There are three sweet treats anyone can bring to an occasion and instantly become the most popular person in the room: 1.  Krispy Kreme Donuts 2.  Kupcakz Cupcakes 3.  Barbee Cookies That being said Barbee Cookies makes the freshest, thickest and tastiest cookies I have found this side of heaven.  The main thing that gets me is the [...]

In my eyes a select few restaurants can almost seem to do no wrong and for me Bodean’s falls into that elusive category.  Tulsa’s treasure of a restaurant and seafood market is now serving a delicious homemade strawberry balsamic ice cream.  A small container is available for ($3) in the market and it’s worth every penny.  One spoonful of this delectable [...]

Next week is Eric’s birthday so for an early celebration we decided to have dinner at one of his favorite places – Bodean Seafood Restaurant!  We typically only make it to dinner there a couple times a year, and those times are for very special occasions.  You could have a dinner at Bodean’s without breaking [...]

This weekend the weather was beyond beautiful and the perfect time to enjoy a trip to the Cherry Street Farmers’ Market.   The market is open on Saturday mornings from 7am – 11am April 9th - October 22nd.   Pooches are welcome but they must abide by the rules! Parsley, Sage, Rosemary & Thyme! (and so much more)  Think of [...]

So finally after many months and many cravings for it I finally got [...]

Shopping at Whole Foods is an entirely different experience than shopping at most grocery stores, which is evident upon walking into the store. The produce section is filled with bright, fresh fruits and vegetables, the employees are friendly and eager to help, the prepared foods section is extremely clean and tidy, and the bakery is [...]

Today we stopped by Tulsa’s Whole Foods Market to sample a host of amazing Thanksgiving dishes at their food tasting event “Stuffed: A Taste of the Holidays” where Whole Foods showed visitors how people can incoporate healthy, vegan, and organic dishes into the holiday meal.   Many people don’t realize that you can have a healthful [...]

Turducken!  I first heard of it on Andrew Zimmern’s “Bizarre Foods”.  The word is fun to say and it’s even more fun to eat. Hebert’s Specialty Meats has the pleasure of serving up this dish that few dare to make.  I’m not sure if anybody else in Tulsa even makes turducken and I’m not sure if they should even try.  [...]
