Over the weekend I ended up at an impromptu girls night in. We ended up gathered around a table with simple appetizers. Don’t all gatherings, at least the good ones start around a table? It was one of those perfect nights. Warm, but not too warm right at the golden…
It is officially the time of year when I begin to hate my oven. And my kitchen. And food in general. It is just too hot to bother. Summer is when the cooling staples come out to play: vegetable salads and watermelon, simple sandwiches and the ever classic pasta salad.…
Which salad reminds you the most of warm summer days and family get togethers and gathering around a table to load your plate? Potato Salad? Macaroni? Chicken? Can you taste summer and picture a lazy Sunday afternoon in front of you just thinking about it? I can. If ever there…
I had a day to myself recently and decided to spend it doing nothing but cooking – not for the blog, not because I needed to figure out dinner, but for no other reason than I wanted to spend a morning luxuriating in the kitchen. Almost my entire life revolves…

We’ve taken a little hiatus due to a bout with a Martian Death Flu and GHI (General Holiday Insanity). We are still taking baby steps in the blogging world and have learned so much in 2014 about ourselves and this new path we’ve joined. Thanks for taking the journey with…
We’ve had a busy couple of weeks sharing all our Thanksgiving Recipes with you. We thought we’d pull everything together and put it all in one place so that you can either drool (or plan your holiday meal). Appetizers – because let’s face it, that Turkey always takes longer than you…
