FREEEFRAAAFROOOOFRUUUUUfriday. WHEN DID TACO BELL GET SO EXPENSIVE? (Why am I yelling.) No but, when did Taco Bell get on board with normal rip-off prices? I’ve always relied on the TB for the dirtiest, cheapiest tacos, and I mourn that that era is behind us. Get this, we spent nearly FIFTEEN DOLLARS at Taco Bell […]

Thai Turkey Lunch Wrap
I don’t really know why I call it Thai. The coconut? The coconut! This is a quick lunch that I’ve been making for a few months now, and it never occurred for me to put it on the blog until semi recently when my noggin woke up from a ding dong coma. DUH, you guys […]
Friday Flotsam
FREEDER. I have a weird question. (you’re like, OH SHOCKER.) You know how in Instagram Stories, a lot of the responses to a thread are hearts? The heart emoji? I have a theory. IT’S AN ACCIDENT. Hear me out! A) The heart is so out of place. It’s not closure to a conversation like, “Dawson […]
Turkey Pesto Meatloaf
This is summer’s way of allowing us comfort food. BECAUSE THAT THING IS PESTO PACKED. (sorry to scream.) This is a recipe I’ve had in mind since January. But it had to be basil pesto, and it had to be fresh from the garden, GOSH DARNIT. And I can honestly say, it was even more […]

Skillet Cheesy Corn Dip
Dog days. And I hate the words dog and days back to back. But it’s the gruesome reality we face. It’s the injustice ways of Mama Nay Nay with her lethal dragon breath upon our fragile skin. And I KNOOOOW turning on the oven is travesty. I get it! I do. But. It’s our only […]
No-Churn Rocky Road Ice Cream
AS IN, you can make this today or right now. Listen, it’s the second half of the summer. The heat and humidity have maliciously teamed up to make every waking second of our lives A YUCKY, SLOPPY, STICKY LIVING HELL. Revenge? Now traditionally, I do know that rocky road ice cream simply consists of chocolate […]

It was Father’s Day eve, 2017. A mere three weeks ago. Um, do you remember how hot it was?! Remember how I (adorably?) updated you every other […]
Summer Gnocchi with Corn and Smoked Sausage
And jalapeno! Can’t forget the jalapeno. Because jalapeno. So the story behind theez har recipay: I have a winter version. Actually, it’s not so much a winter version, but an all-the-time-in-my-face version. Kale, Italian sausage, GUH. You know my love for those two words back to back. The other week I made the kale/sausage version […]

That means 24 playlists. Plus today’s mix which makes 25! (I’m good at math.) I’m going to keep this super short, because I know […]
