Last week I saw a post from my bestie, aka Flyer Foodie on her Facebook page of a most tantalizing black-eyed pea and sausage soup. I immediately lost my balance, went blind and started licking my computer screen when Aaron walked in, jaw dropped and holding a piece of paper with the Charter phone number […]
If there is one thing in life that is absolutely certain, it is that fish + wine + saffron + garlic + tomatoes = a love like none other. Remember the feeling you got when you stared for hours on end at Joey McIntyre on your New Kids On The Block poster? This is going […]
