My favorite thing ever is when I am sitting at work thinking about what I want to eat for dinner (it’s sad, really, how often I think about my meals ahead of time) and I realize that I have exactly the right ingredients to make something that I imagined up. That happened today, and it …

Mother’s? Mothers’? Anyway, I hope you had a happy one. There are three major mothers in my life: 1). Mine. Basically everything I hope to grow up to be, in the end. If you know my mom, it’s pretty obvious why. Pretty obvious even if you don’t know her. 2) My sister, Erin. She is …

I love when asparagus is in season. Because that means spring and sunshine (occasionally) and sweatshirts and my last chance to make hearty winter dishes before full-on summer hits and all I can think about eating are cold salads and frozen fruits and grilled meats. So as one (of many, I’m sure) last hurrahs, here’s …

You guys know by now how I feel about soup. And if you don’t–well, I freakin’ love it. I’d have soup for every meal if I wasn’t concerned that my teeth would fall out if I never used ‘em. Plus I like to crunch things every once in a while. And I guess I would …

I rarely make granola at home, because: I can’t stop eating the ingredients when I am putting it together; I can’t stop eating the soft and chewy clusters during baking; I can’t stop eating the crunchy, slowly cooling clusters once they are done baking; and Whatever I don’t eat only lasts a day or two …

Could it possibly be true…could I be blogging for the second day in a row?! The heavens rejoice and I am feeling so excited to have my kitchen fully unpacked, only a few small projects to do, and to have my camera back out and in action! It’s amazing how quickly I got used to …

Oh, hey guys. Remember me? I’m so excited to announce that we are officially moved into our new apartment–it’s definitely not my dream home, but it has a dishwasher, washer and dryer, nicer kitchen appliances, a big closet to house my shopping addiction clothes, and a little more room to wander around in. Meaning that …

First off, sorry that I’ve been MIA from the blog world (again). I really miss it, but between my new clinical (and all the studying that comes with it) along with the impending move (this Saturday!), I’ve been really super busy. I definitely miss blogging more regularly and I can’t wait to get back into …

This popcorn reminds me of some savory bread you have to start off a meal in a cozy Italian restaurant. Except it’s popcorn, so it takes about fifteen minutes to make from start to finish. That, and it’s a grain, so there’s quite a bit less guilt when it comes to eating a bowl of …
