Pollo Fricassee (Chicken in Red Wine)

January 15, 2013

It’s been coooold! Like frozen purple toes cold. My house has a huge open living room with cathedral ceilings and it’s virtually impossible to warm. As of late my wardrobe has been flannel pants, an oversize hoodie, wool socks and a blanket. Let’s be honest the blanket is really an accessory, because an outfit is never [...]

Raise Your Hand If

January 4, 2013

The first time you ever got on the Internet was in college. You played LPs. You made mix tapes. You had a poster of New Kids on the Block in your bedroom. You had a pager before you had a cell phone. The shows you watch in high school are now on Nick at [...]

Savory Bread Pudding

December 5, 2012

The Christmas party circuit has begun. All of the sudden, you turn around, look at your calendar and realize that you have something going on almost every weekend. I would bet there is a lot of food involved, too. Cookie parties, recipe exchanges, progressive dinners, potlucks — you name it, it’s happening somewhere. Last week [...]

September 24, 2012

OB and I have jumped on a plane and ran away to FL to visit his tribe (clan would be too Scottish), who I love dearly. While we are here we are hitting the beach, hanging with the fam and enjoying my MIL’s home cooking where she does it old school. In honor of my [...]
