s recipe takes us again to the northern region of Westeros and the stoic Stark family: “Ben Stark laughed. ‘As I feared. Ah, well. I believe I was younger than you the first time I got truly and […]
Chipotle Chicken Taco Salad
With Cinco de Mayo just around the corner, I’ve got Mexican food on the brain! From quick and easy tacos to ooey-gooey cheese dip and quesadillas, it’s hard to beat the simplicity of Mexican-inspired dinners and snacks. Although it’s not your typical Mexican fare, as the weather starts heating up, this Chipotle Chicken Taco Salad really hits the spot. It […]
Game of Thrones: Applecakes from The Wall
With season 3 of HBO’s increasingly popular “Game of Thrones” in full-swing – a must-watch every Sunday for Brent and me – we thought it would be fun to feature a recipe inspired by the hit novels/tv series on Mondays. Luckily, the ladies over at Inn at the Crossroads, a popular “Game of Thrones” food blog, have compiled a cookbook […]
Wild Wednesdays: Stuffed Venison Tenderloin
This week on Wild Wednesdays, we’re cooking a look at the most tender cut of deer meat available: the tenderloin. Like pork tenderloin and beef tenderloin (better known as filet mignon), venison tenderloin is a juicy, tender cut that’s well worth the bit of extra effort it takes to remove when cleaning the animal yourself. Lately Brent and I have […]
Wild Wednesdays: Easter Sunday Fried Turkey
BOOM! Brent’s shotgun fire rang in my ear around 9 am the day before Easter, as we sat side-by-side next to a pine tree at our favorite hunting spot. He’d picked a fine place to set up, as we’d been surrounded by gobblers and hens most of the morning. While I, the turkey hunting rookie, looked left for any sign […]
Tales from the Big Green Egg: Peanut Grilled Shrimp
The weather’s starting to get warmer, and the days are certainly getting longer, which means it’s time to fire up the Big Green Egg at our house! Don’t get me wrong, Brent and I love to grill throughout the winter – but it just feels so much better to be grilling after work when it’s light outside rather than dark. […]
