Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrsamflotdayfri! I have a little personal tidbit of info that I think you might find surprising. I’m severely underestimating your interests, in other words. Get this, I can stick my hand down a garbage disposal without barfing or passing out. With the motor off, you psycho! But I can. It took me a long long […]

Homemade Roasted Garlic Butter
Did you see that title?! We are so getting our farmer on. You guys, this was the very first time I made butter from scratch. To put it mildly, I was completely freaking my face off. Butter! From scratch! Have you made this before? Science is so bananas. To watch a liquid transform into a […]
Monthly Mixtape: Give Me All the Drama in a Garden or a Library or a Flower Shop or a Coffee Shop
It’s October, how could we not! (also you asked for it.) This is essentially part two to my “I Need to Feel Like I’m in a Jane Austen Movie” mix. An extension of that flow, that angst, those swells and swirls. Cellos that bottom out with so much emotion that your heart nearly collapses. Piano […]
Honeycrisp Apple Galette
While it’s still September, let’s squeeze in one more apple situation. You can’t be upset about this. Galette! My favorite. Also called free-form pie, which I thoroughly dig. This version today will have us experiencing honeycrisp apples and earthy rosemary to the highest degree. And we’ll sweeten with the most delicious agave nectar (honey is […]
Friday Flotsam
Faaaarrrrrrraaaaaaayyyyyyyyddddddaaaaaaai. I bought readers! READERS. Glasses. Like Meryl Streep. I finally bought some. Listen, I’m not going to bore you with how I lost a favorite pair of Warby Parkers two years ago at a winter basketball practice, and am criminally overdue for an eye exam and am in desperate need of a new pair […]
Apple, Kale and Turkey Panzanella Salad
I’m not sure who came up with BREAD salad but I’d like to shake their hand and cry into their shoulder for an entire afternoon. Because this one is out of control. We have thinly sliced honeycrisp apples, perfectly toasted seasoned baguette, chopped kale, plenty of diced parmesan cheese and chopped deli turkey because hi, […]
Salmon Piccata Bowls
Salmon bowls! But piccata style, baby. We’re huge bowl fans around here (read: completely obsessed), so I came up with a fun way to have piccata flavors but with rice! And salmon! And one more explanation point just for the hay of it! It’s fairly simple, easy enough for a school night, but also packs […]

Frrrrrreedeelooloolaahlaah! UM. Hold on. Have any of you ever heard of this word? Pseudocyesis. (100% had to google, copy and paste.) It’s also known as phantom pregnancy. Which, okay, I can wrap my head around. But DID YOU KNOW that with this pseudocyesis syndrome, the belly actually grows? It grows like a baby is in […]
A Few of My Favorite Things: Fall Edition!
Hey heeeeeey, let’s have a little favorite things action today! (promise I’ll never say it like that again.) You guys seemed to really get into the Cozy Winter edition. And the Summer edition was fire. So, here we are with an autumn edition! Which is my favorite edition of all the favorite things and their […]
Chickpea Salad with Cucumbers and Red Onion
We can obsess over a quick protein salad, can’t we? We can. And this one is speedy, beany, herby and crunchy. What’s not to love. I didn’t roast these chickpeas, but get on with that if it fuels you. I looooove roasted chickpeas to freaking death, but my impatience won this time. Jars open, beans […]
