Last week, when it was supposed to be snowing but actually it was just dumping buckets of rain on my part of the world, I came up with this. This winter, while the weather has been so wholly unsatisfying, things like this butternut squash macaroni and cheese have totally kept me going. This is …
Monday. Again. Why is January almost over already? Why haven’t I posted any Valentine’s Day recipes yet? Why does time seem to be moving in hyper-speed? Why can’t I find a nail polish color that suits January? So many questions. 1. I found an amazing new coffee shop that is actually in my zip code …
Bourbon Spiked Hot Chocolate is rich and creamy, made from scratch, and spiked with bourbon to make all your winter days warmer. Some of you might want to shake your fist at me after I tell you this. I really really really love snow. L.O.V.E. But because I live in the south western part of …
So here’s the ironic thing about these cookies. 3 days ago I got wise and finally downloaded a calorie counting/ fitness tracking app on my phone. Know what’s weird? I love it. I’ve always been a label-reader and have made a mental note of the calories I’m taking in… unless it’s easier on my conscience …
Breakfast will forever be my favorite meal. And bagels will forever be one of my favorite foods. We have not one single bagel bakery in Nowheresville, North Carolina.

What had happened was… I had every intention of sharing something new and delicious with you today. I’ve made it several times. Worked out the kinks. Sampled the results. Recipe is in great working order. But in order for you to want to EAT the food and MAKE the food, which is basically the whole …
In case you weren’t paying attention, I decided to try something new last week. It includes my Monday posts being full of fun things I want to share with you because Mondays are, by nature, sorta crummy. I can’t remember the original source of this photo, but it’s awesome.
This isn’t really a recipe… more of a method. The word “recipe” would indicate that there should be more than one ingredient involved. There’s not. Did I ever tell you how much we like vinegar in this house? It’s kind of ridiculous. Marinades and dressings and salads and dips… for Chad especially the more vinegar …
Crispy Baked Green Bean Fries are simple, roasted, the perfect amount of salty, and excellently crisp. If you need a good alternative to fries made with potatoes, this easy recipe is it! This is a 4-ingredient, 15-minute, healthy recipe. Short and sweet (except sorta salty). It’s an oldie but a goody, and one I fall …
I have spent my evening doing 4 things. That sounds like I was really busy but actually I feel like I’ve been pretty unproductive. What’s kept me occupied:
