Can we just call this the official Mother’s Day meal right now? ‘Cuz Imma ’bout to. I just did. And yes, you’re seeing both sun-dried tomatoes and grape tomatoes because I’m a raging rebel like that. Okay AND, this is a one-pan meal, besides the angel hair pasta. But this is where you can Willy […]

Creamy Penne with Tomatoes, Kale and Sausage
Oh. Yeah. This. Right. Yep. Yeppers. I know I shouldn’t do this to you. But on the other hand, it would be such a disservice on my part if you didn’t know about this dish. I almost don’t even want you to scroll down to the ingredient photo because you’re going to pass out at […]
Skillet Tex-Mex Orzo with Jalapeno Chicken Sausages
Another one-pan show-stopper! But this time we’re going the Texish-Mexish route. (it’s a thing.) I’ll tell you the background of how this recipe came to be. (you’re like, “you don’t have to.) I was perusing the pantry a while back, trying to find something for something else, when I found the green enchilada sauce next […]
Buttermilk Chicken with Lentils and Collard Greens
YES MORE LENTILS. But would you believe I shot this recipe back in February? It’s the truth I speak right now. And I paused on posting this for the longest time and I have no idea why. Lentils are pantry. Red onions last FOREVUR (Sandlot style), you can make your own buttermilk to avoid the […]
Friday Flotsam
FFFFFFFFFFrudub. This is a tree in my back yard and I’m still trying to figure out how it’s even real. And it’s getting bigger and bigger and more and more vibrant each year! Which is . . . well, on par and quite expected for the whole time continuum thing. Reminds me of an old […]
Rustic Seafood Soup
Another soup! Yes, it’s apparently soup week here at this internet website URL blog site web. And OKAY – this is another recipe that I shot (and snarfed) before the pandemic was declared and the world came to a halt. So what we’re going to do with this soup is stand back, look at the […]
Lentil, Andouille Sausage and Swiss Chard Soup
It’s hard to see with a naked eye, but there are in fact lentils in there, too! They pulled a Titanic for the photo, though. This soup is one of those simple, glorious umami-ish pleasures in life. Every ingredient is already such a class act that it doesn’t really need too much in the end. […]
Friday Flotsam
FRRRRRRRRRReeweedeeseelee. You do realize that the only photos I’ll be able to share with you over the next 126 weeks are nature photos? And maybe the rando shoe photo here and there. And a kid-on-a-bike or a in-a-blow-up-backyard-pool photo sprinkled in. Maybe my morning coffee on the outside patio table with a plant or a […]
Chocolate Chip Ricotta Loaf
I baked! With a cheese! Which is super popular apparently. And holy loafers I’m a changed woman. Because you know I’m not a baker. I don’t bake. I have one bread that I make like a maniac, but outside of that I’m a baby mouse lost in a chimney. (<–it’s a thing.) But there was […]
Chipotle Pimento Grilled Cheese Sandwiches
I MEAN. . . I saw this headline the other morning in my daily New York Times newsletter that said “Anything for Dinner is OK.” And out loud, verbally to no one I said, “DUDE I HEAR THAT.” Matter of fact, right at this moment I’m eating leftover cornbread from a few nights ago with […]
