Guess who figured out a way to use up some more of her zucchini stash…? Oh yeah, baby. A couple of weeks ago, I received my latest issue of Cooking Light magazine in the mail and happened to come across this recipe for Summer Squash and Ricotta Galette. I followed the recipe to a T, [...]

Sooooo? How’s everyone’s first day of 2012 going so far? I’ll be honest…I was actually planning on my day being totally lazy, but it ended up turning out to be much more productive than I expected. I got some laundry done, the grocery shopping done, and we even got all of the Christmas decorations packed [...]

This afternoon after I got out of work, I headed to the grocery store to pick up some necessities for tonight’s dinner. When I asked Jay this morning if he was craving anything in particular for tonight, I got a response of “chicken.” Hmmph. But hey, I guess it’s better than the usual, “Oh, I [...]

I really, really like getting packages in the mail. Especially when they come from one of my favorite companies! This afternoon, I actually ended up receiving quite the shipment of packages, to which Jay pronounced, “What?!? That is just not fair!” Aww, sorry hubs. It comes with the territory. But back to that first goodie [...]

Somebody out there please help me feel a little less sheepish… Please tell me I’m not the only one who has an extremely difficult time salting her own ear of corn. Honestly. Sweet Tooth Courtney Fun Fact: I’m 99% positive that I continued to make my mom or dad salt my corn on the cob [...]

I swear, every time I get a new issue of my Cooking Light magazine subscription in the mail, I wind up with a whole renewed desire to cook dinner again. Thank goodness. Cody really likes when I get my latest issue, too. Actually, that’s a lie. I just felt the need to slap a picture [...]

Oh.my.gosh. That’s all I can say about tonight’s dinner. Wow. Once again, my latest issue of Cooking Light delivered with a killer recipe for Spice Rubbed Flank Steak with Fresh Salsa. Both Jay and I have had our eye on this recipe, which worked out perfectly, since I’ve actually had a flank steak in our [...]

I often get asked whether or not Jay and I eat the same meals. Tonight was not one of those nights. I’d say that probably 85% of the time, we will eat the same meals, or at least similar versions of the same meal. I can often vary my sources of protein at dinner, but [...]
