"This is something I concocted at home one night. My husband is a super big spicy guy, and things can't get hot enough for him. I threw this together and it turned out sooooooooo good. Adjust seasonings to your comfort level. You get a huge "kick" of heat, but it's like a flavor explosion in your mouth. Hope ya like it. I have a cast iron "hoe cake" sort of pan. It's got 6 small rectangles in it, and it made 10 small cakes. But feel free to just dump it in your cast iron skillet and cook!"

<p>A Very Happy Stay At Home Mom!!!! I have a soon to be 11year old that lives with his dad, his name is JayJay, and 3 living at home with me, and 1 on the way....I'm lovin' life! Ashton will be 8 in January, he's the smartest kid I know! Wrylie will be 6 in February and he's got more passion and caring in his little pinkie than most adults I know!!! And my very personal pride and joy Hennessey. She was born on the 27th of September 2007 and she's my little dollbaby. I love being at home with my children..love paying for ALL the stuff my 2nd grader brings home...soccer fees, and basketball fees, and book orders...I love cartin' my kindergartner around, and then coming home and cuddlin' with my little girl, and shopping for her favorite thing...shoes. My husband and I are as tight as 2 people can be, and I hate it when he leaves for work and can't wait until the clock strikes 4:30 because I know that means he's on his way home. Life is good. I couldn't ask for more.</p>
