Do you guys know that I originally typed out this post as 2/29? It took me (more than) a second to realize, duh, we’ve arrived at March already…I can hardly believe it. Here’s to hoping for a great month ahead, for all of us! But now, let’s get to the meat and potatoes, if you will, of today’s ...
Crossed My Fingers and Hoped For The Best
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, and ...
Give It A Try
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 ...
I Am In Big Trouble
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 ...
Comes With The Territory
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 no worries, because now that you're reading, that means that you're making out ...

As if I wasn’t already excited enough before about my new changes, you have all managed to make me feel even more motivated and enthusiastic about my new adventure. I ...
I Have No Shame
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 for me up ...
Homemade Taco Seasoning
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 of ...
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 ...
