July tunes for your ear holes! And listen, I am not condoning any of this behavior. It is simply a fun theme that I leaned into for the heck of it. We can all just deal. What’s it about? Vices! Sort of. And while there are many many vices out there, depending on your lifestyle, […]
One of my favorite salsas! Time to completely obsess. There are five hundred gabillion recipes out there for corn salsa. We know this. But I’ll show you what my GO-TO is because I feel like you might want to make your entire life about it. But I’m not dramatic or anything. This corn is from […]
Oooooo let’s get 1975-style bougie! You know you’re in. These are amazing. I did not make them up. However, I did promise to cook out of this estate-sale-found cook book literally called The Cook Book from 1979. It’s written by the National Council of Jewish Women from the Greater Kansas City Section and what a […]
Oooooookay now. Let me say, these are not overly spicy at ALL. Matter of fact, I probably could have gone for more heat, but we’ll play it safe today unless you like living on the edge. See, this is how a 48-year old woman rebels. We grate frozen jalapeno on our potatoes. Isn’t life thrilling? […]
Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrieeeedieeeeee. Let’s play a game! This is called: Tell Me What Movie Moment Traumatized You as a Kid. I’ll go first because we all know the obvious, if you’re a Gen X kid. The moment that changed everything. And that was Artax in the quick sand in NeverEnding Story. Hands down, saddest thing ever. “ARTAAAAAAX”. […]
At last, a June mixtape! (I forgot.) I won’t keep you. I have big plans today for making cheddar bread, broiled tomatoes (both for the blog!), some garden tidying and a bit of reading. But you reaaaaally need this extra breezy, ultra summery mixtape. It’s perfect for June! Roll down your windows and let it […]
Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!! Okay listen. This one’s for the booooooys. (sung like Martina McBride) But actually, it’s not only for the boys. Because you see, I do all our yard work. All the mowing, the edging, the weeding, the pruning, the primping. That’s me. This girl. Your girl. (<–sorry) But the one thing I do need Aaron’s […]
Frrrrrrrrrrrrrreedildy dooooo. You know what will always be? No matter how old I get, the parents on sitcoms from my childhood will always be older than me. Always. This shan’t be argued. Cliff and Clair Huxtable? Much older than me. Uncle Jesse and Joey? A lot older. Aunt Becky? Someday I’ll be her age and […]
Ooooo it’s a comfort, I tell ya! This is 100% inspired by my good friend Jessica’s new cookbook. I put my thing down, flipped it and reversed it (just based on what I already had), and made my own version. But she’s the total springboard. And her book is incredible. Bravo, Jess! You know I […]
Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrit’s SUMMER. How. You guys, I need help. (shocker!) Tell me how I can lighten my hair, mainly my bangs, but for like five pennies. (also did you see that next year the US is going to stop making pennies?! Natalie and I saw that news on IG last night before bed and both our […]
