PW & Tasty Kitchen

One of my domestic goddess (or queen in her instance) role models has to be The Pioneer Woman - Ree Drummond. I'm convinced that this woman can do it all. And should be put on a pedestal. High in the sky. With the Gods.

Ok, maybe I'm exaggerating a little. But still.

So a quite a few months ago I stumbled upon her website while looking for fun Photoshop actions to play with for photos and crafts and such and I just haven't been able to turn back. Got a cowboy fetish? She's got (lots) of picture of chaps and Wranglers. Love photography nd learning more about shooting with your DSLR? She's got it and teaches you more than just a trick or two. Like a good romance story? Read her Black Heels to Tractor Wheels and you will find yourself in love with Marlboro man too. Interested in Homeschooling and/or do you Homeschool? Well, yep, she does that too. And cooking? Don't even get me started on the cooking. Her recipes on Tasty Kitchen have made me salivate more times then I care to admit.

So when I realized she had a cookbook. I made a mental note and knew we'd become great friends. (The cookbook and I; not Ree and I. Though I'm sure we'd be BFFs if we met)

So I made a trek to my local library and picked up her book, The Pioneer Woman Cooks. And holy cow. There are no words. I opened up and became enthralled. I ended up finishing the book in less than two hours.


Her recipes are amazing, her pictures are inspiring, her stories are funny and everything I've tried so far...tastes amazing.

 Seriously, if you haven't at least thumbed through her cookbook, I definitely recommend it. At least browse around on her website and blog and get some ideas. Out of like twenty meals I've made of hers, only one didn't pan out the greatest for us. And that was mostly because it had mushrooms in it and M hates them.

So do it. You won't regret it!
