(Not just any) Chocolate Chip Cookies

If you really think about it I bet you perform way more selfless acts than you realize.  Picking up a trinket for a friend because you know she'd like it.  Asking your doorman if he'd like a cup of coffee when you go out.  ...

Summer Bourbon & Barbecue

Tell me you didn't do it.  Tell me you didn't let the entire month of May pass without noting that it is National Barbecue Month.  Wait, you did?   Well, don't worry.  While you were trolling the internet at work looking for a flattering swimsuit,...

Memorial Day Crawfish Boil

Do you have plans for this weekend?  Do you either live in the Gulf Coast or are you a monster at sourcing ingredients?  If your answers are no and then yes then I have an idea!  Let's host a Louisiana Crawfish Boil! The memory of my...

Smoked Corn & Shrimp Chowder

About a year after Nick and I met we were having a discussion about smoking.  We had both smoked a bit in college and we were both very anti-smoking at the point of the conversation.  I told him that I had been absurdly excited when...

Creamy Roasted Cauliflower Soup

Entertaining is my drug of choice.  Here's what it does:  It makes me clean my house, put out new flowers and communicate effectively with friends.  It also makes me feel really down if I don't do it enough.   The morning-after effect of my drug...

Buttermilk Biscuit Strawberry Shortcake

I went to college in a small town called Hammond, Louisiana.   The town and the school both are nondescript except that the school doubled in size while I was there, from 7,000 students to 14,000 students, and the town size was about 14,000 at...

Do Ahead Frittata

There are varying schools of thought on having a planned delivery of a baby.  The detractors say it takes the magic out of having a baby because it turns nature into something clinical.  Having had three deliveries...

The Quintessential Cajun Bloody Mary

I was so caught up with new baby fever that I barely registered Martine's recent move to New Orleans!   She road-tripped with her two dogs and her amazing friend Monica all the way from San Francisco.  She made night stops in Tucson and Austin...
