One of my husband’s favorite foods has always been pulled pork! He kind of has a sweet tooth, and I think what he enjoys so much is honestly the BBQ sauce. Regardless of why he’s such a fan, there are a lot of things that make sandwiches with pulled pork a great dish. Yes they are wonderful in the summer – but pair them along with…
Two summers ago, I attended the United States Dairy Education and Training Consortium. This is an intensive six week program that focuses on providing a sustainable solution to incorporating excellent people with a passion for the Dairy industry into serving it. We would spend time on a dairy farm each weekday and went to a different one almost every single time. The very last dairy…
I’m not sure if you’ve seen the memes lately talking about getting a girl chicken nuggets for Valentines day, but lets just say if they are any indication of the temperature today this post will be very well received. I know that many are doing the whole going out candle lit dinner thing, which is fabulous if you can afford it and have the time. I…
I know that with Valentine’s day coming up, it’s the time of year that people are looking for something cute and easy to give to those they care about. Also, I’m not a parent but I would venture that parents are also way into the easy thing because your time is incredibly limited and of course you want to make the most of it! One of…
My favorite time of the year spreads from late September through to Christmas day. It starts with Fair Season. My experience with Fair is probably different than most others because I was blessed enough to show dairy heifers in high school. Rather than focusing on the rides I primarily would be taking care of our cattle. The smell of sawdust mingled with fair food always takes…
Valentines day will be here soon, and I don’t know about you but I feel like sometimes men can be pretty hard to buy for. Yes, there are some things that your significant other may want that are pretty specific. You should probably know what those are, but a great food supplement is always super handy. You could be that person that just gives candy –…
Jalapeno poppers speak to my soul! They’re a favorite appetizer along with chips, queso and salsa at my house. My favorite thing they typically go with would definitely be tacos, but really even for more classic get together food like burgers they’re a great way to welcome in your guests. It really compliments chilled appetizers nicely and the best part is, they only take 20 minutes…
As you know, Superbowl Sunday is tomorrow! If you’re like me, that probably makes your skin crawl because you may have actually done nothing about getting supplies together. There were quite a few people that were ready to go earlier in the week. Seriously, when it’s busy at Walmart at 7:00am in the morning you can probably guess that a holiday is near. In fact, the…
We all know what’s this Sunday. Yep, it’s here. The Superbowl. I’m not a football person, but my fiance absolutely loves it. I pretty much watch it in the background, but other than the commercials and food it’s not really my deal. However, with that being said it’s always fun to spend time with friends and family and that’s kind of what it’s all about anyhow!…
Okay, so I already told you that I love chips. Specifically – tortilla chips. You also probably read about the delicious microwaveable Queso. But what about salsa? I’ll admit it I’m pretty partial to what I’ll eat. Pace is okay, it’s just essentially tomato paste. Sadies (which is made in New Mexico), specifically the hot kind of traditional – that’s where its at. But when you…
