Summer Sauce

04-Jun-10

Well, it’s now the “official” start of summer. I guess that might be unofficial, seeing as how summer doesn’t technically begin until June 21, but whatever. It’s been over 90 degrees for most of May and into the beginning of June. So, it’s here! This is a short post for a few reasons. I suck, [...]

G-Free IS yummy. Wanna try?

30-Apr-10

Have any of you ever eaten, or “gone,” gluten-free? Let me tell you, I was never one of those people. I know some people have to eat gluten-free for medical reasons, be it an allergy, or celiac disease, or something else. I LOVE BREAD. I love pasta, I love bagels. Gluten-free was definitely NOT for [...]

You say you want a revolution?

16-Apr-10

I have been dragging ass lately. Well, that’s a complete understatement. Since we lost Brett’s mom, I think we’ve all felt a little lost. Cheated, sad, angry… and much more. It’s hard day by day since there is a 2 year old here who loved and adored her. We do the best we can, and [...]

Barbecue..just like mama used to make..

02-Apr-10

Well, the last two weeks have been pretty difficult for all of us. But, it’s back to the grind. Brett’s back to work, and I’m back to, well, mom. It’s been a whirlwind and hopefully things will get easier. I have found my way back to the kitchen…. armed with a handful of my MIL’s [...]

See that girl…watch that scene…she is a ziti queen!

24-Jan-10

Well, I do apologize. Things over this way have been slightly left of crazy the past week or so. Madeline’s birthday was wonderful! She enjoyed everything! We had a small family get together on Saturday the 16th for her. Unfortunately, I was battling a slight cold earlier in the week, and Brett somehow caught it [...]

Two years ago a princess was born

14-Jan-10

Well, my first order of business…. Happy Birthday Madeline! Yup, my precious little girl is 2 today! I can’t believe it. I can’t believe I’m the mommy of a 2 year old – more so, I can’t believe I’m so lucky that she’s mine. She’s still (I think) too young to understand her birthday, but [...]

Mac and cheese…a la… me?

08-Jan-10

Mac and cheese… one of my favorite foods.  I grew up on Velveeta, from my mom, and yes, ate my way through my fair share of Easy Mac when I was just a broke student at the University of Scranton, but I’m way past that. I’ve tried a few different recipes for homemade macaroni and [...]

Shepherd's Pie that sticks to you

06-Jan-10

As much as I love the warmer weather, I have to say there really is no bigger food comfort than a warm dish that makes you feel cozy on a freezing day. You know, those foods that feel like they stick to your insides and make you feel wonderful and satisfied and afterwards, all you [...]
