Mint Chocolate Chip Whoopie Pies
Last week I stopped by the library to pick up a book I'd requested that had recently come in (this one, if you're curious). I was running a ton of errands that day so the plan was a quick hit and run... Continue reading »

Coffee-Rubbed Cheeseburgers with Texas Barbecue Sauce

New York-Style Crumb Cake
We hosted brunch last weekend to celebrate Mother's Day, and as usual, I fretted way too much over the menu. I love entertaining, but trying to narrow down all of the ideas in my head into a cohesive... Continue reading »

As I've mentioned before, I record Martha Stewart's show every day. I rarely have the time to watch every minute of every episode though, so instead I fast forward through to the segments that... Continue reading »

I only have one rule when it comes to dinner on Friday: I don't want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen to make it happen. Sometimes that means we'll pick up take-out, but most of the time I still... Continue reading »

Cinnamon Raisin Bagels
I've been itching to make these cinnamon raisin bagels for quite some time. In years past, I'd attempted plain and whole wheat, but all along I had my eye on the ultimate goal - this recipe right... Continue reading »

Spicy Poblano Burgers with Chipotle Cream
I am a huge wimp when it comes to spicy food. Aside from the occasional buffalo wing (and even then I always choose the mild sauce when given the option), I almost never order anything spicy at a... Continue reading »

Tequila-Orange Grilled Shrimp
Shrimp isn't my favorite seafood to eat, but it's my favorite to buy. And by favorite, I mean least stressful. I know the "rules" about buying shrimp so it's quick and easy to pick out what I want... Continue reading »
