Since Coralie has been taking strolls down memory lane, it inspired me to go through my digital collection. I found some great ones… but one, in particular, made me laugh out loud. So, here is my throw-back and my truth… Continue Reading
I have made references to my stepmom’s signature breakfast… well, one of her signature breakfasts. She’s really a great cook- and this is a simple dish, but Farmer’s Breakfast is truly delish and very easy to make! It is made… Continue Reading
The development and widespread acceptance of cell phones TOTALLY blows my mind! They are no longer just a device for making phone calls on the go, they are on-ramps for the information super highway AND they are a camera that… Continue Reading
Baby Bub is my first and in all likelihood, will be my only child. I did not have any prior experience with babies before him. There were no previous pregnancies or babies that I could draw from. I have friends… Continue Reading
I love pepper jelly. Pour it over an 8-ounce block of cream cheese, throw some wheat thins around it and call it a day! It is easy, delicious, and a general crowd-pleaser. And I have really been inundated with peppers… Continue Reading
I explained two weeks ago when I did my first Throw Back Thursday that I was gonna need to throw back several times to cover the different chapters of my life. So, here I am with the second installment. This… Continue Reading
One of my favorite things to do while I wait is to save money. I went through a whole phase where in which I tried to catch on to the whole couponing craze— and in theory, couponing is awesome but,… Continue Reading
In summer’s past, Bub and I tended to revert our time spent in the kitchen back to our college days and pretty much not do much cooking. We were both working a ton of hours and our off days were… Continue Reading
I have worked in restaurants for over 10 years and it continues to baffle me that sometimes the general public just doesn’t get it. Without a doubt, restaurants and really, the hospitality industry as a whole are in business to… Continue Reading
With the delivery of the CSA box every week we have really be inundated with summer veggies. I am determined to not let them waste, but also, eating the same ole same ole is not option. So, I turned to… Continue Reading
I think I may have mentioned before that I am not the most technologically advanced. I’m not saying that I don’t have some things figured out but other things- I am totally lost. I have not jumped on the twitter… Continue Reading
It is tomato season! I love them! Homegrown tomatoes are soooo tasty- I wish they grew year round- once you’ve had one, you will just wince when you have to buy one at the grocery store. Lucky for me, I… Continue Reading
I usually wake in the morning with a mission to get food in my belly! Well, actually, I get up with a need to get Spark in my system which is quickly followed with a need to get food in… Continue Reading
I have tried before to cook homemade pita chips and failed- I did not cook them long enough I believe and they never got crisp. But, I thought I would give it one more go. This time, I did it… Continue Reading
Bub and I really do love our house. It is certainly a work in progress and as I have mentioned before, as we mark one project off our list we add about 3 more. It is a constant work in… Continue Reading
You remember as a kid how much fun spend-the-night company was? And especially how much fun spend the night parties were? Weeeelllll, I am here to tell you they are just as much fun, if not more fun as adults!… Continue Reading
As I mentioned previously, we got zucchini in the veggie box from the CSA. Zucchini, to me, is one of those veggies that you can kinda get to fly under the radar and then what do you know, you’ve just… Continue Reading
Maybe it was evident with my Cinco de Mayo Fiesta post that I really love Mexican inspired food. This has not always been the case, but it is certainly the case now! If Bub would allow it, I’d probably have… Continue Reading
Okay, so there is a substantial hippie part of me that keeps my consumerist side of me in check… most of the time. I absolutely think that perhaps we, as a human race, are taking for granted our planet and… Continue Reading
Bub and I have really tried to do our best at embracing clean eating. I honestly think that we humans were not made to eat the processed junk that sometimes finds its way into our pantries. Bub and I and… Continue Reading
