There’s a good reason why I didn’t post last night. I was busy thinking that I was dying. It started out innocently enough: Brian and I had spent the day at school and the afternoon running errands, so when we walked in the door around 6 pm we opted for a simple meal. We still [...]
It may have taken me two hours to cook dinner the other night. I’m okay with the idea of taking two hours to prepare dinner (I’m sure that some of my anxiety over where my time goes is connected to the fact that I make a new meal for Brian and I almost every night), [...]
A couple weeks ago, I posted about my favorite recipe websites (still in love with Super Cook, by the way). Of course, the alternative to the internet is the cookbook. I don’t have a lot of cookbooks; I figure all the food blogs I read make up for it. I do like cookbooks though and [...]

Despite the fact that it snowed a little here on Monday, it’s now May so I’m going to go with the assumption that it’s officially Spring. Spring means fresh produce and I’m so excited to put some of the recipes below into action: “Cheap, Healthy Asparagus: 81 Recipes for the Springiest of Spring Vegetables” from [...]
I figure a follow-up post is only fair, since my rant last week detailing my sister’s eating habits and how different they are from mine. She ended up changing her schedule and only coming for one night, which really relieved my stress in the meal planning department. Sometimes I stress about things that really aren’t [...]
My Christmas shopping was done almost a month ago (!), but in the event that you haven’t finished yours yet, I’ve put together a list of the 10 gadgets and tools in my kitchen that I love the most. If none of my favs strike your fancy, check out the links to gift guides at [...]
