Are you a stay-at-home-human? Are you sick of pb&js for lunch? Are you looking to save money but still eat something delicious everyday? Are you starting to hear Sally Struthers’s voice echo in your head? As I was flipping through one of my favorite magazines, Whole Living, I came across a great quiche recipe and […]
Back when I was a kid we’d watch Blossom and the Fresh Prince of Bel Air on Monday nights. Fast forward a billion years and I’m watching PBS cooking shows and the local news. Where did the time go? Why am I almost 35? Wait, is that a JOWL I SEE? Someone will pay. *send […]
It was 72 degrees today. The windows are open. The sicky linens are in the wash. The sofa is febrezed. “I think I’m gonna like it here.” Name that movie. (Singing will help.) (Oh gosh, I meant in your head.) Wild Rice with Tofu and Spinach: What it took for 2: * 2 cups cooked […]
So I’ve been mentally packing for my trip this week. One of the items I was giddily going to include was my new pair of cream Sperry Topsiders. Then the darkness set in: a cruel trick from Mother Nature, a plot against me in my desire to wear warm weather footwear. I tell you what, […]
I’m pretty brain-dead right now. But I do have a few thoughts to throw out into the interwebs. 1) I got my teeth cleaned today and I feel like Giada De Laurentiis. 2) We may have ice on the way. AKA – I am never leaving my bedroom. 3) I have a cardboard cut. Did […]
We have less than three weeks until Christmas. Did you know that? Are you done shopping? Is everything wrapped? Is your tree up? Are all your travel plans set in stone? Do you have to ship anything this year? Have you planned the Christmas menu? Why was Tumblr down so long? Am I stressing […]
This morning’s breakfast is sort of hodgepodge. Using a mix of Japanese mushrooms, cumin-spiced eggs and fresh parmesan, I’m going global! Or, uh, purging the last of the fridge goods before heading to the store. Let’s go with global. Breakfast Taco: What it took for 2: * 2 whole wheat flour tortillas * 3 eggs, […]
Night 2 of practicing “Man! I Feel Like a Woman!” for Ashlee’s karaoke birthday party Friday night. This is either going to be really awesome for me and extremely painful for the audience, or really awesome for the audience and extremely painful for me. My version is going to end up being, “Man! I Feel […]
The election results are in and it’s no surprise that Chicken Marsala is the clear winner for tonight’s dinner. The prosciutto brought in many mental votes while preparing for this meal. Capers, butter and velvety spinach won by a landslide in the accents department. If the staunch policy of this succulent dish is to promise […]
I have the house to myself today. Do you know what this means? I get to do yoga, deep clean, take a long walk, sit on the sofa and read my book in silence and, well, blog! (Cue angels singing.) So to get my day started, I made one of my favorite breakfast creations. It […]
