Calzones for dinner! Gosh, I love this meal! I picked up a few slices of Applegate chorizo when I was at the deli counter and it was heavenly in between tomato sauce and mozzarella. And the WF wheat dough has grown on me. Twas sooo satisfying to eat this guy. So I didn’t really know it was Fat Tuesday until today. I’m just not with it these days. The family I babysit for had a King’s Cake fresh from a…

And the fun continues! My sister was in town this weekend, so I was able to spend the day hanging out with family. The girls headed to the mall to do a little maternity shopping (and a little spring shopping for me!). Love the colors in the stores these days – I got two spring dresses and cannot wait for warm weather. We had a nice lunch at Panera and did a little relaxing this afternoon. We also did a…
Hi, In case you were wondering, the beer tasting went well (duh). The Moo Hoo won by a long shot and I’d definitely buy it again. Matt actually picked out a fancy Southern Tier beer for me too (but I’m saving it….). We must know each other well! I’m back to being overwhelmed at work, so I wasn’t in the greatest of moods this evening. I def. have a love-hate relationship with working part-time. I feel phenomenal having more time…
Hello, hello. I made lasagna for my valentine, since he has class tomorrow night. I need to make this more often – it’s so easy and so good. I assembled it earlier in the day and just popped it in the oven this evening. However, I forgot that it takes an hour and it was torture smelling it when I was hungry and waiting for it to cook! This was kind of a last-minute decision, so I used shredded carrots,…
Brrrr. It’s been a chilly weekend here, so I did what I do best – stayed inside and ate good food! Matt was out of town Friday, so I took myself to Fuqua Friday for dinner and drinks. Only when I arrived, the usual buffet had been replaced by a million people wearing hair nets! Turns out, Fuqua students and staff were stuffing thousands of bags with rice and seasonings to send off to a Stop Hunger campaign. It was…
We’re very happy in this household. Not just because of The Win, but because Matt got another job offer! Now he just has to decide – which will affect the location: DC, Dallas, or Atlanta?? I’m also pleased, because Kat introduced me to a fabulous recipe that I made tonight and loved! Loaded with flavor and veggies and very satisfying. We haven’t been cooking with much meat lately, so it was nice to get a big hunk of chicken:) My…
Sometimes simple is best. Bow-ties with feta chicken sausage, arugula, and white cheddar. Hit the spot. Bow ties with shredded cheese always reminds me of one of my friends who would make “homemade mac n cheese” when we were in middle school. Tonight is the infamous basketball rivalry and I’m looking forward to a beer on a weeknight. I don’t have my hopes up though, because I’ve learned that the outcome is pretty much random. That’s why it’s such a…
Hi Friends. This was one of the best dinners I’ve ever made. And it just materialized at the last minute in my kitchen! You see, I had Matt turn the crock pot on this morning, with a bottle of TJ’s bbq sauce, a can of beer, and some pork shoulder inside. But I didn’t really have any ideas as to how I wanted to eat it. I usually like saucy meats over rice, but had the urge for something different.…
Gym, lunch meeting, computer work, dinner. Ya know, the usual Monday. But this is one of my very favorite dinners! This time, with spanish rice, kidney beans, sweet potatoes, avocado, real sour cream (!) and sweet potato chips. I was in heaven for the whole bowl. Speaking of bowls, this reminds me of my super bowl creation. We’ve been invited to two parties this year, so I’m looking forward to seeing what people are serving. After all, food is more…
