One of the announcers on FOX suggested a few weeks ago that they could bet money that the winner of the NASCAR race would have a “K” in his name. Keselowski Kevin Harvick Kyle Busch Kurt Busch Kyle Larson Kasey Kahne That’s good odds. These are all good drivers. When I started my Victory Lane…

A Recipe for the Birds
Right now I’m watching two birds devour the suet I made them. The suet was super fun to make. We’ve just been buying the suet up until now. Check out this suet recipe! My measurements were eyeballed. I added a bit more peanut butter because I was low on lard. I had been collecting the lard…
Truex and Taco Salad
What more natural than having Martin Truex* win his first race of the year after being the champion last season? What is more naturally gluten-free than taco salad? Welcome back to the latest food challenge where I make a dish that starts with the same letter as the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series champion of the…
Venison Meatballs and Victory Lane
Thoughts on Venison Two weekends ago I made these delicious, gluten-free, venison meatballs! The creator of the recipe described herself as living off the land with her husband. We aren’t “living off the land,” but we have some wonderful friends who gave us a bunch of ground venison and stew meat, so I am having…
iCeCream & iRacing
A few nights ago I was craving ice cream and we didn’t have any. However, I had bananas. I googled banana ice cream. It is so easy and delicious! You just need frozen bananas. It was so close to the real thing! I added a little vanilla and some Reeses Pieces. Yummm!! iRacing is very…
Roots and Recipes
I’ve been cooking dinner with Rachael Ray a lot lately. She makes some food in the morning, I record it, and then I watch it at night when I make some other food. I’m a fan. Rachael seems so down to earth. Lately, I’ve made gluten-free chicken pot pie, AMAZING venison stew (my friend’s recipe), turkey…
Good for Eating: The Fastest Apple Pie I Ever Made
I didn’t make a mental note of what variety we picked today at Meadows Farms, but the sign said, “good for eating!” Of course! It was the perfect day, but we missed having our cameras to capture the romantic colors and vineyards. We made up for our “camera-lessness” in the orchard with a time-lapse video…
Good Meals
My mom encouraged me to find about 20 good meals after we got married so that I could always have ingredients on hand and not have to worry about what to have for dinner. I was meal planning for the week, and I think I am finally there! Kris likes these meals, and I like…
Honesty & Twizzlers
We’ve been avoiding eating gluten for about a year. You’d think we would have the hang of it by now. When encountering a food, we continue to ask ourselves, “Is this gluten-free?” …Well, at least Kris still asks this question. Recently, I found a Twizzler at a party, neatly displayed with the other food. I…
GF Routes in the OBX
On our honeymoon we stayed in Duck, near Kitty Hawk, Nags Head, and Corolla, in Outer Banks, North Carolina. We drove all the way there and had a wonderful time. The image above is what we had for breakfast – leftover gluten-free rolls from our reception and Reeses Peanut Butter Cups. Since this is a blog…
Figs, Guava, and Free Orange Juice
Married life is good. It’s very good. Very very good. And we are continuing our quest to eat through the alphabet of fruits and vegetables. C is for steamed ranch cauliflower. D is for dates. They look like turds. So do figs (F). I laughed when I opened them! But they taste like candy! Kris hasn’t tried…
Alphabet Eating Update
A In “A” weeks, the success story was Artichoke Alfredo sauce. I served it over gluten free spaghetti and steaks that were on sale from Valentine’s Day. This was not the vegetable that I was predicting would win. Parmesan cheese makes everything good! B For “B” week, we served our guests berries over organic greens tossed with…
