#ad This cute digital announcement was created by Paperless Post.

Hello friends! I’ve been quietly transitioning for some time into a blog that focuses on simplifying so we can learn to have more joy in food moments. I really appreciate you coming back often to check out what is new, your encouraging comments and overall support of all things related to food happiness. Thank you!

Simplifying to me means focusing on the simplicity of fresh ideas when it comes to the exploration of food, eating and enjoying life. As you know, I’ve been devoted to conveying a sense of joy, curiosity and wonder of all the touch points of eating coupled with a fun and upbeat tone since I started this blog in 2009. That won’t change. I’ve always been focused on eating well as I know you are, too.

So, what WILL change?

 

  • nwafoodie now automatically redirects to thejoyofeatingwell. This means you do nothing on your part whenever you want to access old recipes or content. Seamless!

 

  • NWAFOODIE will still be active as nwafoodie on Instagram and have a dedicated page on thejoyofeatingwell.com so my local peeps can stay in-the-foodie-know. Take a look at the menu on this blog page. See? There’s nwafoodie as a page link. Click on it and you will see all posts that are Arkansas-specific.

 

  • I have created a new thejoyofeatingwell on Instagram that will be focused on all things related to simplifying so we can have more joy in food moments. Let’s follow each other!

 

During the month of January, you will slowly see me updating this site and social with new blog headers and photos that reflect thejoyofeatingwell. Overall content will be more streamlined (I am so excited about this!) and geared toward helping health-conscious foodies like myself who are caught up in the busyness of life to understand that eating well can easily be accomplished by keeping it simple so that preparing and serving food becomes one of our most joyful pleasures of living.

Of course, I will continue to have a secondary focus on Arkansas. I will continue helping local foodies explore their backyard and understand that they don’t have to live in a big city to have great resources at their fingertips so that they can be in-the-foodie-know.

I had fun playing around with the digital stationary options at Paperless Post to come up with a playful announcement! If you are a subscriber to nwafoodie, you will receive this cute interactive digital ecard announcing the upcoming changes to this blog. Beyond this announcement, I look forward to using Paperless Post for special events such as Thanksgiving, Memorial Day and July 4thbarbecue occasions. There are many options available and everything is customizable with fonts, colors and designs. Well, I say customizable in the easiest sense. I am no designer and Paperless Post made the process super easy. Simply purchase digital “coins” and input the email address to whomever you want to send your flyer, card, invitation or announcement to. Simple.

Do you have any questions that I can answer for you?

 

What do you think of when you see the phrase “the joy of eating well?”

 

Happy joyful eating.

Lyndi

Eat well, my friends. Eat well.

Once a month they do a drop in my neighborhood and I always look forward to the bounty of foods and household goods. My order may be small but I love joining in with everyone else to unload the truck! You may have a drop in your neighborhood. If you’re curious, I can tell you more!

This was a big "oops" moment. As I pulled out my t This was a big "oops" moment. As I pulled out my tub with all my handmade serving bowls (and one lovely @lecreuset dish), they all came crashing to the floor.⁠
⁠
Crash!⁠
Smash!⁠
Shock.⁠
⁠
Honestly, I was happy I used them all the time, and they had a good run.⁠

I learned long time ago to use what you have. Otherwise, why have it?
The feeling after you ate too much. The feeling after you ate too much.
Ad. Oh, hi there. You’re pretty busy right now, Ad. Oh, hi there. You’re pretty busy right now, aren’t you? Okay, I will make this brief. ⁠

Print, bookmark, or pin this Easy Cheesy Roasted Garlic Chicken Skillet Slider recipe. Better yet, make it for dinner!⁠
⁠
You know I’m all about being helpful. And healthy! I’ve also been afraid to walk down that frozen or prepared foods aisle at the store, thinking, “Nope, not for me. They’re not healthy.” ⁠
⁠
I feel good about @kevins.natural.foods because I know I can still eat well by keeping them on hand, whether for the four-o-clock pinch or meal planning.⁠
⁠
I first tried Kevin’s Cauliflower Mac n Cheese when it was a special buy at Aldi’s. The ingredients were simple and pure, and we were delighted to discover they tasted great!⁠
⁠
Kevin’s also has a line of delicious five-minute entrees like Peppercorn Steak, Cilantro Lime Chicken, and Roasted Garlic Chicken.⁠
⁠
My recipe for Easy Cheesy Roasted Garlic Chicken Skillet Sliders only has seven ingredients and seven steps. Best of all, you can complete it from skillet to table in ten minutes!⁠

Turkey?⁠

Green bean casserole?⁠
⁠
Mashed potatoes?⁠
⁠
Sweet potato casserole?⁠
⁠
Corn?⁠
⁠
Peas?⁠
⁠
Gravy?⁠

The correct answer is all of them! But mostly, you can’t have Thanksgiving without turkey, sweet potatoes, and veggies. It’s un-American.⁠
⁠
This crazy-awesome pie is stuffed with an abundance of shredded turkey, sweet potatoes, corn, peas, and gravy – Ding! Ding! Ding! – You guessed correctly! It also has ooey-gooey cheese and sour cream to add a layer of comforting delight.⁠
⁠
Link in bio for my Thanksgiving-inspired pot pie that uses three @wickspies 8″ raw circles. One for the base and two to cut lattice strips (using a ravioli cutter) so that it looks extra pretty. Of course, you could just use two raw circles. One for the base and one for the top. Just cut some slits on the top crust so that some ooey-gooey delightfulness can do its thang.⁠

“Just like becoming an expert in wine–you learn by drinking it, the best you can afford–you learn about great food by finding the best there is, whether simply or luxurious. Then you savor it, analyze it, and discuss it with your companions, and you compare it with other experiences.” – Julia Child
