Yes, it’s true… this morning, my favorite Nashville radio deejays announced that the woman herself will be in concert here in April–be still my heart I am in heaven! Since I wasn’t able to make it to her concert in Atlanta, I was keeping my fingers crossed she’d come visit her “little monsters” in Music […]

It’s time for all those beloved fall recipes to make their debut, and when I think of fall, I think of game-day chili {tailgating at the game AND at home}, anything with apples, pumpkin spiced everything, and lots of soups to keep me warm on chilly nights!
