I’m not sure what made me think of attempting stuffed peppers …. but I’m pretty sure the giant mound of them at the market had something to do with it. When we were growing up I remember how much I really loved the Stouffer’s Stuffed Peppers that we would dominate as a family. I’m pretty…
Five zucchinis for a dollar. I’m serious. I swear if I tried to cook as much as I do while shopping at Whole Foods… I’d be broke. My wallet would like to thank the weekend market at Haymarket. I’m not sure what prompted the zucchini bread but it is definitely a winner in my book. Plus, even…
I’ve been waking up these days much earlier than necessary. My commute to work is quite literally less than 5 minutes and yet, I wake up sans alarm at 6:30. That’s fine and dandy until it’s the weekend and I’d much prefer to sleep until a bit later. Alas, sometimes it’s okay because it means…
For a few hours today, I forgot how happy I was being just me. But I was quickly reminded of it as I listened to someone else wax on and on about their personal life. And how much they are trying to orchestrate their future. It just seemed so complex and not fun. Then I…
I think there are a few meals out there that people think are like way amazing and challenging… and they just are not. People like myself hate to break up this charade because, hey, I like to look cook when I make a simple meal that impresses. On this list? Red Velvet Cake, Roasted tomatoes….…
Welp, my hard drive died yesterday. Let’s all take a minute to mourn it. Thankfully, it’s a best possible situation (so far) in that… I have Apple Care and I had recently done a back-up. So hopefully all is not lost… and I can get started on my taxes soon. BUT! Today is the first day…
If you thought that when I gave up bacon for lent, I’d lead a clean healthy life …. you were majorly off base. I’ve just merely substituted bacon for chocolate and cheez-its. But not together. That just seems wrong. The candy jar in my apartment has been stripped clean of all my favorites. I started…
Last night I got home from the airport at 10pm. the previous three nights, I went to dinner at 10 pm. Yep, ladies and gentleman I was a bit of a baller. That is if your definition of a baller is staying up until 1 am, taking cat naps by the pool, and at one point noshing on…
Sometimes, life is about patiently stirring some rice in a skillet and making risotto. Sometimes, life is about realizing that your “collection” of cotton sundresses that are totes perfect for New England are “totes not perfect” for your weekend in Miami. Blurg. That is the reality that I’m coming to at 10:30 on a Monday night. I’ve…
Hey, guess what isn’t photogenic? Cauliflower. Like for reals. Hey, guess what is totally delicious? Cauliflower. Like for reals. I’m not sure what brought this delicious wonder to my computer screen, but it looked so good and it turned out that I already had the cauliflower in my fridge. Win! I’m not sure I’ve ever…
