If this were an episode of “Friends”, it would be called The One with All the Christmases because all we’ve done this week is Christmas it seems! And hang out at the ranch, of course 😉 Steven had last Friday off, so we took Crawfish out to play at the new ranch. We had time…… Continue reading Red Bank Recap- 12.29.23
For as long as I’ve known my husband, chicken and dumplins have been at the top of his list of favorite foods. When we had been dating for about a year, I went with him to visit his hometown and his mom gave me a dumplin lesson. It was a fun little bonding experience, and…… Continue reading Chicken and Dumplins
We are in the home stretch before Christmas! I feel like I thought I had a ton of time, and then looked up some time last week and realized I was less than two weeks out. Then the rush ensued! I’m almost done shopping (just a few last minute things), and Santa will have some…… Continue reading Red Bank Recap- 12.22.23
I love having a handful of basic staples around that I can make dessert in a pinch if we end up with friends or family over. I’m not always the best at it, but that premise is how these delicious cookie bars were born. Four ingredients and thirty to forty minutes, and you have a…… Continue reading Caramel Toffee Pecan Bars
It’s one week until Christmas! Today I wanted to share some of our decor and a little tradition we have with our kids that is fun and helps countdown the days until Christmas. I’ve done it a few different ways, but our new way this year has been my favorite! When my husband was a…… Continue reading Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree(s)!
It’s been a busier than usual and fun week around here! Steven has been on inpatient call this week, but we’ve still packed in plenty of holiday and regular activities. We started off last weekend celebrating closing on the new ranch property with a little fire pit hot dog and s’mores roast and a mini…… Continue reading Red Bank Recap- 12.15.23
If there is a special occasion around here, you can almost bet your bottom dollar we will be eating beef tenderloin. This recipe is pretty foolproof and is always delicious! We typically pair it with scalloped potatoes, mac and cheese, and asparagus, and it becomes an easy fancy meal for any occasion. I use the…… Continue reading Beef Tenderloin
After months of waiting and anticipation, as of Thursday afternoon, Red Bank Cattle Company has a new home! We purchased our first property in this area about three and a half years ago with the intention of it being a hunting property, mainly for waterfowl. After having a few cows to maintain our agricultural tax…… Continue reading Red Bank Ranch
Happy Friday! I hope you are all gearing up for a fun and relaxing holiday cheer filled weekend! We’ve had a few Saturdays recently that we got to have a slow start with time to sleep in, homemade breakfast tacos, and the Arsenal match. Adding in the Christmas decor and having Arsenal at the top…… Continue reading Red Bank Recap- 12.8.2023
Firecrackers were new to us several years ago when we were in residency, and a fellow resident wife sent some to our spouse alliance bake sale. They were one of the first things to go, and were so popular that I knew I needed to figure out how to make them at home. Several years…… Continue reading Red Bank Recipes- Firecrackers
