Latte Love

So I think I have a latte issue. But seriously. Looking through my Instagram profile the other day, I realize that I take mostly pictures of food (duh), my kitten, concerts, and coffee. Coffee has become it’s own category, that’s how much caffeine I’ve been consuming lately. Now the name of this blog is called … Continue reading →

PUMPKIN WEEK: Granola

Because I don’t eat enough granola (I only make it every weekend), I thought the perfect recipe to end pumpkin week with is Pumpkin Granola. Yes it sounds a little funny at first but this is my new favorite fall breakfast. And snack. And dessert. PS for those of you who are not pumpkin fans, … Continue reading →

PUMPKIN WEEK: Finally Fall

This weekend has been the perfect fall weekend. Blue skies, crisp air, and pumpkins. Fall here can’t really compete with fall in New England  but my roommate and I discovered a cute little farm where everything reminded us of home minus the changing leaves on trees. The farm was about an hour and a half … Continue reading →

Spaghetti Squash and Cherry Tomatoes

While Caroline has been on an amazing vacation with her family, I have been enjoying a week full of 100 degree temperatures. Seriously Texas, let’s cool down a bit ok? One thing I do love about living here is the abundance of fresh vegetables. I have become obsessed with spaghetti squash and as someone who … Continue reading →

Farmer’s Markets and Babies

How is July already over? This summer has been going by so quickly and I feel like I’ve been spending lots of time in air conditioned buildings (100 degree weather is not my thing). One of the things I do venture outside for is the farmer’s market. It has become one of my Sunday morning … Continue reading →

Blondies

Throwback to my blonde day(s) and our staple summer vacation in Maine. I could totally go for a day spent in the sun at the lake. I could also go for a big bowl of popcorn… For now I’m just going to have to enjoy these “brownies” that I made the other day in an … Continue reading →

Avocado Hummus

Whoever came up with the idea of combining avocados and chickpeas in a dip is a genius. It’s like adding the creaminess of hummus to your favorite guacamole. Or is it like adding the creaminess of guacamole to your hummus? Either way, the result is a delicious and super creamy treat that’s the perfect dip to pair with … Continue reading →

I Can’t Believe It’s Not Ice Cream

This is what happens when you are craving something sweet but you are restricted by Dietary restrictions (gluten free & dairy free) A strict budget (can’t go crazy at the grocery store) Laziness (too much effort to leave the house…you know what I’m talking about) That’s not soft serve ice cream…it’s a banana. Bananas make delicious desserts … Continue reading →

Meal in a Box

Last week was one of those weeks. Everything seemed to be happening at once and the last thing I wanted to do when I got home from work was cook. Thankfully, I had this in the back of my cupboard. If I could eat Kraft Macaroni and Cheese, trust me, I would. I would probably eat the … Continue reading →

Pomme Frites

This post was inspired by the great city of Washington DC. During my job search, I made a trip to the capitol to go on some informational interviews and spend time with my cousin. We went to Granville Moore’s where they serve frittes, ales, and moules. Since they only have a limited menu to focus on, everything … Continue reading →
