When you are invited to a party and you need to come up with something to bring on short notice, I always suggest checking your pantry to see what you have on hand.

Chili Lime Roasted Peanuts
In the U.S. the Super Bowl is practically a national holiday, and food takes center stage. Nothing reminds me more of watching the ‘big game’ than some peanuts and beer.

Black and White Trend Hot for Spring 2014
The high contrast, black and white trend for this spring is easily my favorite. Vogue featured black and white checks seen on the runways at Balmain, Ralph Lauren and Rodarte.

Eyebrow Shapers and Definers Under $7

My… View Post
Apple Streusel Bread Pudding
I bought a gorgeous loaf of sourdough for another recipe, but before I had the chance to use it, my entire family contracted this nasty, week-long cold/flu bug.

KFC Inspired Slow Cooker Chicken Wings
My husband heard about a slow cooker chicken recipe on NPR that is supposed to rival the flavor of KFC, so we wanted to give it a try.

Brussels Sprouts and Mushroom Lasagna
When I saw this vegetarian lasagna recipe, I thought it would be a hearty winter dish, made even better with the addition of kale. My husband immediately groaned about yet another kale dish, the big baby. To quell his whining, I settled for just making it with Brussels sprouts and mushrooms, instead. I added extra sauce, cheese and basil, as I… View Post
