Coffee and Pie Chat: Maple Orange Walnut Pie Recipe
This post contains affiliate links A few weeks ago, I was scrolling Instagram when a picture of the most delicious looking pie jumped out at me. Like I started drooling on my phone. The more I looked at this pie, the more I wanted a slice. Well, that’s not possible considering Kristin {from Chicken Librarian and I don’t live anywhere near each other, but I thought of another possibility… Why don’t I learn to bake my own pies? So I contacted Kristin and asked her if she’d like to join me on a pie baking venture and – guess what? She was game. cue the drooling crowds Y’all, she was still on…

Recipes
When The Hubs and I first got married, I couldn’t cook. I could barely boil water. And I really only knew how to do that because I needed the water for coffee. Other than that, there was takeout. Actually, there was a guy who sold crawfish, corn, and boiled potatoes out of the back of his white pick~up truck, but that’s a story for another day… It wasn’t until my kids were school aged that I started to take an interest in cooking. Mostly because we’d moved out of my mother~in~law’s house and I was now responsible for making sure that they ate regularly. There was also The Hubs, who…

Brown Boots and a Recipe {Shoe Style Saturday}
Happy Saturday! Do you have plans for this weekend? So far, I got nothin’. I may talk the hubs into visiting some more antique shops downtown. We’ve been doing that a lot lately. I’m totally digging the idea of upcycling and repurposing things. And the hubs is really getting in to it too. In fact, one of our favorite places right now is a little shop called Annie Laurie’s Antiques. You can read all about it by clicking here. This is our living room, the space we’re currently trying to decorate… I love the wall color and the wood ceiling. At first, I thought it’d be a little too cabiney…

Fruity Bread Pudding Recipe
A few weeks back I mentioned that my children surprised me by loving bread pudding. In fact, Miss 16 sent me a text requesting the bread pudding instead of cake for her birthday. Anyway since my post, I’ve been getting requests for the recipe. Unfortunately, I haven’t had a chance to make another one so there aren’t any pictures to go with the post but I wanted to share the recipe with you all anyway. I tweaked the recipe a bit to fit my family’s taste (they love dried fruits) so I encourage you to do the same. Please stop back by and let me know what you think after…

Where Bloggers Live: My Blogging Inspiration
Funny story: my blogging buddies had a whole email chain about how we’re last minute bloggers but we were going to make deadline because *dang it* that’s what we do annnnnnd I didn’t. Not because I’m a slacker but because I’m a slacker. Haha I sat down at this computer six different times last night and every single time, I got up and got distracted by random shiny object until this morning when I audibly groaned and said “I’ve done it again. I’ve missed the deadline.” Y’all, I’m not like this IRL. I’m a stickler for deadlines. I’m the person who shows up to meetings 15 minutes early and gets…
