Slow Cooker Creamed Corn

July 9, 2014 By Madison Wetherill Leave a Comment

In the summer, there are few things I love more than quick, simple meals that don’t require the use of an oven. Like a lot of you, I try to rely a lot on my slow cooker over the summer months to keep my house cooler. Grilling is also a summertime favorite and this side makes the perfect companion to most grilled dishes.

Sweet corn is easy to find in the summer, but this dish doesn’t have to be a summertime only dish. It’s perfect year round and it has simple ingredients, which is a must! I love using my slow cooker to make meals so that I don’t even have to be at the house to get the cooking done. [Read more…]

Ever since I studied abroad in Italy, I have loved Italian food even more! I’m not great at steering away from store bought jars of pasta sauce, but I do enjoy learning how to make dishes that are not just the typical pasta that you think of when you think of Italian food.

Hopefully you guys feel like you have started to get to know me over the last few months of posting around these parts. If you didn’t know it already, let me tell you something about me: I love food. I love the actual eating of food but I also love what happens when people come together around the table. I really love food that is simple to make but delicious to eat. Sometimes I’m all about trying a complex recipe, but for every day life, I love easy and quick fixes that still make your palate sing!

Southern Sweet Tea

June 10, 2014 By Madison Wetherill Leave a Comment

When I moved to North Carolina, sweet tea was a bit of a foreign concept to me. For one, I don’t really enjoy the taste of any tea (I know, shameful). Two, my parents have always had unsweetened tea, which is apparently like drinking decaf coffee to any coffee connoisseur. So I can vividly remember the first time my mom and I were in North Carolina visiting my future college and when the waitress asked her sweet or unsweet, she burst out laughing because she forgot that was a thing here.

Anyways, I digress. I’ve never had an issue not liking tea even though I am in the south. The problem came when I married a guy from Virginia. When my best friend would come to visit, she’d always bring a large mason jar of sweet tea. Finally I decided it was time to ask for her prized recipe. She graciously offered to share it with me and let me share it with y’all!
