Frrrrrrrrruh duuuuuuuhaaaaaah. Sound the alarms because it is the LAST DAY OF JANUARY, EVERYONE. (!!!) Why did this month last 467 weeks. Oh wait, I know. Remember the blizzard we had? That was this month. Not three months ago. Not a year ago. Not an ancient yesterlore ago. THIS MONTH. I’ve already turned the calendar […]
Brittle! I made candy! What even IS 2025. I have zero desire to be a candy maker, or to even make candy on a regular basis. But! I did promise a couple of recipes out of the back of First Frost, and Bev’s here to deliver on that promise. (third person obnoxiously included) I have […]
It’s so winter right now. (said like Will Ferrel in Zoolander) This is a total yummers. Absolute comfort with bangin’ flavors. Not only is it seasoned and seared chicken thighs in a creamy sauce all nestled with pasta shells, we’re topping it with PANCETTA yes girl please. It’s crispy and rich and has so much […]
Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrsamflotdayfri! Dry shampoo. I’ve hit the time in my life when I’m ready to talk about dry shampoo. And use dry shampoo. I don’t know what’s going on with my hair, but my bangs are starting to get a lil’ greasy only one DAY after washing. ONE.DAY. This is not normal for me. I have […]
Brrrrrrrrrr! I mean Frrrrrrrrrr! Where the heck did my Viva Signature Cloth paper towels go? You know how I am about Viva Signature Cloth paper towels. If it was a cult, I would be the leader of picking out our monochromatic outfits. Seriously, are they gone or discontinued or only an online luxury now? Because […]
You know it’s time to slurp. This SOUP! You guys, it is borderline begging territory. The recipe comes from the back of First Frost, the novel I just finished. I put my thing down, flipped it and reversed it and made it my own. Meaning: I roasted my own peppers vs. using a jar. So […]
Frrrrrrreedeedeeeee! First of all, it’s difficult to write these silly blog posts and posts these cozy photos with all the devastation in Los Angeles. I watch in stand-still horror as so, so, so many are losing their homes, their pets, their belongings, their whole lives. It’s unreal. I don’t have the words. I’d never want […]
Before we get too far into 2025, we have to take a proper look back at the books we (I) read in 2024 and have ourselves a little cry. I mean recap. Let’s have a recap. But FIRST. You have to see this adorable TBR book nook thingy that Aaron made me for Christmas. I […]
Fffffffffffffffffffffahdaaaaah! First of all, we have a new refrigerator!!! (<–three exclamation points desperately necessary) Okay, and I swear to you and Pete and the heavens above, I will never mention this fridge saga ever again after today. Hey, I’m sick of hearing myself talk about it, so I cannot imagine how utterly over this you […]
We’re baaa-aaaaaa-aaaaaack! Happy happy January! Are you feeling it yet? Are you in? It always takes you (me) a few days to wrap your (my) head around a NEW YEAR. We’ll talk about it more in detail tomorrow, but for today, why don’t we ease in. With this most cheerful mixtape of all mixtapes. It […]
