I love leftovers. Yes I do. I love leftovers. How ’bout you? Okay. I’ll stop now. I really love leftovers.  But mainly because I repurpose them to be completely new meals. If you’re cooking for two, like me.  Then you probably end up with leftovers all the time.  I’ve heard tell that some husbands exist …

A few days ago, I wrote about a lot of fun ways to celebrate Valentine’s Day if you are a foodie, like me. But my absolute favorite way to celebrate Valentine’s Day is to cook for the person I love. I won’t be cooking this Valentine’s Day since we will be out of town.  But …

Some people have a pasta weakness. I am not one of those people. My vices usually contain chocolate and sugar and wine. Although, not necessarily all at one time. However, every once in a while I want to indulge in a pasta dish.  It’s a nice change of pace from my typical carb choices like …

Mine and Brad’s honeymoon, like all honeymoons, was a time to celebrate our love. But being in such a gorgeous place like Italy, meant we got to celebrate other loves as well. Like our love of wine… wine by the sea wine at a vineyard wine by the taste wine by the glass wine by …

I feel like I owe you guys an update on my Sugar Detox plan. I have to admit, this time around, my sugar detox has been much more challenging for me. I haven’t been 100% perfect, but I have abstained from everything on my “Bad List” about 95% of the time. There have a been …
