I have a huge weakness for carbs. Specifically bread … and not of the whole wheat variety. Whole wheat can take a hike and never come back … just kidding. Kind of. I’ve attempted to make bread a few times before, some that I’ve documented on the blog… some pre-blog. It feels like bread is…
Do your parents age? Mine don’t. I nearly died of shock when Facebook told me that my dad wasn’t 40. I mean, it’s obvious … he’s not 40. I’m 29. Based on the pictures I scanned last November, I know for a fact that he wasn’t 9 when he married my mom and 11 when he…
for consistency sake…. here is my final posting from the “old blog”. If I was a super popular blogger, this would probably be cause for a party sponsored by some trendy cupcake company and prosecco. But, since it’s just me I’m going to eat another Dove Promise and press “publish” Consider this a birth announcement. I’m pleased…
Most of my friends are married or live with significant others … or if you are my sister are in a significant relationship with a cat. To each his own right? Anyway. One of my favorite meals to single aka eat alone is meatballs. Specifically frozen ones from my freezer. I tend to come home…
I had these grand plans of posting some glorious pictures today of my vacation in Maine. But then life happened. I got home from work yesterday and had all these plans for mac and cheese. I was going to put on some sweatpants, get in the corner of my couch, and edit pictures. All whilst…

This is a good news, bad news recipe. Good news? Avocado fries are tasty. Bad news? Avocado fries are easy. I’m getting ready to go to head to Maine for the Labor Day holiday weekend… and as a result, I’m trying to eat anything in my house that will expire. I was a little overzealous at…
…. and all your cares will just drift away. I took the train home from the city today to the burbs. I knew from the minute I pulled into the neighborhood that the beach would be amazing. I was itching to get closer and closer to it. I instagram’d a few shots while I was…
I’ll probably never forget the first time I saw someone make pesto. I remember being shocked. It was very much a “THAT’S IT?” moment. But seriously, pesto is really that easy. And upon further investigation, you can pretty much make it any which was you want. I saw this great blog post that illustrated all…
Oh me, oh my. I came back to the North End today from a few days in the burbs. Nothing seemed to be more appealing than opening all of my windows and looking at some pictures from this weekend. Just as I was about to reach for a coconut water, I spied half of a…
