New obsession if you don’t mind me saying. Everyone loves a baked brie. Name someone who doesn’t lose their sh*t over a baked brie. (We’re leaving Aaron out of this situation.) Ya can’t! We’re into baked bries. Some are wrapped in puff pastry, others are baked as is and get draped with various sweet or […]
Friday Flotsam
Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrace day tomorrow!!! (!!!!!) . (!) I’m feeling ready. I’m feeing great. I have a teeny weeny two miles left to run today and it’s an official wrap on half marathon training. I cannot believe it. Remember when I started this back in June?! Bananas. The hardest part for me during this training was reaching […]
Cheesy Baked Chicken and Tomatoes
Obscenely simple dinner alert! Get excited. When I say we barely do anything, I mean . . . we barely do anything. There’s some dicing. That’s about it. The rest is a nestle/sprinkle/bake situation that will have you teary by the end of this post. And listen, I made the crusty bread because I’m working […]
Roasted Cabbage with Bacon and Ranch
New favorite side dish! Don’t even try to argue. Have you ever roasted your cabbage? This was my first time (I know!) and I was floored. It’s a whole thing. A whole experience. A whole mood. And we’re doing it today so that you can be blown away too and forever altered. Let us peepeth. […]

Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! I need to get back into pies! Lit-rally hadn’t planned on typing those words until they just came out of my fangies. Tell me something, and this is going to sound so silly, but (and I could google this but you’re cuter) are chess pies (like the word CHESS) the word I’m looking for […]
Creamy Penne Pasta with Spinach and Sundried Tomatoes
Hiyaaaaaa, a new weeknight fave. (not fav) Remember I mentioned that I would be bringing in more few-ingredient dinners for your busy fall? I feel like I said that to you. Didn’t I? Crud, maybe I didn’t. Maybe I said it in my head but forgot to vocalize via fingertips in here. WAIT, I DID. […]
Monthly Mixtape: Crooning Jukebox and Hot Roller Locks
It’s my 100th public mixtape! Also yes I keep posting photos of my garden because little else matters. You can dig. I realized recently that I’ve never made a 1950s mixtape. Never! Not once! I mean, I’ll throw a few gems in other mixes, but nothing straight-up dedicated to that decade slash era. The horror! […]
Friday Flotsam
Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrit! it! ay! yay! it! what! Do you change your skin care routine in the fall and winter? I just saw a New York Times article in my newsletter this morning about that very thing. I clicked on it but I haven’t read it yet. I just saw the words “pulled from the lipid barrier” […]
Roasted Potatoes with Chimichurri
AKA: Life’s secret loophole. For anything. But mainly side dishes. If there’s a roasted potato on any sort of table, I’m in. I surrender. I’m all yours. But then you add chimichurri to the equation? Done for. Unspeakable bliss. Obnoxiously hyperbolic and overly dramatic but honestly what else are we here for? Let us peepeth. […]

Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreyeeeeeee! Natalie gave me her Christmas list three nights ago. HER CHRISTMAS WISH LIST. I was in bed reading. It was like, 9:15pm and I was this close to turning out my bedside lamp, and in walks Miss Prissy List all, “Okay here it is. And it’s numbered so it’s easier to read. And I […]
