If you were to ask me who the best cook is that I know, I would say my mom without hesitation. I don’t remember a time when she didn’t come home and cook a homemade meal after a day at work. She is a superhero, an inspired and adventurous cook, and the best mom. I […]
Making Homemade Pasta
…is SO much easier than you could ever imagine. Dare I say it’s as easy as opening a box and pouring it into boiling water? Well…maybe it’s not as easy, but takes about the same amount of time since fresh pasta cooks for a couple minutes compared to boxed pasta at 10+ minutes. With my […]
Holiday Lately.
The holidays have come and gone and I’ve done a pretty awful job of documenting any of it here. We did a lot of fun things during this break, so I really want to make sure I get it all here before I forget. With that being said… Christmas: As per tradition, we had a […]

Friendsgiving 1 & 2, Thanksgiving 1 & 2
This weekend (and last!) was full of food, drinks, and friends, family, and Rass. Just the way it should be. Friendsgiving #1 Last Friday was a busy go-go-go day because I had school, then tried to get some homework done, then rushed home like a chicken with my head cut off to make food before […]
How to: Not Get to the Point of Uncomfortable Food Baby on Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving might be one of the best days of the year…the stuffing…the pies…the mac & cheese…football…drinks…family (sometimes), but nothing NOTHING is worse than that food baby that makes you so uncomfortable you want to vomit. You know you’ve been there and you know you vow every year not to get to THAT point. Right before […]
