There was a point last week that I ate Mexican food 3 days in a row...not mad about it, even a little bit. Day 3 happened to be these Carne Asada Tacos. And let me tell you...if there had been leftovers, I would've had them the next day and made it 4 days in [...]
Hawaii is 2 weeks away!! AND it's our first trip without Landon. I have never been away from him overnight. At first, as the trip got closer and closer I was having SO much anxiety about leaving him. Mostly just because I'm such a control freak and he and I are with each other ALL [...]
I have a confession...I love having friends and family over, hosting dinner parties & BBQs and cooking for lots of people. Problem...I'm not actually very good at it! I mean, the food is great and I'd like to think we create a fun environment but every single time, I spend a lot of the time [...]

Me: I don't want to cook! Husband: Oh no! Husband: What is more unhealthy? Pizza or chicken nachos? Me: Hahaha! I think they [...]
This lasagna has seriously taken over as a staple in my house. We don't do pastas too often because we try to stay away from starchy carbs (and because we are too lazy to workout) but I decided to give this a try and substituted gluten-free lasagna rice noodles instead of regular lasagna noodles (not [...]
I recently bought a new cookbook, My Paris Kitchen by David Lebovitz, and this is the first recipe I tried. I'm hooked. The cookbook is full of amazing French recipes, explanations of French cooking techniques and beautiful pictures. If you want to try something new in the kitchen, I highly recommend it! The recipe in [...]
