Cooper and his BFF Kerrie made her famous Dump & Done Ramen Salad, adapted from Chrissy Teigen’s Cravings cookbook. Dump & Done Ramen Salad 3 (3-ounce) packages of chicken-flavored ramen (or pork, if you prefer) 1 (12-ounce) package of broccoli slaw 2-3 shallots, thinly sliced 1 cup frozen peas ¾ cup corn kernels (from a can is just fine!) ½ cup […]
The kids are gone for two weeks – and Todd’s still at work – so Cooper’s drinking and cooking Blue Apron…and just rambling about whatever mess enters my mind. Also, gushing about The Underground Railroad, Oprah’s newest Book Club pick.
On this episode of #CoopedUp…Lord only knows! My kids took over and my (not so) inner stage mom came out. Plentiful “y’alls” guaranteed.
On yet another riveting episode of CoopedUp! - also known as “Cooper says y’all endlessly while unpacking Blue Apron” and “damn, he has good hair” – I talk about cooking, Father’s Day, the Ticketmaster settlement (did you get your free tickets?!), Bengay & back pain #gettingold, and of course…my beloved cheap wine.
One of our favorite bloggers – cutie pie Alex Young from Eat, Style, Dallas – has designed a special edition t-shirt, exclusively through Bullzerk, another fave of ours. In addition to be cute (both Alex and the shirt), it benefits a great cause. Alex tells it better than we ever could on Facebook… Here’s the link: https://bullzerk.myshopify.com/collections/mens-tees/products/love-is-love-orlando-tribute?variant=20836059713
In previous videos, I’ve casually mentioned that we have a “Circus Room” in our house, complete with a big top tent, stages (plural) and clown murals. A bunch of y’all have asked for a tour…and who am I to not give you what you want?! Enjoy the craziness while it lasts – it’s all being torn out very soon.
For our last night in Positano, our hotel – Hotel Marincanto – surprised us with an upgrade to the Honeymoon Suite. This suite was so baller (it had an indoor pool!) that we didn’t leave again until the next morning when we had to head back to Rome for our last night in Italy.
Claire – in her dance class get up – joins me as we unpack this week’s Blue Apron box, yell at the dogs and talk about pink lemons (I didn’t even know they existed!), my little brother’s professional wrestling career, successful friends (Go Promise – Congrats on your TapInfluence success & WSJ coverage!) and a frog’s reproductive process…naturally. And, for reasons […]
I’ve officially jumped on the ingredients-and-recipes-in-a-box bandwagon. At the prompting of friends (and a pretty swell “first week free” promo code), I decided to give Blue Apron a shot. The box arrived with great anticipation today. And even though I’m not going to be able to cook my first meal tonight, I did unpack the super cute box. Here’s how […]
Today, my dear, hilarious friend Craig – who you may know as the twisted mind behind the popular “Well, Let Me Say This About That” vlog – and I lunched at Tallywackers, the newly opened restaurant in Dallas’ gayborhood that’s been billed as the male version of Hooters. Between the media coverage we’d seen and the subtle-as-an-ax-wound name, I was […]
