Hey guys, happy June! Today, we’re expecting sunny skies and highs close to 80 and I could not be more excited. These are the kinda days I wait for all year long. It seriously does not get much better. So despite the fact that I have plenty of things I could (and probably should) be doing around ...
4th of July Shenanigans
Hey guys! Yep, no worries...I'm still around and without baby. I heard from a few of you, wondering if there was any news, since I've been a little MIA the past couple of days, but Baby Tooth is still comfortably hanging out where he has been for the past 9+ months. I didn't wind up with too ...
Work Surprise, Date Night, Freezer Meals, & Pool Problems
How's that for a loaded post title? Mornin' friends! How was the weekend? Awesome, I hope? Well since I last chatted with you all Friday morning, I have a few things to catch you all up to speed on, starting with Friday afternoon. I'll tell ya...I have some amazing co-workers. I was ...
Two Stars of the Show
Dinner tonight was awwwwwwesome. We still had quite a bit of our loaf of Italian bread left from this weekend’s Farmers Market trip, so rather than let it go bad, I decided to cook up a batch of homemade croutons. So quick and simple, too! To make a batch of Garlic & Parmesan ...
Vote For Jay’s New Twitter Handle
All I can say is thank goodness my appetite came back for dinner last night, because there was some good stuff happenin’ between our kitchen and grill last night! Our good friends Joe & Kate came over right after work for an evening of pizza on the grill (we’re such creatures of habit) and ...
All Fired Up
I love it when Jay grills. Honestly, I think I’m going to tell him not to bother storing the grill for the winter and I’m just going to continue to make him brave the cold to grill amazing dinners for us. That’s fair of me to ask, right? Well luckily for me, it hasn’t yet gotten to that point ...
Grill Master + Mind Reader
I’m seriously pondering the idea of whether or not Jay is an actual mind reader. Or maybe we just have some weird, married couple’s ESP thing going on. Either way, here’s why. This afternoon, after posting the Pumpkin Black Bean Soup recipe, a few of you mentioned the idea of pumpkin beer. I ...
Tonight’s Dinner Gets a Wow
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 ...
Burger For Him, Salmon For Her
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 hubby likes to have his ...
