Fridel ay hee Fridel ay hee Fridel ay HEE HOOOOOO. Quick poll! Wait, are you missing me telling you about my dreams? Thing is, I haven’t had really anything crazy vivid to report. However, last night I did dream that I was walking down the dark halls of a deserted mall to find an empty […]
Spinach, Mushroom and Ricotta Crepes
Crepes! As in – the real deal. From scratch. From crepe scratch. Plus an obscene amount of melted mozzarella because these are the ridiculous decisions of my life.

Spanish Chorizo with Collards and White Beans
Super simple sassy Spanish sauté! (don’t punch) I’m not kidding when I say this one is seeeemple. The legwork (if you can even call it that) is all in the prep.
