I’m baaaaack. And I no longer look like Hurricane Insano struck me 4 hundred billion times. I got SO much sleep last night I’m still kind of freaking out about it. I tried to sleep on the plane yesterday morning, but this old man with an eagle slash wolf bandana covering part of his gray […]

Spicy Barbacoa Soft Tacos
Chipotle has ruined my life. It has ruined it so good because it is pretty much all I live for. I said PRETTY MUCH. The other day I’d spent an excruciating afternoon trying on new clothes so that I don’t look like an orphan at BlogHer Food in a couple of weeks. I gave the […]
Beef Bolognese with Bucatini Pasta
I’m baaaaaaack! And full-fledged, so you better watch yo’self. You might not recognize me right off the bat, not seeing pictures of rusty nails, dry wall and grout paste or whatever. And that’s okay! Even if it takes you some time to remember me and the actual food I post on this blog, I won’t […]
Steak With Pesto Gnocchi
So, as bistro week continues (the only real thing I learned about the meaning of “bistro” is that I need to grow a mustache for true authenticity. DONE. And gross.) we’re having steak and potatoes! By the way, bistro week did in fact start on Monday with Aaron’s pasta, and then on Tuesday with soup, […]
Beef and Lentil Curry
OMG. Do you see that yellow glow coming from this pot o’ curry? Okay, ignore the yellow light reflection in the actual pot (photo shoot fail!) but look INSIDE at that rich, vibrant curry sauce that BEGS for your tongue to do the Electric Slide through it. That glow is turmeric. AKA: God’s gift to […]
Top 10 Recipes of the Year!
Okay so technically it’s, “Since June!” but we can pretend.* I’ve learned that you guys love food that involves spoons. Soupy food with a million spoons. And also forks. Foods that call for forks that wrap around silky noodles and sauces. And also foods that involve neither spoons nor forks, like pizza or sub sandwiches. […]
Chinese Beef and Broccoli
So, the other night I decided to FaceTime with my younger sister. I touched the screen, heard a few techie beepidy beeps, and a moment later her little face appeared in my hand. (By the way, did you know phones DO THIS? Oh you did? Oh.) “What are you doing?” I asked. Without a single […]
Classic Beef and Bean Chili
Can I ask you a question? What does it mean when someone “winterizes” something? Is it just checking to make sure the chimney sweep doesn’t have eagles or hobos stuck in it again? Or is it a quick glance at the windows and doors for any slits where evil ice ghosts might slip through at […]
Thai Beef With Cabbage
I must be craving iron or something, because when I flipped across this beefy recipe out of the newest Cooking Light, my stomach joined forces with my heart and sucker punched me in the face. Oh, and guess what! Yesterday, for the first time ever in my existing life existence, I purchased my very first […]
Simple Beef Tacos
The other afternoon, Aaron and I were resting on the couch, excruciatingly horrible movie on TV, my new favorite book in my lap and our minds taking a much needed breather. We had just hosted a little dinner party with our friends the night before, so cooking an elaborate dinner was simply out of the […]
