  • Chicken, Avocado & Pear Salad with Homemade Honey Mustard Dressing

    The title of this post is a little long. I could have just titled it Homemade Honey Mustard Dressing, because that’s really the star of the show here.

  • Egg Salad

    Hi friends! I hope everyone had a great 4th of July and long holiday weekend away from the office! We kept it pretty low key and went to the movies while it rained (saw the movie ‘Yesterday’ and definitely found it entertaining!), enjoyed a little boating when the sun was out and ended our evenings…

  • Potato Soup

    What a tease for my Instagram followers; I posted a photo of this delicious potato soup telling you to stay tuned for the recipe you won’t want to miss and then waited a whole week to post said recipe! To be fair, I wasn’t just sitting around saying eh, maybe tomorrow. The week’s fly by…
