I saw this this afternoon on the Today Show’s Instagram. I needed this today. “What feels like the end is often the beginning.” As you hopefully know by now, I try to be positive. But, there are some days where it just might be a little harder to coax it out than others. Feeling a…

So Happy to Spend a Little Time Together
After several months of a hectic schedule we will finally have a three day weekend off together this week! The anticipation is growing! On the agenda- relaxing, catching up on some needed sleep, eating, having some drinks, seeing some friends, some mini puppy adventures, eating, and eating. Haha… give me credit for being honest. I’m…
Why Are You Always Laughing?
I was watching my little nephew for a couple hours the other day. We went to the beach a little where we rolled in the sand and ran in and out of the waves. We then drove the “Bat Mobile (A.K.A. my car) back and hung out in the “Bat Cave (A.K.A my house)” with…
A Sandwich is a Great Way to Re-Purpose Leftovers!
Dinner was going to utilize the eggplant cutlets from our Eggplant Parmesan the other night. We wanted to make some kind of sandwich, but switch it up a little from the parm version. A sandwich is a great way to re-purpose leftovers! I was in the area so stopped by Joe Leone’s- our local Italian…
Whole Roasted Cauliflower
A whole roasted cauliflower tastes just as impressive as it looks on the table! It takes some time to make, but is a really simple process. Preheat the oven to 425 and fill a small pyrex or other oven safe dish about half-way with water. This is important to keep the moisture locked in the…
Summer Cocktails and Sunshine
I’ll be honest, I know how to work a wine opener, twist off a cap, pull up a tab, and even pop open a cork. However, I am no bartender. Usually, when it comes time to make a cocktail (our old standby is a Hendrick’s martini with blue cheese stuffed olives), C is on duty. …
Yes, You Can Find Bargains at Whole Foods!
Seriously, how can you beat $1.69 a pound for a Bell and Evans Whole Chicken?? As I broke apart this juicy chicken for Baby Bell’s food (she has no idea how lucky she is), I knew I had to write about this. Yes, you can find bargains at Whole Foods! I’m almost scared, as I love…
Steak Night
We like to squeeze every last drop out of the time we have together. As probably mentioned before, or as at least as you most certainly could surmise, we make eating an event because often that is what time we have together. C got out several hours early on Saturday so we were so looking…
From Couch to “pounding the pavement”
You know how sometimes things “just stick”? There doesn’t seem to be a rhyme or reason for it at that particular time, but sometimes it just does. I had always said I didn’t “get” running. I could see it to run and get the ball or to run to tackle someone or to run…
Friday Pizza Night
We were probably overdue for a Pizza Friday! Pretty much our favorite! We tend to get a little carried away. But, it is a great way for us to create when we have time to cook together. We brainstorm ideas for pizza and usually zero in on 3 to make. Thankfully we don’t eat them…
