Jalapeno Cornbread


Grant and I hosted our first dinner party. Guest list to include my sister and her fam, Mom and Dad, Bro and Baby Sis, Grammie and Charlie. In honor of Wursfest yesterday we cooked a German-inspired meal complete with chicken beer brats, jalapeno cornbread and Homemade potato salad. The cornbread went over REALLY well. Thought I would share this SUPER easy recipe.

The Aftermath:






Jalapeño Cornbread

2 eggs, well-beaten
1 package (8 ounce) cream cheese
1 cup cream corn
1 cup cornmeal
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup oil
1/2 cup jalapeños, chopped
1 cup grated cheese
Mix well in order given. Bake at 325° for 45 minutes in an 8 x 8 x 2 pan or loaf pan, 3 5/8 x 7 3/8 inch.

*Note: I wouldn't do quite 2/3 cup of the oil to prevent over-greasiness.

Just for kicks. Such a good uncle...

Bustin' a move


Is it bad that I am super sore today from my dance moves on Halloween??





What could be more fun then a night on the town with my little sis and hubs? Dancing the night away with all of my embarrassing moves?

Halloween Costumes.



Never one to dress up, I decided to put in some effort this year...

Note the hubs dirty 'stache. He was so proud of this. (Rightfully so)

With the "little" sis.

Mistake: CL's Downtown. What was I thinking?

Favorite Boots


I am obsessed with boots. My favorite pair, I have had since my 21st birthday. They have seen many country concerts, late nights at dance halls or just generally beautiful days where I have paired them with a basic dress to add a little country charm. Like today for example.
