Holy cheese & rice. I decided to wear shorts today (75 degrees is definitely the new 90) and I am pretty sure I am still blind in my left eye due to alabaster leg pigment (apparently my right eye was suiting an eye patch at the time of exposure).  Move over Sean Patrick Flannery, this girl […]

Mondays are meant for looking through your weekend photos and wishing you could rewind back to two days ago, or fast forward yourself to Friday. And since I’m no Doc Brown, here’s to looking back 😉 The “Picture Perfect” Yolk. Obviously not talking about the unruly egg on the right. The best way to achieve […]

  I just would like to point out the fact that even though there is both “healthy” & “mini” in the title of this recipe, it does not give you the right of passage to consume the entire meal in one day. I almost feel like I deserve food poisoning at this point due to […]

Put your hands in the air if you are as excited as I am about the Super Bowl. The commercials, live music performances (fingers crossies that Queen ‘Yonce OR Adam Levine pulls a Janet Jackson.

I’m tired. I’m so tired that I’ve accidentally kicked my clicker under the couch and am ‘stuck’ watching the Kardashians marathon that is slowly turning my brain in to overcooked pasghetti.  What you don’t know is that I love overcooked pasghetti, so bring it. Urrrrrrrr #sorrynotsorry Lately I’ve had a thing for whiskey in my […]

My sister got my son a full drum set (cymbals & all) for Christmas. I don’t think I have ever hated live music more than I do now. I’m not kidding you. He’s so terrible. He can’t even keep a beat.  You probably think I’m being incredibly harsh and am one of those non-encouraging parents […]

If I was told that the only food that I could have for the rest of my life was butter chicken? I’d die a happy (and probably smelly) death. Seriously. The entire time I was making this my son kept saying “pee-ew”. Sadly he also seems to use that phrase whenever he sees me changing.  Not […]
