The Beauty in Red Rocks Amphitheater
After describing the natural monstrosity that is Red Rocks Amphitheater countless times to my East Coast-ers, I realized that it’s really a little-known geological miracle sitting 6,450 feet above sea level in Morrison, Colorado!

Slow Cooker Brunswick Stew

Slow Cooker Brunswick Stew
The time is recipe:30!  As many of my friends may know, I have been an avid recipe collector for a very long time. When I was young it was limited to my mom’s old Betty Crocker cookbook.

11 Things I Miss About the Beach

11 Things I Miss About the Beach
Going to the beach is always a nostalgic past time for me. I was born in a city near the ocean, I spent my summers either going to the beach in Maine or the Outer Banks, NC, and my parents even moved to the beach in North Carolina. Sammy and I spent as many weekends...

Upside-Down Pizza

Upside-Down Pizza
It’s Thursday!! Anyone want a throwback? This recipe was another favorite of mine as a kid and just really fully incorporates two of the things that kids seem to love the MOST. First and foremost, pizza!! And secondly, stuff being upside-down. Just look at that mouthwatery golden crust! It’s actually just a can of croissant...

The snow is melting just in time for the mountains to get pounded with another round of storms all week… here’s to hoping that snow mass stays west! I love to ski in the stuff, but we...
