The Paula Deen of ATX


This post is about my best cook of a friend, Lacey. This girl can turn a bare refrigerator into a seven course meal of goodness. I don't know where she stashes her recipes, but if they were written down in a book, it'd be worth it's weight in gold.

Lacey invited Jesse and I over for dinner and I think I was sitting at her table before our phone conversation ended because I've learned to never pass on one of her meals. I definitely broke the speed limit to get there fast. To put it simply, this bitch can cook!

Steve and Lacey had fired up the grill before we arrived and they were already cooking some shrimp. Now, I have to let you know that I'm kinda scared of shrimp. One bad shrimp experience can ruin a person for a lifetime. I try to stick with fried shrim only, but I knew I couldn't pass on anything that came out of Lacey's kitchen. She grilled the shrimp up with some oil and bell peppers and it was so good I ate them all (well, maybe I saved them one or two). I thought about leaving some just in case someone else wanted one, but I lost control of my hands and just kept grabbing.

Then, we had some grilled pork tenderloin, corn on the cob, potato salad and baked beans. I love you Paula Deen, I mean Lacey.

I give Lacey's kitchen 5 Stars, the highest possible rating, plus two extra stars just because I can. Now get in there and make me some peach cobbler...yummm.
