Is it too early in the week for a salad? What if it has cashews in it? And the dressing has cashew butter in it? Still too early? I’d been on the phone with my sister the other day after a birthday lunch date she had with my mom. “What did you eat?” I demand. […]

Friday Flotsam
FREE. DEE. DOO. (that’s Friday. with a doo at the end. i’m gross.) Where to even start!? Oh – books and T.V. Duh. THANK YOU for all your interesting book suggestions last week! I’ve made a little file in my iphone notes with all the titles, like a total nerd, and plan on making my […]
Clam Appetizer Dip (Rewind Recipes)
I know what you’re thinking. Because I thought it, too. It’s like a car accident. You can’t NOT look. You have to know more. How did this happen? Is everyone okay? Did she seriously use canned clams in a dip? Yes. I did. And it works! I promise it does. You look mad. Please don’t […]
Kale Caesar Salad with Grilled Chicken
Thiiiiiiiiiiis. I’m almost speechless. I said almost, don’t get too giddy. This kale caesar salad is straight up madness. First of all, it’s kale. Dark, earthy Tuscan kale, sliced into the tiniest ribbons and fist bumped for good measure. Then we have brioche croutons. An idea that comes from a Saturday morning PBS/Martha-thon. Then we […]
Friday Flotsam
Fraaaaaaiiiiiieeeeedaaaaaiiiiiieeeeee. (<—-?) Well, it’s over. Parenthood wrapped up their epic tear-inducing series with yet another epic tear-inducing finale. WARNING! SPOILERS! If you’ve not yet watched last night’s finale P-Hood, skip to the next paragraph! I don’t want haters. Ugh, that endiiiiiing. I need to go back and watch it 58,245 more times on Hulu. But […]
Cancan Chicken Casserole (Rewind Recipes)
New series day! Not to be confused with old series day, or new series week, because neither of those are actual things. I don’t think. Anyway! One of my little goals this year is to go back to cookbooks for inspiration. I’ve been in such a recipe developing rut for so long eees startin’ to […]
Orzo with Collard Greens, Sausage Meatballs and Sundried Tomatoes
I swear to you I eat more than just Italian sausage. But this time they’re in meatball form (!), so it’s . . . different? The funny thing is, remember when I was telling you about that meal that totally failed, so we looked at chunks of severed hair instead? Right. Well, I made this […]
Friday Flotsam
Fraaaaaahdaaaaaaah! We made it. We made it to Frahdah. Praise the Lahdah. We’ve had a good week ’round hur. On Tuesday I hosted a play date! As seen above. Those treats were soooo delish. Let me tell you about this biz. Farm fresh bread, goat cheese, honey, cherry tomatoes, parsley flakes, coarse salt. Das it. […]
The Will Show: A Haircut
I was totally going to post a recipe today. I was. But then . . . spices separated, lentils turned to mush, there was a bitterness I just couldn’t place. Sooo, let me put my thing down, flip it and reverse it, and I’ll bring the recipe to you another day. In the meantime, I’ll […]
Smoked Salmon and Parsley Pesto Sandwiches
It’s spring! It’s not spring. I’ll tell you what, though. It’s felt like spring for about four straight days. How is it possible that KC has had 60-degree weather in the middle of January? It’s either just a beautifully lucky fluke in the meteorological undulation, orrrr we’re all going to die. So while we try […]
