Dadgum it's cold! Even here in Georgia old man win Dadgum it's cold! Even here in Georgia old man winter has apparently dug in to stay a while. So... our best suggestion? Put on a cozy sweater and make a batch of decadent slow cooker hot chocolate. Then top it with something pretty and maybe even stir in a little adult libation to amp up that warmth even more.

She Crab Soup! Well, we're going to be honest. Thi She Crab Soup! Well, we're going to be honest. This soup is creamy, delicious, easy to make and full of crab flavor.

This marinated chicken has been a favorite around This marinated chicken has been a favorite around here for more years than we care to admit we've been cooking chicken. It's nothing fancy. Chances are you've got all the ingredients already. And, yes, if you noticed those pretty grill marks you've figured out our favorite way to cook it, but it's just great cooked in a skillet too. We like to prepare a whole pile of it and then have it for salads, sandwiches, nachos or just a nice, lean piece of chicken with some veggies.

Raise your hand if you're trying to eat healthier! Raise your hand if you're trying to eat healthier! This past year we may have gone overboard with the whole comfort food thing, but we kept telling ourselves "we deserve this" "It's been a hard year..." And then what happened? It came back and bit us right in the butt! At least we can start weaning ourselves out of those bad habits with something fresh, delicious and green like this lemony and garlic-y asparagus. You can still have a little treat later. I mean we don't want to go totally cold turkey, but just get started wrapping our heads around healthy eating again.
