I’m going to preface this whole entire post with “I am not a gardener.” I’ve never been one, probably never will be, and, admittedly, get most of my summer produce from coworkers, neighbors, and gym members whose gardens are overflowing with zucchini, peppers, tomatoes, and herbs this time of the year. In fact, thanks to…

Spinach Dip
Well, my friends… It’s the first week of December, which means it’s time to kick off the 12 Days of Christmas Cookies, except this year, there are no cookies.

5 Minute Personal Tortilla Pizza
How many times have you wanted pizza, only to be faced with the sad reality that meant you either 1) needed to order one 2) would have a crap ton leftover or 3) would need it delivered and what place is going to deliver you just one slice? If you’re a normal human being, the…

You’re likely to see recipes that I’m working on, my messy kitchen, and the occasional session of photo editing. I’ll usually get…

Are you feeling the lingerings of the holiday season? Perhaps in your sluggishness or even your waistline? My pants are definitely tighter…
Eva’s Parmesan Parsley Bread
So… I meant to share this recipe with you back in April. Yep, April, when my family and I celebrated/remembered what would have been my paternal grandmother’s 100th birthday. Buuuuut life got a little crazy (hello cookbook, celebrating year 2, my BIL’s wedding, a killer vacation, all the other weddings we went to this year, and…
