Korean Braised Short Ribs
I don’t make short ribs often because honestly they are pretty pricey for the amount of meat you actually get and they are fattier than the cuts of meat I normally eat. I know, I know – fat adds flavor. And while I agree, it doesn’t mean you have to always enjoy it! Whole FoodsContinue reading “Korean Braised Short Ribs”
PDX Cookies – Pt. 2
Monstrous. Gigantic. Mega. Just a few words to describe these huge cookies. But don’t let the size fool you or dissuade you from trying them. The bigger the better, right? At least that is what Texas always says…although maybe we shouldn’t follow their example. In this case though I think we should – these areContinue reading “PDX Cookies – Pt. 2”
Roxy’s Ice Cream Shop
I remember Roxy’s ice cream being so delicious it was hard to say no to for an after dinner dessert or just a midday treat. My most recent trip there was a bit different. I was so excited to grab some creamy ice cream with my mom – ice cream is her favorite so itContinue reading “Roxy’s Ice Cream Shop”

Clarity Coffee
Clarity coffee used to be another one of my favorite coffee shops when I lived in OKC. It was vibrant and colorful and bright – a real cool space to grab a coffee and have a conversation! They featured local artists that often painted/drew very colorful art. On my recent trip, the store had changedContinue reading “Clarity Coffee”

Beef Stew + Roasted Potatoes
I know soup season is in full swing, but I feel like stew is left out and underrated. I love a good hearty, meaty stew this time of year because it is comforting and filling. Growing up, the winter months were always my favorite because my mom would pull out her crockpot/dutch oven and makeContinue reading “Beef Stew + Roasted Potatoes”
Palo Santo
I have been to Palo Santo a few times, but it was before the days of my blogging, so on my recent trip to OKC I stumbled in there on a Tiki Themed night, but only managed to get this single picture. They are located in the downtown farmer’s market district next to The LoadedContinue reading “Palo Santo”
Fuzzy’s Taco Shop
Oh Fuzzy’s! A true classic. Cheap, delicious tacos that pack a ton of flavor with their simple ingredients. They are consistently good and never fail to satisfy me. Their menu is pretty simple but honestly that is what makes it so delicious. They’ve got tacos, burritos, nachos, salads, and more! I always get their tacosContinue reading “Fuzzy’s Taco Shop”
