I’m actually kind of speechless. Except for the fact that I’m not. Ohhhhh, you guys I’m this close to losing the last of my one and a half marbles over these cheesy stacks of splendor and I want to use all caps so bad but I’m trying to be better about it but we all [...]

Roasted Moroccan Chicken Salad
I don’t guess I need to go into detail about how loudly I screamed last night when you know who made it into the the Idol finale, do I? What about how ridiculously awesome I looked with imaginary pom poms cheering, “TWO FOUR SIX EIGHT WHO DO WE WANNA RUN AWAY WITH TO A REMOTE [...]
Vegetarian Mexican Salad Boats
Row, row, row your boat, gently down the. . .plate. So, I can’t decide if it’s really really sad or really really awesome that the only Oscar nominated movie I’d seen was Bridesmaids. And on top of that, I can’t decide if it’s really really embarrassing or really really sweet that I got 14 lumps [...]
Black Bean and Sweet Potato Tacos with Swiss Chard Pesto
SWISS CHARD PESTO. Thaaaaaaaaat’s it. Remember when I showed you the leetle Instagram teaser shot this weekend and no one could guess what kind it was? Man, that was like a pesto joy ride for me. And my hair got all windblown. You’re not convinced on this yet, are you? Neither was Aaron. When I [...]
Indian-Spiced Roasted Vegetables Over Lentils
It’s time to be a good girl. It’s time to snuggle some vegetables, pony up to some fiber, group hug some fruit, and drink my way through an Olympic-sized swimming pool. Minus the chlorine. Not that I can’t appreciate a juicy mcgruicy burger from time to time, but after sampling 6 (SIX, you guys) of [...]
Indian-Spiced Sweet Potato Soup
The Great Vegetarian Challenge: Day 6 Remember when I left 2 days open this week because I had no idea where the course of my life would take me? Well, one of those days was yesterday. I had a girlfriend over mid-afternoon to nibble on cheese and sip wine, and as the cozy rain showers [...]
The Root of Happiness
I always forget how much I appreciate a big salad for dinner. They tend to be a lunchtime staple for me, and so often the idea of coming home after a long day to a plate of lettuce leafs lacks a bit of satisfaction appeal. Plus, it’s winter. We are supposed to be craving starches [...]
It’s In the Wash
This weekend I: * Washed some windows * Washed 7 winter blankets * Washed the dog * Washed my face with a brand new bar of my favorite Burt’s Bees face soap * Washed and sterilized my kitchen counters * Watched Aaron wash his nose 794 times * Washed my hair (I no longer look [...]
Roast Chicken – Check.
Yard tasks – check. House tasks – check. Eye roll directed at oversized zucchini – check. Dehydrator works double shift for both harvested peppers and zucchini – check. Never get out of yoga pants all weekend – check. Nap during football game – check. Look at ever growing leaf pile in front yard – check. [...]
I Do Say Hash Alot.
I have the house to myself today. Do you know what this means? I get to do yoga, deep clean, take a long walk, sit on the sofa and read my book in silence and, well, blog! (Cue angels singing.) So to get my day started, I made one of my favorite breakfast creations. It [...]
