OH MY GOSH I'M SORRY DON'T HATE ME FOR BEING SUPER MIA FOR THE LAST MILLION WEEKS. That spontaneous trip to North Carolina totally threw off my blogging schedule, and after that I basically went directly to Las Vegas to visit my brother and sister in law, and I just got back from that trip yesterday. I'M SORRY! I have felt slightly guilty about it in the back of my mind for the last few weeks as ...

I've got eight coming your way, starting with these amazing carnitas that are too delicious for words. I have been hearing many things about the Instant Pot for the last year or so, and as the hype continued to go up and up and up, I finally decided to go ahead and get one. Well, I didn't ...

How To: Basic Marinara
Everybody's gotta have a basic red sauce recipe in their back pocket. It's like THE easiest go-to dinner ever. I always, always have crushed tomatoes in my pantry, I always have onions, and I obvi always have garlic (garlic is life - peep the blog title, yo). And that's basically all you need for this! I personally prefer adding meat at the very beginning and making it a meaty red sauce, but we're ...
How To: Scrambled Eggs
I have spent most of my life disliking eggs. They were never something I hated, I just never ever EVER had them in my house unless it was for a recipe. I never woke up and thought "Hm, I can't wait to shove some scrambled eggs in my face for breakfast!" Honestly, I've never really been a big breakfast eater period. Until recently. There was a large chunk of time - several months - after I had ...
How To: Dice Veggies
Our second post in the new "How To" series: dicing veggies! Seems super basic, but I have had a surprising amount of people ask me questions about this, and I got multiple requests on Facebook for this "how to" when I was putting my feelers out for what people wanted me to post about! I'm not claiming that the dicing techniques shown in the video below are the technical ways you would be taught ...

One Pot Smoky Lentil Stew
Do you want to know what happened in Kansas today? They closed schools because of EXTREME COLD. Like...no snow...no ice...no dangerous driving conditions...just cold weather. The concern is that they don't want kids waiting outside for the buses when it's like negative ten degrees. So hopefully that gives you a nice frigid visual of the weather outside right now. Growing up in North Carolina ...
Hot Cheesy Corn Dip
Okay, I mean...let's just be real with each other for a second. Is there anyone out there who doesn't have an emotionally intimate moment with their computer screen when they hear words like hot+cheesy+corn+dip in one title? How could this dip possibly not be the most delicious chip topper ever when it's cheesy, creamy, and loaded with sweet kernels of corn? If I'm being honest, I could go to TOWN ...
Chicken French Dip Sandwiches
It is highly challenging for me to go to a restaurant, see a French Dip on the menu, and not order it. McAlister's Deli is one of our frequent post-church lunch spots on Sunday, and every time we go there, I peruse the menu, trying to lie to myself and pretend I'm actually going to order something other than the French Dip, buuutttt, alas...every single time, gimme dat French Dip, yo. They are ...
