    Up front: this recipe has nothing to do with me!  It came completely and utterly from T, and I’m not actually sure if he pulled the idea off the intermanets, or came up with this tasty concoction on his own!  My role…

    August 5, 2016

    Quattro Goomba’s Winery was the second stop on our day out with T’s parents a few weekends ago.  The first being Mediterranean Cellars-tune in next friday for my review of it!  T and I had visited Quattro Goomba’s another time earlier, for…

    August 3, 2016

    I am definitely becoming the queen of convenience!  Okay, not really, because this recipe isn’t exactly as simple as some of my five-ingredient recipes like bbq baby back ribs, but I’ve definitely been reaching for the recipes with a convenience…

    So let me tell you about this past weekend!  I know we’re almost at this weekend, but I’m about to travel up to my parents for the weekend, and last weekend was a ton of fun!  T’s parents came to…

    Before I start off this post, I want to note that I am going to *TRY* to be better about posting more regularly.  This has stemmed from the idea that I have a backlog of favorite restaurants that I want…

    July 24, 2016

    This recipe came from one of those long-week, long-days, need to throw something together evening meals.  But it was surprisingly tasty and actually elevated, and not at all “from-a-jar”.  And it really only takes a little bit of cream!  Well, not…

    July 22, 2016

    It’s funny that sometimes I look at my own posts, and I realize that my favorites–either recipes, or reviews–don’t have posts yet. It makes sense in the grand scheme of things since I only started less than a year ago,…

  • softbatch m&m chocolate chip cookies;

    July 20, 2016

    Sometimes I’m skeptical of advertised “softbatch” cookies, because I’ve had hit or miss experiences with whether they actually turn out as advertised.  This recipe really was a good softbatch cookie recipe though!  They weren’t quite as puffy as I usually…

    I hope that a lot of things on my blog look tasty.  But if you’re feeling ambitious, THIS IS THE RECIPE FOR YOU.  Note that with all the different components, it’s not really what I would consider an “easy” recipe.…

    July 10, 2016

    Yesterday was an amazing summer day!  Beautiful outside, and definitely hot, but not so horrible in the shade.  Definitely would have needed some sunscreen if we didn’t camp out at some nice picnic benches at great shoals winery!  I’ve wanted to…

    July 9, 2016

      I feel like I’ve been on a spicy kick recently. Between my jalapeño popper bread and trying some spicy BBQ sauces at Smoqued in Chicago (see my culinary adventure), I’ve been eating a bit more spicy food than I…

  • Chicago: Deep Dish Pizza, Yum

    July 6, 2016

    I just got back from Chicago and wanted to share all the culinary highlights!  It was a great trip, although my face was having none of the back of forth of humid weather and super dry AC. But other than…
