You guys!! These are sooooo good. A while back, I attended this grocery showcase. It was this huge trade show that was only open to members of the grocery trade, and it was a preview of the newest products on the market that were going 

December Blogging Challenge

December Blogging Challenge

Welcome to December! This is the crazy month of parties, gifts, turkey, and family. Hopefully, somewhere in there, you’ll get some downtime, too. I, along with a few other of my intrepid fellow bloggers, are doing a blogging challenge this month. The goal (for me) is

Sansa Stark’s Lemon Cakes #GoT

Is anyone else out there completely addicted to Game of Thrones? For me, it started by reading the books–it took me an entire year to get through them all, and like many of you, I’m sure, I’m terrified that G.R.R.M will die before he finishes

Asian-Inspired Soba Noodle Salad

It’s hot. Who wants to cook? Not me. I’m craving fresh, cool, crunchy vegetables, instead. Minced green herbs that pack a punch. And a dressing that has a fiery afterglow. This Asian-Inspired Soba Noodle Salad is one of my go-to salads in the summer. I

Garlic Scape Jam Plus a Giveaway!

Scapes! Scapes! Scapes! I’m obsessed. Every year I look forward to early June, when the Scapes are in season at the Farmer’s Market. I buy handfuls and then come home and turn them into pesto. The season is short, so I usually go back every

3 Food Movies Reveal the Secret Sauce of Life

I don’t get to the theatre often. It’s a reality of my life, despite the fact I love theatre and film, and remain deeply connected to the local communities. My schedule just doesn’t support it. But last night, I did get out to see Chef,
