As if I need another reason to shop at Target? But KiwiCo is carried at Target. What is KiwiCo you ask? Well I am glad you asked KiwiCo is a company that sells hands on projects for kids of all ages.
My son is a builder. He absolutely loves building things from legos to stem toys and so much more.
When I first heard about KiwiCo I was so excited to share it with him.
Well he built his first crate, the Build it Yourself Domino Machine. He absolutely loved this.
As a mom it’s important that he’s using his hands and brains for other things besides video games. I highly recommend KiwiCo.
Now available at Target. Be sure to check out the link in my bio for more details. @kiwico_inc

On Fridays my husband and I typically go out to lunch for our weekly lunch date. This past week we decided to switch things up since we had an event later that night as a family.
We love cooking outside at home. The wrestler was perfect for it so we cooked and home.

Red Beans Monday with BlueRunner. I grew up eating

Red Beans Monday with BlueRunner. I grew up eating red beans every Monday. It was part of the culture back in Louisiana. I don’t always continue this tradition with my family. But every now and again we will have Red Beans and rice on a Monday.
BlueRunner Red Beans is something my husband loves. He was so excited when I received a package from BlueRunner.

BlueRunner makes it easy to prepare quick, delicious meals that can be on the table in less than 30 minutes.

Check out this easy one. @bluerunnerfoods

I’m not much of a hot dog eater but every now and then I will crave one. I used to eat the ones from Sonic but it’s been a minute. I decided to make it at home for me and my guys.
Our daughter was out of town so it was the perfect meal for them since she doesn’t like hot dogs.
I used the chili starter by Tabasco. An easy shortcut.
Washed this meal down with a yummy Watermelon Lime Olipop.

Texas has been graced with some cooler temperature

Texas has been graced with some cooler temperatures. Yay!! I’m loving the cooler weather.

I’m sharing a new recipe my Cheesy Taco Soup. One of the products I used in this soup is from Desert Pepper Trading Company’s Desert Pepper Chile Con Queso.

Desert Pepper Trading Company was born and raised on the border of Texas, Mexico, and New Mexico. This amazing crux of bright flavors, sunlight, and the desert Southwest inspires us in every way.

Desert Pepper offers a variety of Salsas, Dips and Queso.

This Cheesy Taco Soup is so easy to make and is great for busy moms or families. This meal will be on the table in less than 30 minutes. The perfect meal for after a game. Make this meal ahead of time and all you have to do is serve the family after the game. @desertpeppertradingco

It’s Wellness Wednesday. I’ve been working to

It’s Wellness Wednesday. I’ve been working to come up with NEW, Healthy Recipes for my family. My husband and I are trying to be intentional about eating healthier. Now I have to be honest, I am typically not a salad person. But there are a few salads that I really love to make.
I have recently created a new one that I absolutely love, my Spicy Dumpling Salad. This salad was superb. There are only a few simple ingredients, but it is sooooo good!!
My son and I had this for lunch one day and he loved it!

Being from Louisiana we are always on the hunt for

Being from Louisiana we are always on the hunt for Seafood restaurants. Our teenager had a fellowship at church, so my husband, son and I grabbed lunch at Bayou City Seafood.
Bayou City Seafood serves Cajun inspired dishes such as poboys, gumbo, fettuccine, seafood dishes and much more.

Here’s what we tried:

* Fried fish nuggets with cocktail sauce and tartar sauce
* Kid’s crawfish tails and French fries
* Seafood courtbouillion with shrimp, jumbo lump crab, crawfish, fish with rice. Absolutely superb. Well seasoned and tasted like the courtbouillion I eat back home.
* Dale’s special, shrimp, jumbo lump crab, scallops, crawfish, broccoli and diced tomatoes served with rice. A really good dish. But the plating was sloppy, but my husband loved this dish.
* We ordered two slices of Key-lime pie to go. Oh my. really really good! @bayoucityseafood

Fish Friday is something we have very often. Growing up in Louisiana we ate Fish on Friday every week.
When I eat fried fish I have to have some tartar sauce. We didn’t have any bottled tartar sauce from the last time we cooked fried fish. So I made my own with the ingredients I had on hand. Full recipe can be found on the blog. Link in the bio.

One of my favorite cut of Steak is Ribeye. I love pairing my Steak with Frites. So good.

Fried the French fries with Rosemary. Delicious. I don’t know if it’s just me but there is just something about good French fries. With a delicious salad!

