Alright y’all…remember that last post (super yummy brunch casserole) where I told you we put the ‘For Sale’ in our front yard? Well, we received an offer on our house the next day, accepted it the day after that and had the home inspection done three days later. We had a handful of showings for two days and I am so thankful we didn’t have to do more than that! Exclamation point! This is my first experience selling a home and (more…)

I’ve mentioned selling our house a couple times on the blog, but today we officially put the for sale sign in the yard and suddenly it’s real! It’s very exciting, but a little nerve wracking at the same time since we don’t know where we’re going next yet! Minor detail, right? The thing is, I’m a planner. I like to (more…)

For the most part, I’m all about comfort foods this time of year. It’s cold outside, the ground is covered with snow, the winds are gusting and I can’t get enough soups, mashed potatoes and chicken and noodles. Not to mention (more…)

It’s the day after the Superbowl and I am thrilled the Philadelphia Eagles came out on top! Not only are they my brother in law’s team, but I love stories about ‘underdogs’ winning! What a great game it was too, exciting to watch from start to finish! Remember the trick play turned touchdown by the Eagles on 4th and goal early in the game? I’ll gladly watch that on repeat today. Plays like that make football fun to watch. And bonus points for the amazing halftime performance by JT and the fact Bradley Cooper got to see his Eagles win in person giving his adoring fans a flashback to (more…)

Food blogs should never be limited to only recipe sharing. That will typically be the focus around here, but when I’m lucky enough to find products, companies, small businesses, non profit groups and/or experiences that leave an (more…)

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 and this past one was busy, but it finally led me to a relaxing Sunday morning with perfect (more…)

To the person who made brussel sprouts the new cool veggie, thank you! As roasted brussel sprouts started popping up on appetizer menus at our favorite local spots we eventually gave them a try and I basically fell in love. For a while, roasted was the only way I ate brussel sprouts and then one day I tried a shredded brussel sprouts salad at Cooper’s Hawk (lovely winery I highly recommend for the food and wine!) and my love grew a little bit more. So for our family Christmas this year I decided to take

Something wonderful happened a few weeks ago – a box full of fresh (frozen) meats showed up right on my doorstep ready to be packed away in our freezer and supply us with delicious meals for months. That actually sounds a little questionable if I leave it at that, doesn’t it? I’ll explain further. We have some awesome family members involved with the company (more…)

I officially have just under 16 hours to post one more Christmas treat before the holiday has come and gone again. And what better time to sit down and write than my favorite part of Christmas day when everyone else in the house is still asleep (including our puppy Max who is still sleeping in bed with my husband – he is not a morning dog!) and the only light in the room is coming from the tree. It truly is magical. It’s always been my favorite moment to reflect on the true meaning of the holiday, remind myself of the generous amount of blessings in life even after a particularly tough year and arguably most importantly (more…)

Do foods have stereotypes too? Because meatloaf has always felt like a Sunday meal to me. I bet it’s the Sunday special at several restaurants and the last time I heard my brother mention making meatloaf to his girlfriend he said “you’ll probably want to make that on Sunday, right?”. It takes me back to my childhood…my parents cooking meatloaf and mashed potatoes for dinner as the (more…)
