This is a post from a long time ago from my Facebook food album. Aaron’s cooking tonight, so I’ll have that story for you and more, tomorrow. Whoa, that was very news reporter-y of me. I’m not sure if it’s from the harvested scotch bonnet pepper that we threw into this dish last second, or […]
We’re in the depths of Fall and nothing could be more crisp or colorful. I love my drives around town, especially when the sun rays split through tree branches and radiance bounces around from leaf to leaf, blinding me. Ok, I don’t love the blinding, but I love the color! Each year when the comfort […]
When I was a little kid I attempted to eat the ever so popular Fruit Roll Up as a snack. I also made my sister Barbara eat dirt from a small garden hose as a snack, but that’s beside the point. I also threw locust shells on her once while she was bathing, but again, […]
We had Monday. We had clients. We had sushi for lunch. We had mid afternoon coffees. We had the realization that my boots need the heels capped. We had a husband land safely from a work trip. We had new jeans on. We had a rainstorm. We had a new candle at work that might […]

Last night a girlfriend came over and we ate cheese. A lot of cheese. There was much of the dipping into the cheese. Don’t worry, we ate our vegetables. We coated them in cheese. We had good, nutritious bread too. Soaked in cheese. We were this close to dipping any and all household objects into […]
As I type this I am wiping up the last of the parmesan shavings with my finger and sharing onion bits with little miss Charlie. She kind of likes frittata. What it took: * 2 eggs * 1/2 a medium yellow onion, sliced thinly * 1/4th cup chopped fresh parsley * sprinkle of Hungarian sweet […]
This is my version of Saturday morning zen.
Going out to dinner with a girlfriend tonight. But I have to tell you, I found out yesterday that I’m going to be an aunt to a beautiful little girl. I can’t wait to love her like crazy and give her obnoxious amounts of pink things. She needs to know now that her mom is […]
Around my house I have a little catch phrase that I like to throw out to Aaron when a) I’d like him to do something or b) um, I’d like him to do something. It’s the “you won’t regret it” route. It goes something like this. “Hey sweetie, you should totally mow the lawns. They’ll […]
