Meatless! . . . Tuesday. I’ll admit, I’m not that that creative with vegetarian cooking. Back in the day when I was jazzed about expanding my vegetarian horizons, I tried making tofu a lot. I deep fried little strips. I pan fried little squares. I slipped silken blobs into soups. I even tried baking it! […]

Friday Flotsam
This weeeeeeekaaaaaaaaaaa. I always sound so drained at the beginning of these posts. I can assure you I’m as chipper as a dandy dipper! Except, let me just tell you about this week. It was mainly Monday. Well, it started last Thursday to be exact. (cue Saved By the Bell-style vignette blur to indicate a […]
Polenta, Sausage and Spinach Casserole
Get over here. We have a casserole to talk about. I’m only calling it casserole because I’m originally from Arkansas. But you can call it whatever you so desire! Bake? I like it. It’s strong. Or even lasagna. That was my original plan. But there’s no ricotta in it, so I swapped out lasagna for […]
Reverse Shepherd’s Pie
It’s opposite day! Not really. Actually, this weird arctic nostril blast makes the weather feel like opposite day. But not like, opposite opposite. More like, not really accurate. I’m not making sense. Let’s talk about this flip flop shepherd’s pie! This was the thing. I wanted to EAT the shepherd’s pie, but I didn’t want […]

Friiiiiidee.dee.dee.dee.dee. That’s not an actual song, I’m just an extreme weirdo-tron. Okay so I’m just going to jump right in. Remember that video that was filmed at my house back in August? It’s live! I was hired to be a baker (hahaha) for Foodsaver. But let me warn you of a few things. (aka: my […]
Beer-Battered Fried Calamari Pizza
Babies and pizza! Not to be confused with babies IN pizza. Or babies ON pizza. Or baby pizza. Jess, I’ve been waiting months (years, CENTURIES . . . MILLENNIUMS) to tell you something of utmost vital importance. This is your virtual baby showeeeerrrr! (said like Oprah) Ashley and I came together and rounded up 9257345234 […]

Boo! You were scared. Admit it. Happy Halloween! I always feel like Halloween is the gateway to the holiday season. The entrance to madness-ville. The portal to crazy town. From here on out it’s full speed ahead! I’m terrified. Hold me? Quick story! The above photo, okay, so last Thursday night was the opening reception […]
Homemade Baby Food. Four Recipes, Yo.
Okay, you guys, baby food is ugly. This has been your warning. But it’s soooo easy to make and I just couldn’t get through this phase without sharing a few of my go-to purees for the gremlins. And no, they’re not going to be gremlins for Halloween. Which actually breaks my heart because I seriously […]
That Time I Peed and Passed Out At the Dentist
Oh don’t act so surprised. Let me set the scene for you real quick. As if imagining me on the floor, lights out with urine soaking through my designer denim wasn’t enough. It was the summer of 2004. I had just moved to Kansas City a few months before, so as I began to settle […]
Friday Flotsam
So I’m a couple of flotsam days late. Will you flotsam forgive me? Isn’t it so cool that these tree and nature photos are the very first ones you’ve seen yet this fall? Or probably ever!? I don’t know how I do it. I will say, it’s absolutely insane in KC right now. The colors, […]
