Aaron wanted to cook tonight. Let me repeat that, AARON WANTED TO COOK. I gasped, teared up, and started doing the electric slide in my living room when he delivered the news. He’s a TERRIFIC cook. He really is. He just never gets the chance to perform in the kitchen since, A) he’s either too […]
Okay, I have a question to ask you. And I need you to be completely honest with me, no matter how painful this might be. I have to admit that I’m more than a little bit worried about the answer. But you must know I can take it. I really am a strong, stable person […]
Last week a friend of mine sent me a recipe, and it just so happened to pop up a couple of days later in my newest Cooking Light magazine. As the stars aligned and Julie Andrews sang in my heart, I knew it was meant to be. I had to make ancho chicken tacos. STAT. […]
The weather could not be more perfect. The lilac bushes could not be more fragrant. My dog could not be more semi-clean. My book could not be more completely read.

(Bonus points to anyone who knows who Curtis Stone is. Jenny, shut your mouth.) (I never have bonus points on […]
I got me a clean dog. I got me a clean house. I got me some clean laundry. I got me a fully stocked fridge. I got me some badical grammar. See what happens when you don’t work for 1 day? Everything goes OUT THE WINDOW. Moroccan Braised Chicken with Carrots and Golden Raisins: What […]
This is such a simple meal. Like, simple to the dimple. Like, simple to the dimple to the pimple. Okay pimple is NOT a word appropriate for a food blog. My apimplegies. POLOGIES. Anyway, if you like your dimples simpled, try this simple one. …dimple. Chicken Chunks and Orzo with a Pesto Drizzle: What it […]
What? What white stuff all over the roads and yards and sidewalks? What fluffy substance dancing in the air slowly making its way to the ground? What white-knuckled drive to work 8 hours from now? I have NO idea what you’re talking about. Seriously, is there a petition we can sign? Chicken Stir-Fry With Bean […]
