Hooray! It is starting to feel like spring. The birds are chirping like crazy, the grass is greening up and rumor has it there are some baby bunnies hopping around our neighborhood. (I can’t wait to see the bunnies!) Another big sign of spring is seeing all the stuff you should have gotten done around …

Where Do Chicken Babies Come From?
It is that time of year….deviled egg season. When I started to create this year’s variations, I had to admit something to myself. I don’t know where chicken babies come from. One of our friends brought me 2 dozen beautiful, fresh farm eggs. Talk about authentic…they still had hay and poop on them! (The poop …
Luck O’ The Leftovers
Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Did you get your fill of corned beef and cabbage? It seems like this year St. Patrick’s “Day” went on for weeks. People seemed to have started the o’chatter very early. (See how I added the o’ to make it more Irish?) I actually find the holiday really amusing because most …
Happy Pi Day: Bon Appétit’s March Cook the Cover
Is it irrational for me to celebrate Pi Day this year? Pi Day is celebrated on March 14th (3/14). Pi (Greek letter “π”) is the symbol used in mathematics to represent a constant, the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. (Do you remember this from school?) The approximation to 3 digits …
Time is a Changin’ Mac and Cheese
Change. People really have a hard time accepting change. Adjusting to something out of the ordinary seems to throw most people off balance. (I say off balance because it is nicer than calling people crazy.) The time change this weekend is a big one for a lot of people. There are certain people in my …
Happy Singles Awareness Day
Valentine’s Day. If you have a schmoopie-woopie, cuddle-pie in your life, you probably look forward to a day of love and romance. (Or if you are married it is just another day that ends in ‘y’.) But this year I want to focus on my readers who don’t have that special someone in their life. …
Ravioli Potsticker
I have a shocking confession to make to you today. I hope you are sitting down. Put down any hot liquids so you don’t burn yourself. Ready? I am not perfect. (Sit for a second and let this shocking news sink in before you read any further.) It is kind of like a supermodel that …
Cabin Fever Kimchi Fried Rice
There are a lot of things I am going to remember about the winter of 2013/2014. I, obviously, will remember the innate amount of snow. (Thank you hubby for using your big, strong muscles to clear the driveway so nicely.) I will remember the crazy cold days like this morning’s temperature of -15. Brrrrr. But …
Olive Juice Sisters
Sisters. They are interesting creatures. For some people, they are their best friends. For other people, they are your worst enemies. You are raised together and share similar experiences and yet your lives can seem like you have been raised on separate planets. Some sisters look alike their entire lives while others have only mere …
Jamaican Me Twerk Chicken
I really try to think that I keep up with current events, trends and pop culture. But in all honesty, I know I am always a little bit behind what people are talking about at the water cooler. (Or do people just catch up holding their Nalgene bottles?) But there is one thing that I …
