Eggs Florentine
My sister, Mad, took me to this adorable little cafe for breakfast when I visited her years ago, and that’s where I had Eggs Florentine for the first time. It was AMAZING. I’ve been on the hunt for somewhere that makes a breakfast close to as good, and always walk away disappointed. Then, I found […]
Sweet and Sour Pork
We’re learning how to make our favorite Chinese food dishes at home, or at least trying to, so when we have a craving for it we can have a, hopefully, healthier version. This sweet and sour pork is delicious. I’m a bit a fruit snood, so we always use fresh pineapple, but you can use […]
Swedish Meatballs
K loves Swedish Meatballs, and ever since we went to Ikea like, 3 or 4 years ago, and they had Swedish Meatballs, and he mentioned how much he loves them I’ve been looking for a good recipe, and planning to make them. Well, it took me 5 years of marriage, but I finally made them […]
Splish Splash, Taking a Bath

We’ve actually never bought gnocchi, always making it ourselves, at first because I couldn’t find it at the store, and now because it’s just so […]
Chai Overnight Oats
These Chai overnight oats are insanely simple, and so tasty! Chai seeds can have a really strong, almost overwhelming flavor, but when you prepare them this way, mixed with some berries (or other fruit), a bit of sweetener, and these are divine. They are also deceivingly filling. You feel like you’re barely dishing yourself a serving, […]
Being More Thankful
As a kid I was one of those weird ones that loved to write letters. I’d write letters to my brothers and sisters, I’d write notes to my dad when he went out of town, and my mom when he went out of town so she didn’t feel lonely, etc. I didn’t often receive letters […]
Our Take on The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up
I’d seen so many posts about this book, and I just made fun of it silently, balking at the idea that a book could make a difference when I was already de-cluttering and getting rid of things every 2 or 3 months. I thought I had it down, yet I was still feeling so restless […]
