Life Update

Hey ya'll...long time no talk.

Life is fun...hard...shocking...full of turns!!!!! 

Last year we lost one of our cats (Bull Cat) to FIV...at the beginning of this year, we lost our second cat (Tom) to FIV. We were heartbroken about both. But what really hit us was our baby boy Zeus, our GSD. We had to put our baby boy down in September due to end-stage heart failure...he would have only been four years old on November 3rd. We saw the signs and refused to believe it and when we took him in, they confirmed our worst fears. So, my sweet Bailee Sue is an only fur child again. She turned 6 on November 5th!! Oh, don't let me forget...our sugar gliders, Bonnie & Clyde, had a baby...we named her Pearl. And we still have 6 snakes.

SO MUCH has happened since my last posts. We have moved out of East Nashville. Moved completely out of Nashville, actually. Took our behinds all the way back down to Columbia. And we couldn't be more happy here.

We are in the cutest house with so much character, original hardwood floors (1940), and it's BLUE concrete! I'll photo drop at the end of this post. We are so excited for Spring time so we can do some landscaping! We are still struggling financially. BUT...we've literally never been happier! And I think that will change soon.

I took a leap and started my CAKE business. Super happy about that. I'm not well known, so it's been hard getting orders. But I'm ok with that for now. I don't want to get too much business, too fast.

Charlotte Blake turned 9 MONTHS OLD on December 15th!!!! She started crawling a couple weeks before her 6 month mark. When I tell ya'll she is a mess, I mean it. She is all over the place. For the past few months or so she'd been standing herself up at the coffee table and ottoman and couch. Then she started walking back and forth in front of the couch while holding on to it...and then all of a sudden, ON her 9 month birth day...she took her first step!!! Grayson was walking at 10.5 months and we felt like that was early...but this...good lawd! I think she's just trying to keep up with brother! He is doing so well with having a sister, we are very proud of him. He has his moments, but for the most part, they're good!!

Anyway, I am rambling...but it was a little update, 

More posts coming soon and more often!

Eggplant Parm!

Hey guys! I’ll be making 2 posts today...so stay tuned! So, for my first post I’m sharing our Eggplant Parm we had last night. It was so so good!! I followed a recipe by Emmy’s Blog. For 3 eggplants, there wasn’t enough breadcrumb mixture or egg mixture. So if you want to make a big one, then you’ll just need to whisk some more eggs and put some more breadcrumbs into your bowl. I ended up just using like less than 2 eggplants. The rest are sliced in my fridge...I’ll have to figure out what to do with them later. Anyway, great recipe. It was absolutely delicious!!! I ate 4 slices...Blake are 6 and Grayson ate 5!!! So it was definitely a hit!!! All of my ingredients came from Whole Foods via Prime Now...great prices, great quality...never any complaints from me!! Enjoy! And comment below if you make this and you think it’s as good as we did!

Stove Top Pot Roast

Hello again, people! As a lot of you know, I like cooking. I love to find recipes and use them as my template! I rarely ever follow a recipe exactly as it’s written. So, the other day I made a stove-top pot-roast! I used a mixture of Ree Drummond/ Pioneer Woman and Chungah Rhee/ Damn Delicious . They’re literally 2 of my favorite cooks. So, if we are being 100% honest, almost everything I cook is inspired by their recipes! Anyway...I started by slicing the onions and the potatoes in half and chopping the carrots and celery into edible chunks. Threw a little olive oil into my pot and heated that up...then I seared my onions (flat side down). Once they were nice and browned, I removed them onto a plate and threw my carrots into the pan for a few minutes. Once those were seared a little, I placed them onto the onion plate. Now, you’re ready to sear that roast!! Add a tad more olive oil to the pot and then throw that bad boy in there. You’re going to want to try and move it around.....