It’s the Fall season which means all of our favorite TV Shows, new movies etc are back.
Catching up on shows or movies requires a salty snack and refreshing drink.
I was catching up on the current season of Emily in Paris. For snack, I enjoyed Truffle popcorn. We made this yummy popcorn on the Blackstone outside. 🍿🍿
I’ve linked the Truffle seasoning to my @shop.ltk

Today is Travel Tuesday, Punta Cana would be a nic

Today is Travel Tuesday, Punta Cana would be a nice spot to be whisk away today but I’m settling for a delicious meal from a Punta Cana Caribbean restaurant.
One of the amazing things about Texas is the different cultures that are represented here.
My husband and I stopped in for lunch a few weeks ago at this Caribbean restaurant.
Here’s what we tried:
* Passion fruit juice really yummy
* Fresh lemonade
* Shrimp empanadas
* Chicharron de pollo (Dominican fried chicken pieces) was delicious but it would have been better as whole pieces instead of chunks.
* Rabo Encendido oxtail stew with rice and beans - delicious rich stew
Overall we loved our dining experience at the Punta Cana restaurant. From the music to the customer service to the food. Felt like we had been whisked away to a little island restaurant in Punta Cana restaurant. The food was delicious. The oxtails was the star of the day. My only complaint would be that the plaintains weren’t served with the dishes it was a side dish. Most places serve it together. But that would be my only complaint if I had one. @puntacanahtx

During the Weekends we love kicking back on our back patio relaxing with a nice refreshing drink in hand. 🍹🍹
Minute Maid has some delicious Aqua Frescas. I picked up this new one, Mango Lime. I added a few things to fancy it up. Happy Sunday!

My teenager was at a HS retreat for a few days. When she arrived back in town and we picked her up. She immediately wanted something to eat. She loves fried rice and had already requested that before she left as her meal when she came back.
We normally make it at home or order from one of our favorite takeout spots, but we decided to dine in at Up Thai Kitchen.

Up Thai has one of the best fried rice dishes I’ve eaten called crispy Chicken Herb fried rice. Superb. A must try, level 3 if you can handle the heat. My favorite go to meal from there.

Here’s what we tried:
* Crispy Chicken Herb fried rice the best dish I’ve ever eaten from Up Thai Kitchen
* Shrimp tempura (they were out of spicy mayo so I wasn’t happy about that. It was ok with the sweet and sour sauce)
* Crab fried rice really really good. It was made with imitation crab, but it was delicious. My teen ordered a level 2 and it was pretty spicy. Seafood holds spice differently than chicken or beef so be mindful of the spice level. But it was really good.
* Teriyaki chicken with steamed rice.
* Cream cheese puffs with sweet and sour sauce
Overall the food was on point. Served pipping hot. Each dish was made to order. The service was ok. They get pretty busy for lunch so arrive early because the place isn’t very big. Everything is was delicious. This is one of our go to places for takeout on busy nights. @upthaicypress

Most families are officially back at school. For most families this is a very busy time. Busy seasons can make meal planning hard for some families. Sometimes finding shortcuts makes for easy meal planning and creating meals that are still home-cooked.
Blue Runner has been around for years. My husband and I both grew up eating Blue Runner beans.
Blue Runner was known back then more for their delicious beans. Blue Runner is known for much more now with their Meal Bases. Now offering options like Shrimp Creole base, Jambalya Base, Crab & Brie Bisque and Homestyle Chili Starter.I am using the Homestyle Chili starter in today’s recipe.The Homestyle Chili Starter is hearty, tasty and easy to prepare. The Homestyle Chili Starter taste like you’ve been cooking this chili all day. Recipe link in the bio. @bluerunnerfoods

My crew and I stopped in at Red Flame Steak & Gril

My crew and I stopped in at Red Flame Steak & Grill after church a few Sundays ago. Red flame has a few locations, but we visited the Katy location. @redflamekaty

Here is what we tried:
* Lobster Bisque
* Picanha Steak with crab
* Kid’s Cheeseburger with fries
* Steak Jalapeño Sandwich with fries
* Sirloin steak

Overall the restaurant is beautiful. The service was pretty good. The food was good. I have to be honest nothing really wowed us.
But here are my top picks. They have some delicious mocktails, the Steak Jalapeño sandwich was good. The steaks were decent but lacked seasoning. Salt and pepper goes a long way on a steak. The steaks were cooked perfectly but no seasoning. The Lobster Bisque was delicious.

Red flame has a variety menu which I loved. There was something for everyone.

Chicken Parm is one of my favorite meals. I traditionally eat it with pasta, but I decided to eat the dish this time with a caesar salad.
I switched up this recipe by Air Frying our chicken. A healthy alternative instead of deep frying the chicken. Then topped it with marinara and Fresh mozzarella cheese. So good.
Honestly I didn’t miss the pasta.

It’s crazy that it’s already been a week since

It’s crazy that it’s already been a week since we celebrated our teenager’s Sweet 16. As I went through footage and pictures from the event, seeing the smile on her face and those that attended was everything!!

I have just completed my Full YouTube video of this event. Be sure to check it out. Link in the bio.
But this event would not have been successful without the help of an amazing Party Planner, She Rocks Events! I’m tagging them all here from the caterer to the photographer to the DJ, backdrop and so much more.
