FraHAHAHHAHAHAHiday. So I’m digging Glossier! I’m totally into my little Phase 2 Starter Kit purchase thingy. I CAN’T DECIDE (you’re going to get super mad at me) what I think of Boy Brow. Only because I think I need someone to guide me. Remember my eyebrows are like tiny horse hair pube brooms, so they […]

Israeli Couscous Salad with Asparagus and Bacon
Beautiful. Bright. Glorious. But now let’s talk about this salad. This mess is straight up (now tell me) out of control. First of all, look at that color! Don’t you want to punch it in the shin? I don’t eat enough Israeli couscous. Truthfully, I kind of forgot about it, until I spotted it in […]
Creamy Spaghetti with Smoked Salmon and Fried Capers
It’s like brunch and dinner had a hybrid love child. Don’t tell anyone. The way I ended up on this recipe was sort of like a mental joy ride. (you’re like, isn’t that your brain ALL THE TIME?) No comment. I wanted salmon! But like, regular salmon. Salmon that you sear in a pan and […]
Friday Flotsam
FROODOO. Tell me about your VERY FIRST JOB. (I’m just launching right in.) I think first jobs are weird. You know on the application when it says, “Must have at least one year of experience – blah blah blah.” And you’re like, “But I’m coming to you so I can GET the experience, ya boob.” […]
Besties Do Boulder. That Came Out Wrong.
I’M THE KING OF THE WOOOOOOR- wait, that’s not it. I went to Boulder! Boulder, Colorado. You know, the town that’s like, 25 feet from the sun? That one. But the heat is DRY. It’s not like here in KC, where you walk out your front door and immediately morph into SpongeBev Squarepants. It’s a […]
Slow Cooker BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwiches
RIDICULOUS. What’s your favorite pulled meat? Or do the words “pulled meat” give you a Herculean case of the heebie jeebies? Mine? PORK. All the way. Pulled pork for prez. Pulled pork for life. Pulled pork forever. But get this! The other day we found this PICNIC pork roast at the farmer’s market. A picnic […]
Friday Flotsam
FriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiLLELUJAH. I need help. DON’T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT. My coffee grinder just went on the fritz. (not to be confused with, my coffee grinder is puttin’ on the ritz.) It died on me this week! And we’d only had it for six months. What GIVES, grinder. I think it’s my fault. (you’re like, […]
Flatout Flatbread Farmer’s Market Pizza
(This post is definitely in partnership with Flatout Flatbread, but all ramblings and pizza inhalings are totally my own. We coo?) More pizza! And I’m not mad about it. Lately, Aaron and I have been more inspired to let the farmer’s markets dictate our grubbing. Listen now, I’m still a raging planner with a stupid […]
Little Shop of Weidners. AKA: We Like Plants.
Plants! Not to be confused with pants. Although we like pants, too. Never mind. A lot of you, and I mean A LOT OF YOU ask about our houseplants. I think it might be because we have 13 trillion, 723 billion, 294 million and a few more after that. So! I thought I’d walk you […]
Asian Beef and Cabbage
This is one of those “let-the-farmer’s-market-guide-me” meals. Are you annoyed? BECAUSE holy hail. It is crazy. Simple and crazy. Not crazy like, “She’s got a knife in her purse!” or, “Is she really listening to Michael Bolton right now?” But crazy. So crazy that we’ve made it twice and I still want to punch it […]
