Flutter By: December 2012

Thursday, December 13, 2012. What a sweet potato can teach you. I've been thinking about Hanukkah a lot lately. It all started with a sack of sweet potatoes my aunt bought on the side of the road. A bag of sweet potatoes, sounds like no big deal, right? I needed to come up with some more creative ways to eat these sweet treats. 4 sweet potatoes, peeled, and chopped using a food processor. Sweet potato latkes with chipotle sour cream. Latkes, or potato pancakes, frying in oil. For the last several years, ...

Flutter By: My Couponing Method
http://bellaflutterby.blogspot.com/p/blog-page_8.html
Here's my guide. Best of luck! Get the Sunday paper. There are 3 main inserts of coupons that appear in Sunday papers: Proctor and Gamble, RedPlum, and SmartSource. I don't get the paper delivered, so I buy it from one of the street vendors for a dollar on Sundays when I know there will be a good haul of coupons. You can find a calendar of which inserts will be in the paper each weekend. Get the customer cards! Never shop at Kroger without a Kroger card! Subscribe to the www.couponmom.com. The Coupon Mom...

Flutter By: Fried Wild Turkey
http://bellaflutterby.blogspot.com/2013/03/fried-wild-turkey.html
Wednesday, March 27, 2013. Did you know that the water bear, or tardigrade, is the first known animal to survive in space? Or that they are the most complex of extremophiles, withstanding temperatures from almost absolute zero (-459 F) to 304 F? Throw in the weekend trip to Natchez, a trip home to Auburn, and a weekend of dog sitting, and I've been a busy bee. The three precious dogs I was taking care of didn't really appreciate. All the time I was spending with my study books instead of them. Chicken Fr...

Flutter By: Dunleith Historic Inn
http://bellaflutterby.blogspot.com/2013/03/dunleith-historic-inn.html
Thursday, March 7, 2013. Snowflakes were falling as we loaded up the truck and headed south. Holt and I were embarking on another weekend adventure. On this occasion we were going back in time. Well, that’s what it felt like, anyway. Five hours and a Lee Child book-on-tape later, we were arriving at Dunleith Historic Inn in Natchez, Mississippi. Floor to ceiling curtains hid antique glass windows, and a beautiful wooden free standing mirror reflected our sheepish grins. Dined on the strawberries. The ori...

Flutter By: Carnival's Fattened Calf...I Mean Cookie
http://bellaflutterby.blogspot.com/2013/02/carnivals-fattened-calfi-mean-cookie.html
Tuesday, February 12, 2013. Carnival's Fattened Calf.I Mean Cookie. My more fonder memories of Mardi Gras are weekends spent in Mobile with friends and family enjoying the parades and festivities. For most people Mardi Gras is a cause to celebrate, have a great time with friends, get dressed up to attend a ball, and eat King's cake. Meaning farewell to flesh"or carnelevarium. Meaning "to take away or remove meat.". This recipe is modified from. Laura Bush's Texas Governor's Mansion Cowboy Cookie. 1 cup c...

Flutter By: Building character, one wok at a time
http://bellaflutterby.blogspot.com/2013/01/building-character-one-wok-at-time.html
Saturday, January 26, 2013. Building character, one wok at a time. Remember 60 days ago when I posted. About the beginning of waterfowl season in Arkansas? Well tomorrow is the last day of duck hunting season, and I'm sure I'm not the only gal ready to spend more time with her avid waterfowler, who has been missing the last 2 months. Tomorrow, not only marks the end of the season, it's shaving day! Looks like a new man! Umm, ugh, you know those plastic storage bin things you see at Walmart.". You can gue...

Flutter By: February 2013
http://bellaflutterby.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 19, 2013. Waiting in line for Tootsies, on Broadway. Another whirlwind weekend has come and gone and left us feeling as if our weekend break was busier than our work week. It's tempting to pick up dinner on the way home or order pizza, but thank goodness for our wok! A few stock ingredients and you can have dinner on the table faster than Pei Wei can deliver. This Thai shrimp curry had carrots, shallots, garlic, and bell pepper. Thai Shrimp Curry (modified from Emeril Lagasse's recipe).

Flutter By: Olive You
http://bellaflutterby.blogspot.com/2013/05/olive-you.html
Wednesday, May 15, 2013. The countdown until I move to Arkansas has begun. In 2 weeks I'll be boxing, packing, taping, sweating, hauling, and cussing my way over the Mississippi River to Small Town, Arkansas. This will be my fifth move in two years, so I'm hoping to stay in one place for awhile this time. Popped in for a cocktail at our favorite downtown haunt. And strolled down Main Street to arrive at the theater by showtime. Date night on the town. I made olive bread, aka best bread ever. Of olives in...
