What. A. Weekend. America had a birthday, fireworks were shot, dogs were frightened, a bush caught on fire, brats and burgers were consumed by the truckloads, warm hugs were shared between old friends, the swimming pool was not once neglected, root beer float shots were consumed by the gallons, chacos never left my feet, quality […]

Grilled Salmon with Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Garden Wild Rice (Longest Title Ever)
Mission accomplished! We successfully managed to scrounge up whatever was left in the fridge, pantry and garden for a quick “gettin’-out-of-town-for-a-few-days” dinner. Well, when I say “we,” I actually mean Aaron. You see, all day long yesterday I felt completely dried up on dinner ideas. (After my delicious lunch that is.) On the verge of […]
Zucchini Pasta: I Might Die.
As I told ya last night, I’m trying to get every last thing eaten in this house before we depart for a few days. It just so happened that my newest Whole Living magazine appeared in my mailbox the other day. It just so happened that the front cover food photo left me weak and […]
Cucumber Water: I Had No Idea.

My Favorite Breakfast Ever
It’s safe to say that I eat the following at least 14 times a week for breakfast. Oh, it’s possible. I’ll change it up and add different spices, depending on my mood, but the staples are: whole grain English muffin, fried egg, (runny inside, yessss) wilted greens and crisp prosciutto. Oh, and a little bit […]
Seriously Hot Thai Seafood Salad
I often forget about putting seafood in a salad. It usually finds its way swirled into a creamy pasta, or swimming in a spicy soup, or even tucked into crisp tortillas with fresh tomato and creamy avocado. But a salad? A SALAD? HOW DARE THEE DOTH MAKE A SEAFOOD SALAD THEE. Just kidding, a salad […]
Sneak Peek
Whaccha got?
Shroom Burgers Dude. (made ya look)
In my quest to make 4 million, 738 thousand, 617 burgers this summer, I decided that today was as good as any to make it all about the mushroom. I love mushrooms. I am so in love with mushrooms. The weirder the spelling, the better. The stranger the texture, bring it on. The funkier the […]
