    The weather’s getting warmer, and we’re getting closer to the time when we break out the mixed cocktails, the wine tastings out in the summery vineyards…  It makes me a little sad that I don’t enjoy winter as much as…

    February 19, 2016

    This is a hearty and tasty vegetarian pasta option!  We actually were introduced to this recipe by a friend of T’s who made it when we visited them to chat about their trip to Iceland!  We’re going next month, so…

    February 17, 2016

    Here’s a new one for the books!  Who would have thought–cold cider floats!  I sure wouldn’t have. You can thank Cornell’s Grad students for this doozy. I was up in Ithaca visiting a friend this past weekend for “galentines” day,…

    February 15, 2016

    In addition to banana bread, here’s another way-past-ripe bananas recipe to add to your repertoire!  Though you do need a doughnut pan for these.  I prefer baked doughnuts since they’re “healthier”, but more so because they don’t involve heating up…

    February 9, 2016

    This is a nice, clean, vegetarian recipe!  It’s super easy to make, and would also make a great side, although we ate it as the main dish tonight.  It is definitely a little on the light side for a main meal, but…

    February 4, 2016

    Tonight ended up being a somewhat impromptu date night!  I wanted to round out my gamecube controller selection–I’ve only ever had two controllers.  I always had game-geek friends that had extra controllers, so I never needed the full four.  So since…

    February 2, 2016

    Pulled pork is one of those slow cooker recipes to keep in your back pocket.  I love me a good slow cooker recipe that has people (mostly T) raving about how awesome it is when I almost feel guilty for…

    January 31, 2016

    So this is my first review post, and you might be wondering why I’m taking my food blog down this route.  The short answer is that I love some of the restaurants in the VA/DC area, and I simply wanted…

  • grilled cinnamon pineapple;

    January 31, 2016

    This grilled cinnamon pineapple is the perfect summer grilin’ recipe! Funny enough, it’s not summer as I write this, and there’s still a fair bit of snow of the ground. But with warm, toasty flavors, and just a slight bit…

    January 25, 2016

    If your first thought is that these look a lot like my previous cake batter chocolate chip cookies, you would be right!  The differences are subtle, but they are different.  For one, the cake batter chocolate chip cookies are quite a…

    I have a little story for you all.  A young girl graduated college and moved in with one of her friends.  Moved to a new state, and in the evenings when they didn’t feel like cooking some nights….they would eat baked…
