I know Labor Day has passed and “technically” we’re not supposed to wear white clothing or open toed sandals anymore. But, before you completely say goodbye to summer, unpack the boots and sweaters, and cover up the grill, you’ve got to try this grilled curry chicken recipe. Better yet, if you live in South Florida, like me.. you could make … More Grilled Curried Chicken
If you read last week’s post, you got a small glimpse into understanding why my uncle fell in love with Maine. Not only did he find Lori, the great love of his life, there, but he also got to enjoy all of the lighthouses, lobster, music, breweries, and genuinely kind people that the state has to offer. … More Maine – Eats & Drinks
A couple of weeks ago, Patrick and I took our third annual trip to Maine. Our visit each summer to the Pine Tree State has easily become my favorite week out of the entire year. I always leave feeling mentally refreshed and filled to the brim with new creativity. Our first summer in Maine, Patrick and I spent the most … More Uncle Jimmy’s House Seasoning
Growing up, my sisters and I never really had a traditional birthday cake at our parties. Instead, my mom or grandmother would sometimes buy, but mostly bake, us whatever our favorite dessert happened to be that year, throw a few candles on it, and call it our “birthday cake”. For Allison, my oldest sister, that meant either a pecan pie … More Blueberry Crumble
Well.. hello! For the past couple of months I’ve been settling into a life that looks pretty different than the one I was living when I last posted. Within a two week period I changed jobs, we bought and moved into our first home, and added a wild, but precious puppy to our family. Along with the bigger life changes, we also … More Mustard-Balsamic Baked Chicken

But, then there are those other times in life that all of the changes come barreling towards you at once, and all you can do is jump, full speed … More Stuffed Peppers
This past weekend I went to a Brunch and Clothing Swap with a lovely group of ladies from our church. We chatted about girl things and brunched on breakfast casseroles, parfaits and pancakes. I even got to rock one precious baby to sleep. I honestly can’t think of many ways to better spend a Saturday. Brunch with friends is always … More Italian Sausage & Spinach Strata
Great news, you guys! I have finally uncovered the secret to a man’s heart. It’s a method that works especially well when you really need for him to agree to something he may otherwise not. For example – buying a puppy. Whatever your problem is, the solution is roasted brussel sprouts served with lemon yogurt sauce. I would also recommend throwing a little … More Roasted Brussel Sprouts with Lemon Yogurt Sauce
Let’s talk about mashed cauliflower. Recipes have been circulating around for a while now about this dish, praising it as the “low carb, low calorie alternative” to potatoes. The “healthy version” of comfort food. It’s even been referred to as “mock” mashed potatoes! While, yes, it could technically be any of those things, it’s also just really, dang … More Mashed Cauliflower
Happy Saint Patrick’s Day! Considering that green is my favorite color, I have a certain affection for the name Patrick, and I’m 40% Irish (according to my ancestry aficionado sister, Allison) – I feel like I have no other option but to celebrate this day! I intended to make a traditional Shepherd’s Pie in honor of the patron saint, but … More Mediterranean Meatballs
